Time to force another fumble

Darnit...

Carlos toasted again. And that leads to giving them a TD. Needs to play better than that.

If Carter weren't held he would have gotten to Carr before the pass was thrown.

And they didn't make them eat up much of the clock.

Wow the refs sure called that real quick

Unfortunately no TV down here so couldn't see that.

Wow that ball never crossed the line and what ever Redskin that was that smacked it out of his hand made sure.

What the heck, it's not even clear he crosses the goal line and the ref is saying it's good. On ours, we clearly cross the goal line and it takes them forever to signal it.

Hope we try to keep moving on O and not just run out the clock.

Fortunately, we are managing to do both.

Carlos is in a predicament in that situation...

You can look at it one of 2 ways.

1. When I played sometimes you were taught to save the TD if you were beat. Take the penalty and stop the sure TD.

2. He could have played the ball and possibly caught it or misjudged it completely. '

Nice, I was afraid they'd go in the way conservative mode.

SCSkinsFan · Post by **SCSkinsFan** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:32 pm

Time to start another streak.

thaiphoon · Post by **thaiphoon** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:32 pm

I like the fact that we're commited to running the ball

thaiphoon · Post by **thaiphoon** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:34 pm

Nice block Dockery !!

thaiphoon · Post by **thaiphoon** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:34 pm

11 penalties is not good guys

vtfootball07 · Post by **vtfootball07** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:34 pm

the o-line needs to stop committing penalties, this will not be acceptable against Jacksonville next week

For those who have played the offensive line position please answer this.

When a linemen holds is it more reactionary or is it something they do on purpose in hopes of not having it caught by the refs?

SCSkinsFan · Post by **SCSkinsFan** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:35 pm

Laundry on Thrash nagated a good run.

thaiphoon · Post by **thaiphoon** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:36 pm

Nice Run Betts !! Good block Dockery !!!

Someone told me that holding is on EVERY play but it's only called/caught on some.

SCSkinsFan · Post by **SCSkinsFan** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:36 pm

Betts running it!

Yep, holding occurs on EVERY play.

I think Rock runs through arm tackles better than Betts.

Put JC and TJ in!

dnpmakkah · Post by **dnpmakkah** » Sun Sep 24, 2006 3:37 pm

Damn did you guys see the shot of Portis and Betts side by side. Portis looks so much more bigger then Betts yet he is considered the power back.
