Really, so over three years the Packers haven't had 3-4 (I said half of the examples weren't really dirty at all) times in the past three years were one player lost his temper a little too much or one guy made a stupid decision? It happens... it's a full contact sport with a lot of...
Honestly I'm really surprised by the number of people here who just accept that the Lions are a dirty team. I've seen evidence of 6, maybe 8 dirty plays (perhaps only half of which really are dirty plays) over three years under Schwartz and everyone just figure: "Oh that's why everything is."...
Did you look at the replay? Did you see that:
1.) It was NOT a forearm shiver?
2.) It was NOT directed to the helmet?
I certainly don't blame the official for throwing the flag there. It sure seemed like a forearm to the head in real time. Especially from the direction in which the...
Here's my thoughts to reduce injuries:
Allow receivers to signal fair catch on passes.
Put flags on the QB and a defender is only allowed to pull off the flag to "tackle" him.
Eliminate Kickoffs, just always start on the 20.
No player is allowed to weight more than 250 pounds.
Eliminate punts...
Not sure if I follow... are you basically saying that I shouldn't look at this forum then I wouldn't know that Packers fans think the Lions are dirty? If that's what you are saying, you're not addressing my complaint at all. My complaint is that you said:
I pointed out three times when I...
For what it's worth, I just watched the highlights from the Lions-Panthers game. Six times I saw Delmas involved in plays attempting to tackle or get to the ball runner. All six times he hit at chest level and did not lead with the helmet. Now obviously this is just the highlights and this...
When? Can you give me some examples? I think Suh just has the rep now (semi-deserved because of two widely shown incidences of mauling QBs) and people then just figure "yeah... he's dirty!"
Dude... did you even read my posts? I said one of Suh's plays was blatantly bad. No defense what so ever. I said that two of Delmes' plays were bad plays. What more do you want?
Oh, absolutely. I mean those 4 or 5 videos? Yeah, that's what the Lions players do every week, every play. And every...
Thanks for finding that.
I wish we could see more of what happened before the play. I would hope that this would show that Delmas slipped or something cause what I see is pretty bad.
I really think you are over stating what Suh has done. Even if you assume all the plays indicated above were intentionally dirty... that's like 5 plays out of how many? And I know that for a fact that they aren't all dirty.
Nope. And when I felt they were dirty/inexcusable I said as much.
I don't think my shades are that dark:
I try to be fair... I'm sure I'm not 100% fair, I am a fan after all. But I don't try to dismiss something that my team did while railing against something the opposing team did. There have been plenty of times where I've really questioned calls on...
Hmm.... still pictures can be misleading. They don't show the action that lead up the moment captured on film. But that doesn't look good at all. I'd really like to see the video... but based on just this picture, the play certainly does not look like a good clean hit.
Bull crap. If he did, there would be a LOT more evidence for it because he's had plenty of opportunities.
RE: Dalton hit: I think this one looks a LOT worse than it really was. Suh had him by the upper body. Suh didn't know the pass was out and slam him to the ground. The helmet popped...
I don't think that Delmas was attempting to do a helmet to helmet hit there. This is one major problem I have with many of the flag that are throw against defense... the defender can't predict what the offensive player will do. What looks to be a clean hit (Suh going to grab Cutler's torso)...
