Watch the replay! He clearly got held, hands high, BOTH hands grasping the jersey of the guy with the best angle at the QB.

Homer or not, Bengals were lucky to win and aren't going anywhere even if they get Green back. Their defense is slowly wilting...Geno Atkins clearly isn't the same after his ACL injury and both of their first round DB's can't even get on the field.

Who cares what he did?

They didn't throw a flag for holding on the play. Had they not thrown it for OPI, it would have been a TD. Wasn't coming back because YOU saw holding.

There's always holding penalties not called. If it's not flagged you can't bring it up lol

I get it. And you could also find holding if you watched the line closely on every play.

Outside of Luck, Wilson and RG3, it's been pretty awful for rookie QB's stepping right in.

Anyone tell me if home field is more important this year than in years' past? Sure seems like teams are way better than they are on the road....even more than you'd expect.

Here's an interesting chart of the last 10 years. Giants have more road wins than home.

Chiefs, Jags, Chargers all way better at home. The whole NFC West and all North teams except Green Bay have a big discrepancy.

Doesn't tell me shit about this year, but found it interesting.

Interesting concept. How many on this board could claim that they do?
Personally, I think the word "we" is used too often when referring to sports teams.

Dumb rule.

Seriously asking, when do you think it should start at the snap?

So I guess the only way I can use the word "my" is the packers, since they are publicly owned?

Personally, I think people generally care way too much about things that don't matter.
