Week 13 Discussion Thread

Got a chuckle out of someone on Twitter calling Taysom Hill "Great Value Tim Tebow"

Lots of calls went against the Saints tonight. That Blindside block
call changed the game.

Saints had no RT, LT, Kamara, Davenport, a limited QB and made it close
for 3 quarters. If Hill didnt hurt his hand early they might have had a
chance.

The Cowboys are in trouble. Zeke is obviously hurt. They need to make
Pollard the feature back for the next few weeks. The mini bye is coming
at the right time. Maybe 10 days off will help them.

As a Cowboy fan this game has more questions than answers about how
good or bad we are.

The Bills lost the playoff game vs. Houston two years ago when Cody Ford did a very similar thing and got flagged and later fined. The NFL then included that play as an example of one that is NOT a Blindside block. The rule needs a sense check.

Yeah, total misapplication of the rule. Hearing the boo’s rain down at the Superdome was music to my ears. Cowboys didn’t need any more help than Hill’s turnovers and Saints injuries gave them. Game should’ve been over in the 3rd but Dallas let them hang around too close for too long. But a win is a win.

I've never seen "Blindside Block" called on anything but a good football play.

It needs to go altogether.

"Holding" has become awfully ticky-tack, too.

Does the NFL Office even watch games?

[reyes the roof]

Fields is out again so another start for Andy Dalton

[reyes the roof]

Jalen Hurts out tomorrow. It seems like a lot more QBs are missing time this year

[ProfessaPackMan]

Green Bay’s magic number to clinch the NFC North is 3 games but can go down to 2 if the Lions beat the Vikings.
