Was it holding on the Int ?

 

[gotime909]

Where was the PI??? That flag came in well after Kirby had made the catch and run. Total bs

 

[biggunsbob]

Patrick great catch !

Where is the PI ? Screw these refs already.

 

[biggunsbob]

Patrick was interfered with. No call. Still caught it.

 

[gotime909]

Hell of a catch!! 100% should have been PI too and these shitbag refs let it go

 

[biggunsbob]

Turn your head Arnold please.

 

[biggunsbob]

Stop with the damn flags. So frustrating.

 

[biggunsbob]

Defense on 3rd down. .

 

[gotime909]

Glenn has to go. All this clutching and grabbing is clearly being taught. THEY ALL DO IT

 

[biggunsbob]

Branch Int ! No flags I’m surprised!

 

[biggunsbob]

Jamo good run !
Jamo bad drop !
Jamo sort of same play ! catch !

 

[gotime909]

Worst drop I've seen jamo

 

[biggunsbob]

Love going right back to him.

 

[biggunsbob]

Didn’t he grab Gibbs Arm ? I guess not.

 

[biggunsbob]

What the hell play was that ? Not very good play Ben.
Looked like they were setting up the side our kicker liked.

 

[biggunsbob]

40 yard fg Is good !

 

[gotime909]

Goff needs to hit that pass to Gibbs. Bad miss

 

[biggunsbob]

Punt safe play safe please.
