So, the ball went through the defensive players hands (after the receiver grabbed his hand) and then to the receiver, but the d player did not have better position. Got it.

Having a better position doesn't mean that it was OPI.

OPI and DPI are not the same thing. The rules are not the same. And Howard wasn't the receiver there. If he was he would've had better positioning to make the play on the ball because he never broke stride.

Acts that are pass interference include, but are not limited to:

Contact by a player who is not playing the ball that restricts the opponent’s opportunity to make the catch;

Playing through the back of an opponent in an attempt to make a play on the ball;

Grabbing an opponent’s arm(s) in such a manner that restricts his opportunity to catch a pass;

Extending an arm across the body of an opponent, thus restricting his ability to catch a pass, and regardless of whether the player committing such act is playing the ball;

Cutting off the path of an opponent by making contact with him, without playing the ball;

Hooking an opponent in an attempt to get to the ball in such a manner that it causes the opponent’s body to turn prior to the ball arriving; or

Initiating contact with an opponent by shoving or pushing off, thus creating separation.
Note: If there is any question whether player contact is incidental, the ruling should be no interference.

ARTICLE 3. PERMISSIBLE ACTS BY BOTH TEAMS WHILE THE BALL IS IN THE AIR

Acts that are permissible by a player include, but are not limited to:

Incidental contact by an opponent’s hands, arms, or body when both players are competing for the ball, or neither player is looking for the ball. If there is any question whether contact is incidental, the ruling shall be no interference.

Inadvertent tangling of feet when both players are playing the ball or neither player is playing the ball.

Contact that would normally be considered pass interference, but the pass is clearly uncatchable by the involved players, except as specified in 8-3-2 and 8-5-4 pertaining to blocking downfield by the offense.

Laying a hand on an opponent that does not restrict him in an attempt to make a play on the ball.

Contact by a player who has gained position on an opponent in an attempt to catch the ball.

Notes:

When the ball is in the air, eligible offensive and defensive receivers have the same right to the path of the ball and are subject to the same restrictions.

He did restrict him. But, it's subjective, so we know you wouldn't have called that.

But note, the rules are the same for O and D PI. Had that been the defensive back doing that to a wide out, it would get called 9 times out of 10.

Why would you think that? Pittsburgh is bad, but c'mon, they're not that bad. I figured the fins could squeak out a win with that particular QB, but that's it.

With Howard out, it may be a blowout the other way.

Yeah, i have to believe that’s why they’re trying to load up on 2021 picks as well. It’s looking like a very very strong secondary draft and we Uh need like 3 starters

The MNF broadcast crew must have taken it as a personal challenge to make this game seem remotely competitive. Booger spent SO MUCH time talking about how Fitz is amazing and exactly what this team needs (which is kind of true, just in the opposite way that he meant it). Flores is going to be the next Belichick, just look at this graphic that shows Tom Landry and other HoF coaches losing a few games to start their careers. It was a sight to behold.

the local dunkin' donuts has a stack of coupons for 35% off for the jets-dolphins game and man, i think that's a little over one third of the discount you'll need to fill those seats

though if it was easy to get to it might be fun to get drunk and heckle the toilet bowl but gently caress getting out to meadowlands for that

Not convinced that Burrow is worth the pain of this season in the way that Tua is.

Redskins aren't a threat, we're not winning two games. Jets I think we'll sneak tank our way to at worst splitting the series with them. Bungles are a serious concern.

Have you watched Burrow much this season?

When I watched him dismantle Florida I started questioning who we should draft.
