    I'm in the minority in liking Gruden as well. Buck, meh.

      I found the postgame on ESPN entertaining, with Ray Lewis slamming Peterson about how his kids now have to go to school and be ridiculed for being "Peterson's kids." I don't think he was talking from experience as a tabloid object, but more as a father. Pot calling the kettle black here.

        I wonder how many of Peterson's kids even know who their father is, and how many have his name, either.

        same oddities last year, naive people reaching out on social media for AP on oh, how can he overcome the loss of - ok, a kid he never even met.

        a lot of the same people (literally not talking about anyone here, just the innerwebs) who don't want to be judgmental about a guy having 5 or 6 babies from an equal amount of baby mommas are outraged when one of the kids is injured. ignore the kid for his whole life? hey, up to you. but spend some time with him and dole out a physical injury? NOW you've crossed a line.

          Exactly. Looked pretty textbook in real time, and on something like that they will ALWAYS throw the flag if there's a doubt. I saw nothing wrong with the identical call that went against the Eagles last week, and I see nothing wrong with the call that went for them this week.

            Neither. The Colts found a play, the weak side counter, that the Eagles kept overreacting to. Richardson mostly sucked on plays that weren't that, and the Eagles allowed nothing on the ground to the Jaguars last week (which may not be saying much.)

              The minute Ray Lewis shows up on my TV set, I either mute it or change channels.

                would be nice if they clued in the MNF announcers on that.

                  Funny that a guy who at the very least was somehow associated with a murder, gets to comment on a guy's character. I also turn him off. Though, one of the funniest skits I have ever seen on SNL was from the guy who played Ray Lewis last year..... that made me actually laugh out loud while watching TV, which is something I never do.

                    Thankfully I watched the game in a bar where I couldn't hear the sound.

                      you did notice the blatant penalty on the key INT though that wasn't called though, right?


                      I can see that play alone having the NFL mull yet another adjustment to replay next year, like reviewing all turnovers to see if an uncalled penalty directly led to the turnover, as it did there. It rarely would come up, but we'd avoid that scenario in the future.

                        Some experts have argued it wasn't a penalty.
                        Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?

                            Mike Golic and Marcellus Wiley are two I heard today.

                              Yes, there was quite an intense discussion about it on a Philly sports board I frequent. One guy posted a bunch of stills from the play to illustrate his point that it wasn't a penalty.

                              Cris Carter blamed Hilton for running a terrible route that allowed him to lose his balance easily.
