Joey Porter Jr. was flagged six times Sunday, but Mike Tomlin wants him to stay physical

Kliff Kingsbury considered top candidate for Bears’ coaching vacancy after Matt Eberflus’ firing

Joey Porter Jr is a penalty machine.

What a terrible set of plays. Nice work, Cardinals.

Well crap

I hope they submit this to the league for discipline. A player out-of-bounds tripping an opponent should be a big deal.

Curious who y’all think is responsible for the Raiders not getting a FG try?

What happened really is no different than the 12 second dancing around. Caleb took 26 seconds to line up and snap the ball and then ran a different play than the one called that took longer than 6 seconds. Look at how many stupid mistakes Williams had to make to blow this game. It’s actually wild then he’s not being lambasted. The level of incompetence is staggering.

If the Lions were in the same situation and Dan called timeout at 10 seconds y’all would be livid. If he called the timeout any time before 3rd at all y’all would be pissed. Luckily the Lions are coached well and have a QB who doesn’t think he owns the team and will run the play called. So we would have completed a pass to St Brown or LaPorta for 12 yards and called timeout with 3 seconds left.

Which is why they didn’t want or need to call a timeout before the 3rd down play. With the timeout in their pocket the whole field is in play, with none Detroit guards sidelines and the end zone.

As said, if they had 2 timeouts, sure. They didn’t.

Calling the timeout at 32 seconds means Detroit will call a timeout after the 3rd down play if it’s not incomplete and have 20+ seconds to get into field goal range. That’s terrible clock management. Calling that timeout at 20 seconds is actually a viable option, but if you let it run to 20 your plan is clearly to run it down and use the timeout after 3rd down. There was no warning sign at 20 seconds that Caleb was going rogue. I’m so confused why we can use hindsight to bury the coach. If Caleb and looked at him and said F your play then yeah, Eberflus should have called timeout. That’s not what happened.

i guess they decided that there were people moving at the snap rather than moving when set.

This is completely crazy.

Three now.

That’s an option. I believe that Caleb getting sacked, throwing the ball over the middle, or running around for 12 seconds and screwing them over Is no less likely than him taking 30 seconds for one play.

They were outside his FG kickers’s range, or at the outer edge at best apparently. How was Eferblus going to know Williams was about to screw him over? Even at 6 seconds there was still plenty of time for 10 yards and a timeout. So the entire time the clock was running Eferblus was screwed and his best option was stick to the plan. If he calls timeout anywhere in the area of 10 seconds then they only get a guaranteed shot at the FG if they kick on 3rd down. If they try to run a short out in 3rd we already know that Williams will just audible to a bomb and you get the exact same ending. I still can’t believe Williams dropped back and held the ball. Honestly, Efeblus is better off in the long run getting out of Chicago. In hindsight the timeout at 30 seconds was was his only alternative. No matter what the Bears did on 3rd down not much clock would roll as the Lions would absolutely call a timeout. That means the Lions would have 20-ish seconds to get into FG range for the win in the event the Bears make their FG. The Bears coaching staff had a solid plan to get the clock bled out AND in better field goal position. There is exactly one person who **** that bed. Why do so many people give Williams a pass?

I know you are loyal as a USC fan, but he admitted to changing the play. When everyone else is on the same page you have to lay blame on the one guy who goes off script. It’s ok that Caleb doesn’t understand how to manage the clock. That’s not his job. His job is to get the snap off around 10-15 seconds and pick up 10 yards. That’s it. The coaches will handle the timeouts. He took the game into his own hands and made multiple stupid decisions. His football skills might have gotten them into position to compete, but clearly not his ability to strategize. If he had stuck to what he’s good at they might have taken the game to OT. Either way Eferblus was toast for his entire body of work. Good luck to the next head coach who has to deal with this guy.
