Below is my original post. In the OP I said that it's not apparent when they made the swap. Someone else pointed out half-time. The slipping stopped at some time during the game.chiefhog44 wrote:Secondly, you are acting like they waited until halftime to make changes and that's speculative at best.

Helu, Hightower, D-Hall were slipping left and right. Especially our RB's, because they like to plant and make that initial cut. The running game was abysmal last night and that did not help.
Somebody else mentioned that was when they noticed the diference. Yes, speculation.chiefhog44 wrote:Thirdly, this thread is about someone suggesting the players waited until halftime to change their spikes, as if they were in the locker room and helped retape the players. So, unless you were a fly on the wall in the locker room at half, or you heard one of the players speaking about it, or you WERE the equipment manager in the locker room at half and you helped replace the shoes, you have no business discussing something you have no idea about.
What? That we're speculating and discussing something that happened during the game? LMAO. Hello sir, nice to meet you. This is the internet and we're currently located on at a forum. This is where you discuss, speculate and debate. That is the purpose of this magical realm of 1's and 0's.chiefhog44 wrote:THAT'S what's laughable.
Your problem is that you're getting hung up on this whole half-time thing. Toss that out the window. Myself, and anyone not named Stevie Wonder saw MULTIPLE players slip, MULTIPLE times. By the 3rd time your RB slips in a game were the running game CANNOT GET GOING, something has to change. That's the root of this discussion. Be it in the 1st qtr, 2nd qtr or not at all.chiefhog44 wrote:Until I hear one of the players stating that's what happened
You keep harping on and on about testing the surface out pre-game. I don't give a flying you-know-what about pregame. If during the real game, you know, the one that counts, you are slipping are your players are slipping. Someone needs to grow a brain and make a change.
