    The holding call stands out but lets remember the other guy gets paid to play too. I don't think it is a case of DD playing bad just one guy made the better play and the other had to hold to avoid getting his QB creamed.

    I was talking about the hold on the running play when Bell was already past him and DD held? Or was that someone else?

    speaking of linemen, i have to give a shout out to pouncey and getting downfield on one play and hitting two guys way downfield. thats what he is the best at. mobility and hitting multiple targets. :thumbs_up::cool:

    He's just been bad this year. Particularly in pass protection. You hold players like DD to a higher standard after the accolades and the big contract. He got embarrassed for the entire game against Philly and had a really rocky start to the KC game. He doesn't get paid 10 mil a year to get owned like that for 5 out of 8 quarters. I'm not trying to rip the guy, I just had higher hopes for him after last season. He needs to be better and needs to be more consistent. I get that bad games happen and he still has time to redeem himself. We're gonna need him to with all of our injuries at OL right now.

    A good # of Ben's throws were off target...fortunately the WRs were able to adjust to make the catches, but these off target throws won't win a SB

    True. Though throwing at Wheaton's numbers seemed to have worse results the week before...

    Negative. He was Humping the Air. Personally I can put up with the stupid dances and antics but this? Common.

    Bowing is even closer to twerking than his air-hump (which sounds like his new Nike shoe!).
