OT: Bears & NFL Talk 102

[ChiHawks10]

Unless I'm reading the rule wrong, it feels like an egregious miss. And the rule basically says "a defensive player can't push another defensive player into the offensive line," so it doesn't leave a whole lot of room for interpretation.

Yeah, me and my neighbor were watching, and we both commented the same thing on the replay... that it was a blatant penalty, and no idea how the refs missed it.

McAfee said Packers committed to penalties on the blocked kick. Not called.

Naturally. But it should never have gotten to that point. Just like the Hail Mary.

Of course. But illegal is illegal. Just as bad coaching decisions decide games, so don’t bad calls

Heard another stat. The D forced 1 punt all game.

This episode of the CHGO Bears Podcast brought up the point that the Bears had another punter (UDFA) in camp who's so far putting up basically identical numbers (for another team of course) as Poles' 4th-round find, and that the best punter in the League this year was a 7th-round pick.

 

[Paul Allen]

Sounds like Poles has ‘smartest guy in the room’ syndrome.

When your OL has holes and you can't rush the passer that well you probably shouldn't be taking a punter in the 4th round, no.
