16 hours ago, baroquenspirit said:Tomlin's explanation was entirely reasonable...he was watching the big screen, saw the play was coming up on him and planted his foot to jump out of the way.
Watch at the 40 second mark he turns his head towards the game, about 8 yards from jones. You would think that if he wasn't intentionally trying to do it, he would have:
1. Not stood on the field
2. Not been looking over his should at the field where jones was
3. Not taken his sweet time to react
4. Not "planted" his leg farther into the field to disrupt the running lane
5. Not smirked like he knew he got away with something
6. Been seen doing this at literally any other time in his coaching career
Seems like quite the indefensible act, water under the bridge at this point though. At least the good guys still won.
Cmon man the dude was throwing check downs all day
Bad technique :/
I really have to disagree with this. Did you see the Steeler's offense when Vick and Landry were in there for Ben? It was awful. They can not take advantage of Brown's speed at all, and make far worse decisions with the ball than Ben does. If Ben had been in that game, the Ravens would have been blown out.
I agree with Ben playing qb we lose. But if it was Ben playing, instead of bell, I think we take it. Look at the playoff game last year. Not to mention Ben's playing the best football of his career coincidentally now that bell has grown into the best dual threat back in the game. With Landry in, didnt they wash up the Cardinals, a team many considered super bowl favorites?
Anyway, the only part of jacksonville that scares me is Allen Robinson and his explosiveness. The good guys should be able to at least keep pace with bortles and co. at home. We have to get a TO one of these games right? Bortles isn't known for his accuracy.
1. No, we NARROWLY beat the steelers at home because their kicker missed about FIVE field goals and BEN was NOT PLAYING.
2.the Bengals are FAR better than they were when they played us. Currently 6-0 I believe.
3. Alex Smith just blew out the Lions, whose defense is probably as good if not better than ours.
1. I think Bell is more crucial to their* offensive success than Ben is, especially in December when they play us on the road.
2. By then the Bengals will in all likelihood have the division wrapped up and probably be resting starters. On the otherhand they may be playing for top seed. Regardless, the Bengals game will probably be close until the end, as per usual.
3. The last team i think that could blow us out is the cheifs. Alex smith is alergic to throwing more than 5 yards which seems to be the only offense our defense can play well against.
I'd wager that the last to spots will go to a 9-7 team which still leaves room for error. I think going 7-1 the last 8 has the same chance as us going 2-6 the first 8. This is a strange year, we can only get better.
There is not one team left on our schedule capable of blowing us out. Weve been in everygame this year with a chance to win. Why is it far fetched to beleive that we will at least be in everygame for the rest of the season? I refuse to beleive we can be any worse, we have seen the bottom of this team. 8-8 may even get in this year we could be 5th seed!
Steve smith achilles? He was visibly shaking from crying i beleive.
Looked like what Lee Evans failed to catch

How unlikely would it be for Miami to trade Jarvis Landry?? The guy has pretty much everything we need in a wideout except size.
