Ok, regardless if he spit or not.. shouldn't Pittman get punished for the hit anyway?

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 05:47 PM

He pulled a Romanowski.

ok, even if he did... the retaliation (a punch, right in fron the of refs) also draws no penalty?

Icy · 01-07-2006, 05:50 PM

I guess then both should have been ejected but for sure not only Taylor.

EDIT: They just showed it again and you can see Taylor's head jerk forward a bit as if he did spit (couldn't see the spit...maybe someone with HDTV could see it?

)

If he did indeed spit, he deserved the ejection. On the other hand, giving a guy a head slap after a play is over IS a fifteen yard penalty. At worst, those penalties should have offset.

Please note, I'm not saying Taylor is right, that I wouldn't slap someone who spit in my face, or anything of the sort. Rules are rules though. A slap after the play is a slap after the play and it doesn't matter the reasoning.

sabotai · 01-07-2006, 05:53 PM

I agree, even if he did spit, Pittman should have been penalized for the head slap as well.

Yeah, SImms is awful

Nope, not terrible. But this isn't exactly a "special" performence to this point either. He's being smart. He's taking the underneath stuff open to him and he's hitting on some passes.

Yet, he's at 6 yards per pass attempt. He threw an INT which gave up a TD. And he's gotten a couple of those receivers nearly killed on the underneath routes because he isn't testing Washington more than ten yards down the field.

He's playing a solid, unspectacular game. . . just the type of game Tampa needs him to play to win the football game. Lets not act as though he's doing any "leading" or playing spectacular to this point though.

I'm not saying he's special, i just posted those stats in response to those who were acting like Alex Smith was out there.

TroyF · 01-07-2006, 05:58 PM

Dola:

When a team throws this many short passes of this type, the other team usually has one or two chances in the game for a a pic six.

As I say that, he throws his longest pass of the game. Impressive throw there. Very impressive.

Yeah, easily his best play of the game. He actually avoided a couple of sacks before getting a nice one off.

Well, if Alex Smith had Cadallic Williams, Joey Galloway and Michael Clayton and a solid O-line, then maybe.

EDIT: Not saying he is not playing a solid game today, but comparing Simms to Smith who is surrounded by ZERO talent is very unfair.

Icy · 01-07-2006, 06:02 PM

Not spectacular game... but doing what is needed to win it. Give me 100 QB's playing ugly to win than a M.Vick spectacle to lose. He had some stupid sacks for big loses, but not playing bad at all imho, he is moving the ball as he is supossed to do.

cthomer5000 · 01-07-2006, 06:06 PM

Not a great choice of plays there.

I would have to agree. 4th and 1, 90 percent of the time you should power run ... and in the 4th quarter of a playoff game, that should be like 99 percent of the time.

Agree, i'm a smashmouth guy, but even if i weren't, i would run 100% of times on 4&1.

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 06:09 PM

I just don't understand why Portis is not in the game right now.

Makes two of us.

I also don't understand why they did exactly what was expected there. Run, Run, third and long, pass.

I don't like that series at all. To much time left to worry about the clock.

If you're going to run, run it with Portis. If you're going to pass at all, do it on first or second down.

Logan · 01-07-2006, 06:14 PM

Um, maybe if Chris Simms wanted to bait Carlos Rogers into hitting him, as shown by that "bring it on" gesture, he should've stayed in fucking bounds.

TroyF · 01-07-2006, 06:14 PM

Football Gods are pissed.

Taunting players as you go out of bounds? Penalty: two incomplete passes, including the worst pass of the night on second down.

TroyF · 01-07-2006, 06:15 PM

Illegal motion. Easy call here.

edit: ummm, ok. formation? You didn't see Portis do the jab step two seconds before the ball was snapped? Great reffing there.

Portis with a huge run there.

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 06:16 PM

Keep him in the game.

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 06:18 PM

Bucs D comes up big.

TroyF · 01-07-2006, 06:20 PM

"Should have caught it"

WHAT THE HELL IS THE GUY WATCHING?

There are two calls with that play:

1) Brunell acting like a rookie QB throwing across his body in his own territory with a seven point lead. . . 'DOH

2) The great INT.

Yet somehow he found a way to blame the WR for that.

Same reason why Reggie Bush didn't play on 4th down in the Rose Bowl.

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 06:21 PM

Simms post taunt:

4 incompletions and a delay of game.

EDIT: I almost unjinxed him

Incomplete

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 06:22 PM

No catch.

st.cronin · 01-07-2006, 06:22 PM

That 3rd and 10 was a ballsy call ... almost worked too.

TroyF · 01-07-2006, 06:22 PM

And Theismann:

It doesn't hurt you that bad? WHAT, AM I IN BIZZARO WORLD HERE?

Yeah, Simms just threw a TD pass and the idiot dropped it. But now it's 4th and 10 instead of 4th and 5, and the penalty doesn't matter?

cthomer5000 · 01-07-2006, 06:24 PM

I think this call could go either way, personally.

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 06:24 PM

This has the potential to be worst overturn ever.

Which means it has to be ruled incomplete.

Gotta be conclusive.

Make that 6 incomplete passes, a dropped TD and a delay of game. ROFL

Icy · 01-07-2006, 06:26 PM

Why to throw to the end zone again? why not a 10 yards pass?

No jinx. Post taunt, not a single completion. And when the football Gods get pissed, they don't just make them all bad passes, they stick a knife in you and twist. Thust the dropped TD pass.

Desnudo · 01-07-2006, 06:28 PM

I'm thankful that these bozos are doing this game so I can keep the sound on for the Pats.

kingfc22 · 01-07-2006, 06:30 PM

Skins only have 130 total yards of offense. Anyone know what is the smallest amount of total yards a team had when winning a playoff game?

Must be woozy from his earlier tackle or at least that will be his excuse tomorrow.

Oops. Bring it on Simms. LOL
