Steelers Lions game thread #RudolphGuideUs2aWin

[Gildong Sack]

for anyone saying Ben is through or his arm is shot, I sure hope they are watching the **** Rudolph is throwing up out there.

It's the rain. He was fine earlier in this game and he was dropping deep dimes on the Turds last year at the end of the season. We are too harsh on him, he's an average talent.

 

[LastRide]

no if the defense touches it first it is illegal touching

That clears that up.

 

[Paul G]

Bush with a nice open-field tackle.

Came back from getting my beer and they announcers said Devin Bush did something positive.

You're welcome.

Replay looked bad for our season.

Here from the rule book-

FIRST TOUCHING BEYOND THE LINE
Article 2 “First touching” is when a player of the kicking team touches a scrimmage kick that is beyond the
line of scrimmage before it has been touched by a player of the receiving team beyond the line. If the ball
is first touched by a player of the kicking team, it remains in play. First touching is a violation, and the
receivers shall have the option of taking possession of the ball at the spot of first touching, provided no
penalty is accepted on the play, or at the spot where the ball is dead. First touching does not offset a foul
by the receivers.
Note: If the receiving team gains possession, subsequently loses possession, and fouls after the kicking team
gains possession, the spot of first touching is disregarded, and the kicking team retains possession. See
Rule 14, Section 3, Article 1, Exception 5.
Item 1: A Team B player is deemed not to have touched a kick if such touching occurs in the immediate
vicinity of the line in an attempt to block the kick.
Item 2: If a player of the kicking team touches the goal line with any part of his body while touching the
ball, the ball is dead, and the result of the play is a touchback.
Note: The spot of first touching is normally the yard line at which the ball is at when touched. If the first touching
occurs while the ball is in the air above or beyond the goal line, and prior to the ball touching the goal line
or the ground beyond the goal line, the spot of first touching is deemed to be the spot from which the
touching player left the field of play, but in no event inside the receiving team’s one-yard line.

no the replay made it look better....knees knocking hurt like hell

 

[stillwright]

NO ******* WR REVERSE HERE DAMMIT!!!!!!!

 

[mightyguru]

C'mon Canada. Get yer head outta yer ***.

 

[tapeANaspirin2it]

It doesn't matter of the Lions didn't have possession ?.

Nope. It's a strange rule on punts. Once the kicking team touches it, the ball is sort of considered dead at that spot. But if they don't actually possess it and allow it to keep rolling, the receiving team is allowed to pick it up and advance it and if they fumbled, it would go bac to where it was touched. It's a specific rule for punt plays.

 

[mightyguru]

Noice.

 

[stillwright]

Now there is a notion....2nd and one...run it.

Damn ain’t no one got time to read all that. Lol

You're welcome.

Go get another one when we are on defense again so I can say it again.

 

[Steelz]

Some people just don't have big enough hands to throw a wet ball. We've seen Ben throw good balls in the snow and rain, Rudolph probably just don't have the grip for it. I'll reserve my judgement until Rudolph is throwing on a dry sunny day, but atleast for this game he's not doing that bad considering.

 

[wig]

I'm personally rooting for Harris to get his 1st ever 100 yard game.

Hopefully in a victory.

 

[SteelerInLebanon]

Washington is never open on those.
