Other Sports: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): THIS IS BRAZIL (Start Of 2024 Regular Season)

Bro this is madness

Two BS roughing Mahomes calls

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

The refs called that on the sound of two Texans helmets clanging.

 

[litflyersfan]

Absolutely ridiculous how much this league babies Mahomes.

Edit: Even Aikman is saying it’s getting out of hand.

 

[ponder719]

How f***ed of a call does it have to be for NFL commentators to argue that a penalty for hitting Patrick Mahomes shouldn't have been called? That should be a firing offense.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

I give Buck full credit for openly questioning this stuff. Even Aikman has been a lot better this year. I like this announce team and I was never an Aikman guy at all.

Is the NFL actually fixed fellas ?????

It's far too broken to be fixed, but I can go so far as rigged.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

They write rules poorly (RTP) or just decide not to enforce them (hip drop). There's no team fixing. Mahomes is just really good at exploiting these angles.

Now if you want to say it's rigged in the favor of QBs in general, yes.

Two BS roughing Mahomes calls

 

[Svechhammer]

The Mahomes coddling by the NFL has reached such absurd levels even Aikman and Buck dug in on calling it out

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

Mahomes is disgraceful.

 

[Chinatown88]

Wowsers

 

[Svechhammer]

Any other QB in this league and that drive is a punt at midfield. That motherf***er gets bailed out twice and now the league gets to suck off a crazy throw.

You can tell who truly doesn't know shit by whether they think this is a Mahomes problem or it's leaguewide. Aidan O'Connell gets calls like this.

Weirdly Herbert doesn't. He's Maxey.

If Hurts got the calls that Mahomes does, there is no conversation about him being an elite QB, it would be generally accepted by everyone

I will remind you however that Hurts missed 2 games when his head was driven into the ground as he gave himself up and there was no call

There are players who get these calls every time, then there are players who get these calls most of the time, then all the other players who get these calls some of the time

You're better at doing emotional damage to me when you don't intend to do emotional damage to me. WTH is this superpower?

Now I'm in despair thinking about last week again.

This is f***ing nuts. Just tapping a vein and dying everything inside you green.

 

[Chinatown88]

Double protein double rice at Chipotle for the Greek man pays off.

 

[DancingPanther]

Bro the Texans know that they need to not let guys run at their QB right? That was 3 straight downs of blow-up-the-play pressure

 

[Svechhammer]

I will remind you however that Hurts missed 2 games when his head was driven into the ground as he gave himself up and there was no call

Yep. Don't sell me on this whole "every QB gets these calls" bullshit when the Hurts just spent 3 weeks in the protocol after Luvu bounced his head on the ground when giving himself up without a flag when you're seeing Mahomes get calls on plays where he isn't even hit when giving himself up.

 

[DancingPanther]

This might be an unpopular opinion but Danny Devito to me is just another Kevin Hart. The loud clown who only is funny to people who think loud clowns are funny. And that's fine.

Hurts went headfirst directly into Luvu's path and Luvu got him on the shoulder. It's football.

No one gets them all of the time. You're not dumb. Don't act like it.
