3 touchbacks in lambeau in this game. 2 in lambeau ALL of last year. This rule really puts a damper on things. Ballin, this might affect your draft picks a bit....lol

come again! hahaahaha, 43 points from sproles. the return game looked great for both teams tonight. who cares about touchbacks. announcers need to stop hyping it. it's like the rule changes last year that they were hyping about slowing down the colts offense. bunch of hog wash.


hey spartacus, i looked up what i was talking about earlier. 9 of the top 12 passers made the playoffs last year (the exceptions, freeman, matt schaub and phillip river) while only 4 of the top 12 rusher's (baltimore, k.c. pittsburge and someone i'm forgetting) made the playoffs. still don't think it's currently a passing league?

Yeah there's nothing more exciting then a guy taking the ball inside the 5 yd line and running into a pile at the 25 yd line. This seemed to be typical 90% of the time. There will still be lots of exciting KO returns, as you seen 2 tonight.


Hellova football game.

Hell yeah ! Didn't they actually just change it back to where they kicked-off before?

I see your doing your homework,and you are right.It is a passing league,but tell that to the saints last night.It was their short yardage run game that really hurt them last night.That failed short yardage play on 3rd and an inch,when they had pulled within one TD-was a backbreaker.

Lol, ok, ok. Obviously the rule isn't eliminating exciting plays on kick offs. Cobb showed us that. It will statistically reduce those exciting plays. And yes, Sproles is a bad ass!
 
the problem wasn't that they couldn't run....the problem was that one they didn't pass and two...they chose to run with a stupid rookie RB? pierre thomas would've atleast extended the ball and attempted to cross the goaline with his arms instead of ingram just attempting to secure the ball.

To be honest. there was no pass interference so the football Gods were just righting the wrongs. i understand what the ref saw though, from his position it clearly looks like he jumped on sproles back because of the way sprole fell down. it was just a bad angle.
 
Its is obv a passing era. I think its also the big play era, or just the start of it. I think you will see teams risk big plays a lil more often

Looks like he is picking up right where he left off last season. Can you imagine if he continues this play all season?
 
the hand off from the peyton and brady era may happen quicker then we ever imagined if he keeps this play up all season
