I immediately thought of a twilight zone spinoff. Instead of a powerball it’s a fireball. The callout would be awesome. FIREBALL!!!!!

Revolution has been my go to brew lately. They’ve really put out some good ones. Hit me up next time you're in town
Quoted from PokerJake:Not pass interference, atleast offensive. Terrible defense, he needed to turn around actually defend.
You're not allowed to push the defender away like that so yeah it is offensive pass interference.
Quoted from dirtbag66:I wonder if the "experts" still want to say the Browns missed on Carson Wentz. Dude is fragile.
I'd take him over the POS that you guys have right now that's for sure.

Yeah, it’s a real shame when somebody targets your helmet and puts you out of the game. That’s totally Carson’s fault. I think I found your street...

No one targeted his helmet and Wentz is fine, but he went into concussion protocol. I'm sure Wentz wanted to get back in there and play.

So Clowney has been knocking him around since 2015?
Interesting.
Quoted from Buzz:Tuff guy talk from a skinny nerd gets old.
Not a big fan of Collinsworth,but we he was playing he was a tough sob!The guys like 6’5” tall and when he first started playing he was 185# Ive seen highlights from his playing days he took a beating and would pop back up!

The guy has been made of glass... this is not a 'one hit' thing. You can't be a great QB from the inactive list.
Quoted from Who-Dey:You're not allowed to push the defender away like that so yeah it is offensive pass interference.
The defender also can't hold the recievers hands. There was nothing there to call, just hand stuff.
Honestly, I can't think of a more favorable Wild Card round. My local team the Seahawks won pretty easily with no injuries to major players and both the Patriots and Saints were knocked out. We are playing Green Bay next, who I know we can beat and we've been fantastic on the road this season, then likely the 49ers, who we've beaten once this year and had a very close second game loss too. I could totally see my early prediction of a Ravens vs. Seahawks Superbowl happening.
Quoted from Ronnie1114:Alright, let's go hawks! Very much looking forward to the game next week...
Will Clowney be trying to kill the opposing QB in this one as well?

As a 49er fan I can definitely see round 3 coming! But I was unimpressed with the Hawks performance today but maybe it was just a case of doing just enough to get it done.

I think you need some cheese with your whine. Clowney beats offensive lines and sacks quarterbacks. Sorry Wentz is made of glass and has been so prone to injuries his entire career, Wilson has played through all his injuries and started every game.

Seahawks have been getting it done that way all year....they've won a bunch of close games. Wilson is a stud, and their very well coached. If the Niners D can get healthy they'll be tough to beat in the play offs....getting 3 starters back on D is a big deal.

Didn't look like a dirty play to me.....I'd love to see a SeaHawks / Niners NFC championship game

I want the easier road and I think that is Green Bay.

"we"?
What position do you play?

Or we could just talk about the fact the Eagles had a 40 year old QB in there who had never taken a postseason snap before. Might be a good starting point.
Someone down in the dirty dirty please check in on Pinball-is-great
Quoted from dirtbag66:Or we could just talk about the fact the Eagles had a 40 year old QB in there who had never taken a postseason snap before. Might be a good starting point.
My point exactly. Hawks should have won bu 20. But I guess they were playing it safe. It worked so can’t complain.

I thought he did great! Similarly, I thought Lynch did great after taking a year off on the couch. Both those guys stepped up for their teams in the wake of pretty big injuries.
I can't say I blame people for wanting to face up against GB. I like Aaron Rodgers to be really good and pissed off come playoff time. A giant sized chip on his shoulder from getting no respect being the 2 seed should just about do it.
I'm personally glad the Saints are out. That was a team I didn't think we matched up with very well. The Seahawks I feel pretty good about. That OL is porous, and we have some really good talent in that front 7 that will be really tough for them to deal with.

I'd rather see Green Bay than Seattle....mobile QB's give the Niners fits....even though could have easily beat Seattle twice, and Baltimore (in Baltimore)
Quoted from dirtbag66:Will Clowney be trying to kill the opposing QB in this one as well?
Yes because that is his job...DUH!!
If I had a defensive lineman on my team and he DIDN'T want to kill the QB then I would replace him with one that did.

This story just continues to write itself, doesn't it?
Quoted from dirtbag66:This story just continues to write itself, doesn't it?
I guess it does if you say so. That was also not a dirty hit on Wentz. If a QB wants to turn himself into a running back and run the ball then guess what your gonna get knocked the F out eventually. If players arent allowed to punish a QB that wants to run all the time then the quarterbacks will be running on every dam play. If you're a defensive player you gotta let that QB know that if he runs you are going to make him pay. That's part of the game PERIOD!!

Getting serious now. I got an all caps PERIOD! 
"Referee Shawn Smith told a designated pool reporter after the game that the helmet-to-helmet contact on the play was incidental. [Wentz] was a runner and he did not give himself up," Smith said. "We saw incidental helmet contact, and in our judgment, we didn't rule that to be a foul."
"I was just rushing the passer. It was a bang-bang play. I didn't intentionally try to hurt nobody. I just play this game with a lot of enthusiasm and effort," Clowney told ESPN's Josina Anderson after the game. "It was just a bang-bang play. I hope he's OK and that everything will be OK with him." -ESPN
Quoted from dirtbag66:Will Clowney be trying to kill the opposing QB in this one as well?
I hope so, Rodgers is my least favorite player in the league 
Quoted from dirtbag66:Does anyone else ever want to chime in once Who-Dey gets going? Or have we all just come to the conclusion that he is the resident Simple Jack?[quoted image]
Well its guys like you that want to turn football into a pussy sport that's ruining the game. Football is a rough sport so when a guy gets hammered he shouldn't be crying about it. That hit right there was nothing compared to hits quarterbacks took 15 times a game back in the old days when football was real.

A bit ahead of the game but I am interested why you think Green Bay matches up well against the Niners after the game earlier this year?
That was one of the most dominate performances I have seen. Why do you think the result will be different? I am not hating, obviously you follow Green Bay way closer than I do and why were they dominated in that game but won’t be next time?

Oh, dear Lord. We've reached the "old days" portion of the ride!! Give me a minute. I gotta go get some popcorn. Should give you enough time to pack your pipe and get a good, roaring fire started.
