My biggest pet peeve. Fair catches on kick-offs when one is in the field of play.


An examination of NFL injury data has found that punts and kickoffs cause more injuries, and more serious injuries, than other plays, and the league said today that it is concerned about that.
"Between the punt and the kickoff, there's a disproportionate number of concussions occurring on only a couple plays," said Jeff Miller, NFL Executive Vice President overseeing Player Health and Safety.
And it's not just concussions. The NFL also said there are more serious knee injuries, as well as more other lower-body injuries, per play on punts and kickoffs than on other kinds of plays. About 30 percent of all torn ACLs are on special teams plays, the league said, even though those represent only about 17 percent of all plays.

THAT is your biggest pet peeve?   Congratulations.
yeah. I really dont watch as much NFL as the avarge scooper.. When did they start allowing  fair catches in the field of play to be the equivalent of a touchback?

Chiefs have released Toney.

Toney better get a new phone number and a new place to live.  KC fans will not forgive this one.
Mahomes embarrassing himself on the sidelines. Must suck when you don't get all the calls.

Mahomes should be fined heavily. Clearly offsides. No question.

Broncos one game back in the AFC West, and Lions/Broncos next week is suddenly a huge game for both teams.

I respect that he was smart enough to whip his helmet with his left hand, protecting his throwing shoulder.   Crash Davis would be proud.

Do the Chiefs refuse to realize that Toney was lined up offside? Reid postgame said "it's embarrassing for the league for that to take place".

WTF is he talking about? I'm all for officials getting criticized when they mess up, but that was 100% a penalty.

No question. I have no idea what they would be arguing about.

So this kicker on Dallas has casually kicked 60 and 59 yrd fg's tonight?  TV doesn't give that achievement justice.

I would guess it has something to do with kickoffs being a live ball and punts not, unless touched by the receiving team.
A kick returner doesn't have the option not to field the ball if it's in the field of play. A punt returner has the option of letting it go and hoping it bounces into the end zone.
Just speculation, but makes sense to me.

Something unusual happens to CJ Stroud -- he looks like a rookie QB.

Can't do anything vs. the Jets (10-of-23 for 91 yards) ... and leaves late with a concussion, too.

Yep. It will be interesting to see what the NFL does to punish Reid and Mahomes. Fines almost for certain. Suspensions, too? Hard to believe that would happen, but you can't let a guy who's one of the faces of the NFL and a Super Bowl coach just rip officials, especially when the QB and coach are wrong. Mahomes even threatened the official on the field.

OK, so he was "in the moment." But then he also sounded like a turd at his press conference later.

He and other Chiefs also didn't seem to realize that the flag was thrown right away. It's not as if the officials waited to see what the result of the play was and then decided to negate it.

I think this was the culmination of 2 weeks in a row. The refs most likely cost KC the GB game when their WR was clearly mugged and then this happens.

Technically, maybe yes, he was offsides. But. technically, you see DL offside almost every game where they sometimes line up in the neutral zone and it isn't called.

I just don't buy into getting mad at an obvious call just because sometimes it isn't called the other direction. He was visibly offsides and should have checked with the ref.

Something that is very easy to prevent. It's like when a hold gets called on a Packer and complaining because they never call it on them usually.

Goodell has flat out told the refs to cheat against the Packers.  That's a provable fact

Sorry, sir, but that's a pretty pitiful excuse.

Just line up right.
