What you don't realize is that it looks great with 5 still pictures, but in reality it happened in two seconds. You can't get every call perfect.
Except for the fact that I was screaming at my TV when it was happening live. That's why I downloaded the game, and took the screenshots... for a good laugh, I guess.

It means nothing in hindsight. I'm not really complaining. I just don't want BOTH of our pass rushers to get the same bullshit treatment from the refs. If I had the time, I could probably fill this thread with missed holds on Orakpo. I'd be willing to bet he lead the league last year, if such a stat existed.

You make him out to be good.
I'm not foolish enough to look at a 3 game sample size and make a definitive judgment on him. All I said was that you thought that he was a waste of time and even if he never plays another down for us, the signing was worth it because he's been effective in the games that he's played.

It would be logical to take 2 good teams with high powered offenses to London, but they take the Bears and Bucs. It shouldve been Lions vs. Packers or Saints vs Falcons.

It would be logical not to play games overseas. Taking away home games from the teams real fans to play in London is gay.

That wouldnt be logical for the NFL and you should get used to it.

LONDON (AP)—The NFL is considering a plan to have a few teams play regularly in Britain to build an overseas following—part of the league’s evaluation about whether a franchise could be permanently based in London.

Commissioner Roger Goodell said Saturday the league is looking into whether such a scenario would “advance our cause here by growing the fan base quicker.” He is talking to several teams about becoming regulars in the British capital, a development he thinks would be “very powerful and lead us to what we ultimately would like to do—have a franchise here in London.”

The league decided this month to keep playing in London through at least 2016, with an aim to play at least two games a year.

Goodell said multiple games in Britain could happen as early as next year, and he hopes more teams will agree to make regular trips.

“We want as many teams to come over. We want to see the more popular teams come over,” Goodell said at a question-and-answer session with international fans. “Should we focus on just a couple of teams as consistently coming back here to build a fan base around those teams? The Bucs are coming back now for a second time in a five-year period of time. And the idea is, will that allow them to build a fan base quicker?”

Having a team in London is an awful idea. No team would ever want to travel and play there after the first time because of the time zone shit.
