Game 14: Packers @ Broncos - Sunday, Dec. 14th @ 3:25 PM

Hurt while getting blown up.

You can rightfully criticize the call but Jacobs is walking for a first down if the block does anything other than allow himself to get pancaked into the ball carrier. 

[yourout]

Better than nothing but offense will need to be better than that.

We seem to say "if" a lot when we run that play.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Big time kick. Like the call, especially on the road when you kicked off to start.

Yes, I read in a couple of places this week that they should sit Jacobs because this is an AFC game. 

LOL, that is an absolutely wild take (not your take, I know). Even if the Packers didn’t have a tie it would be a wild take. 

This is not a non-conference college football game.

[yourout]

3 missed spots already.

There's one reason you can't put a chip in the ball and identify the spot with lasers, and it's the officials union. 

[adambr2]

Does Rick Bisaccia, at any point during the week, in any week, ever address his punt return team and say, “hey. We should do something about all these punt return penalties.”?

[duewizard]

Packers Special Teams strike again!

[young guns]

That was both weak by enegbare to do that in the first place and to get a flag for it.

Easy, he has to juggle that with mismanaging the clock. 

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Just don't turn it over, please. Let McBoot launch it if we have to. 

[young guns]

Wait.  Why are we starting at the 3?  Even with the penalty we should be at the 6?  Did they not see the bronco player bat the ball backwards?

Aren’t some of those obvious ones what replay assist is for?

I thought the same thing.

It was hit at the 11

I wondered that as well. Did they seriously forget where they were supposed to spot the ball? And why wasn’t our sideline all over it?

[yourout]

Going to be some injuries in this one. 

Very physical so far.

Correct, meaning after the half the distance penalty the ball should have been spotted at the 5-6, not the 3. That’s a big difference at that area of the field in breathing room and what you can do with your offense.

Ok, maybe I've always misunderstood something.  Is it half the penalty distance or half if the distance from the goal.  I always thought it was the latter.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

The calls thus far have been beautiful. The plays develop too quickly for the blitz to matter, and that is all Denver does, along with using the run to catch them being over aggressive.

It’s half the distance to the goal, never half the distance of a penalty (unless coincidentally the same)

[HarryDoyle]

Whyle out with a concussion.

He got blasted.

So it was a missed spot as we thought. 

All have favored the broncos so far 

Wish we could have gotten a replay on the downfield
