I would still like to know when the last time a ball carrier was called for unnecessary roughness in the NFL. I've never once seen that call in all the years I've been watching games. How come they didn't consult Mike Pereira on that play? And why do they have him on TV anyway? He's always so wishy-washy and doesn't contribute anything to the big plays. His favorite phrases are "maybe" and "I don't know."

What game were you watching?

I saw a well played game that was back and forth. Sometimes you have to tip your hat. Atlanta is a very good team. They don't make mistakes and they're well coached.

One fumble doesn't classify as self-destructing in my opinion.

I've never seen that called either, and I've seen lots and lots of stiffarms over the years. That was very strange.

I'm not sure why you have such a problem with Pereira. Every time I've seen him consulted, he's been correct about the call, as he was again today.

I seem to remember many a play where AP has pushed peeps (including the helmet) away as he plowed ahead.

Thanks for quoting me -- helped me catch my typo. ;)

I disagreed with the officials on the catch near the end zone today. From what I could see, the receiver never established possession before hitting the ground. I was surprised they didn't rule it an incompletion. Not that it would have materially affected the outcome of the drive, of course.

I disagree with your opinion on Mike Pereira. He's always right, and I think it's good to have him on TV. He provides the explanation that the referee so often doesn't give.

Maybe you've watched more of him than I have, then. I've never once seen him disagree with the officials.

That's what I'm saying. He always predicts the outcome correctly. And he explains why the call was or wasn't made.

To me it's not just "one fumble." It's a longstanding pattern. Just this season, I would include the Bears game, the Redskins and Dolphins games, among others.

Actually, Bob McGinn had a very interesting blurb in his article about injuries, and despite everyone with the Packers top brass downplaying their importance, they have to be taken into account.

This year, the special teams have probably been hit the hardest due to injuries. They've lost Neal, Martin, Bigby, and Poppinga to injuries, and on top of that have lost Peprah, Bishop, Zombo, and Jackson due to them being inserted into the starting lineup and being asked to play a bigger role on D / O.

I'm not saying we should give the Special Teams free pass - NSD points out they were consistently giving up the decent starting field position.

Yet, it may be a bit much to demand excellence from our ST considering we've had so much turnover on the units.

Giving up that long return, though, is inexcusable. You just cannot do that, especially when you know the circumstances. That is unacceptable. Unfortunately, if anything we're going to see downgrades in ST personnel since there is the possibility that injuries may happen on O or D. Coach Slocum has gotta figure out a way to make the ST units work consistently each and every play.
