Calc down

That was tough to watch. Is that not a hip drop tackle?

I thought those were illegal now?

They are, but it's us, so completely 100% legal

And that’s why you don’t put the starters in.

Only when the eagles do it.

Beat me to it

Classic hipdrop tackle injures player and the refs just pretend they didn't see it

ouch

hope Calc is okay

I don't think they've been flagging those. Just fining players for it

HIP DROP HELLO????

16 to 0 lions. Need some starters in now.

The starters should have started the game and earned the second half off. The problem with putting the starters in now is that you’re sending a strong message to the rams/49ers is that you’re scared to face them.

I thought those tackles were penalized this year. I guess not.

The Redskins suck deeeek

The hip drop penalty another one the nfl loves. could have been called but they don't. hmmm.

So just to recap. Spinning the ball on the ground equals 15 yards. Illegal tackle that injures a player, play on.

Terrible miss on the refs again

No flag since it was Philly

Guys I've figured it out! This is the first year of teams cannot commit penalties against defending SB champs. They're trying to get away from the Chiefs model of calling everything for them.

why can you tackle someone like that and get away with it?

But spin a ball near someone and you get 15 yard penalty. This league is cooked

Did they just say some player has 100k in fines from hipdrop tackles? That's insane

Tank turns a loss into a gain of 1.

F the officials

I usually never fall into the "ref blaming" crowd, but the officiating against us this season has been particularly egregious.

There's a clear pattern week in and week out, getting pretty damn sick of it.
