How to stop 94? Easy, HOLD HIM

[badnews]

Q: When do Quinns sacks come and why do they come in bunches when they do?
A: When the refs actually call holding on the LT. After a couple of holding penalties, LTs are forced to play him straight up. It never goes well from them and Quinn has a big day.

When will refs (if ever) call holding against him again?
It's been happening BLATANTLY since the end of last season. The book is out and every one of Quinns opponents have read it.

Also, Fuck you Roger Goodell. Get out of the way so someone can fix this mess you've made.

OMG i thought me and my Dad was the only one who saw that yesterday. It was horrible when they double teamed Quinn they didn't even try to hide the fact they where holding him. And yet no flags thrown

I know EXACTLY the play you are talking about...

Pass rushers get held on every single play. The great ones break through it and get to the QB anyways, and when they can't, they embellish and get calls.

Quinn is still working on that part of his game.

Sometimes he's too quit for his own good!!

I get that, but the game hasn't always been called this way either.
Maybe the great pass rushers get held all of the time, but the refs are still supposed to call it SOME of the time.
Instead, they are not calling it at all.
It's bull$hit.

Plus other guys have to step up. Little disappointed with DT play this year

A penalty is a penalty. It's not their job to rewrite the rule book every week.

Just enforce the damn rules the way they are written and stop with the game day modifications.

Exactly. How much harder could they make it on themselves?

And the only reason to call games that way is to maintain control of the contest. That should be the players/coaches role, not the refs. They should worry only about the enforcement of the rules as they are written, imo.

YEP! it was probably the same one I paused and rewound over and over. double teamed on both sides being bear hugged while stretching an arm out for McCown.

One play I thought they body slammed Quinn or Sims. It was pretty bad.

BINGO That's the play!!!

On Rainey's first big run on the first drive, one of our DLs or LBs got bear-hugged when he tried to fill the gap which allowed Rainey to run right on by. The refs were really bad in that game.

Its up to Fisher to raise hell with the league and the refs. If he isn't going to call them on it during the game then file a complaint if they ignore him during the game then why would the refs care if they miss the holds or just don't call them. Then again maybe the top tier guys aren't supposed to get the calls to keep the QB's from getting hospitalized.

Watching the shortcut replay. No holding here on Brockers and Quinn! OMG!

 

[badnews]

I guess that's the plan vs our D-line.
Hold em, refs won't call it.

If the trend continues, I hope we start doing the same. ...

 

[Oldgeek]

I'd love to see Fisher call a TO and spend it glaring at the head linesman while Quinn stands next to him. Give the announcers something to talk about and maybe the league office something to think about.

That's just comical really.

 

[Sleepy1711]

Hahah.. This is funny but angers me the same time. Just let me punch one ref in the face, that's all I ask, is that too much?

The rules are in place for a reason, saying he should just power through something that the league made a point to eradicate is a little unfair. If he can get held by two guys and not get a single call, its gone beyond grin and bare it.
