Winston’s injury reminds me so much of when Jeff Blake was the Saints QB in his first season here, and Jeff Blake was on the verge of becoming nearly an elite QB as a Saint in 2000 before he had the season ending injury. I hope Ian Book can now become as good as of a replacement that Aaron Brooks initially was for Jeff Blake.

It wasn’t even a horse collar. It was a legal tackle. Horse collar has to be use of the top of the shoulder pads.

no it doesn't. It has to be grabbing a player in the name plate area and pulling them backwards. read the rule.

You are assuming literacy is a strength.

The more I see the replay the more I think ACL…plus the MCL and wouldn’t be surprised to hear meniscus..

But that piece of work Bucs fan on our board thinks it was a BS call.

I would love to see our guys do the same thing to Brady and take him out with the same type of play.

it was a BS call, but Suhs call shouldnt have been reversed

Best case scenario would be a six week knee injury, but it looks like a season ender.

I feel bad for Jameis. He seemed to be buying into the coaching and was playing pretty well.

Actually it includes the nameplate also.

I believe “above the name plate” is the term. And it clearly was.

So horse collar doesnt have to grab the collar

Either way, i think it was accidental, as opposed to the playoffs, when he purposely took out Deonte because they couldnt stop him legally

So horse collar doesnt have to grab the collar

Correct. The call was certainly in the spirit of the rule. This is exactly why they have the rule.

 

[Clintonrebel]

Maybe it’s just a bad sprain. Can’t hurt to hope and pray.

Basically….. you cannot grab above the name plate. High rate of knee injuries.

Russell Wilson, anyone?

The horse collar was BS? Ok man. The whole world is saying that it was a legit call except Bucs fans.

Call up Drew…





honestly, yeah I’m talking fantasy stuff by saying that… BUT how hard would it be if for some reason both sides wanted that call to Drew to happen at a time like this?… like could it happen or is there too much red tape in the way of a retired guy coming back?
