Forward pass

Same bullshit like the first game. All scoring plays reviewed. Facemask for a safety or intentional grounding take that is deemed a forward pass. NFL has to fix that.

When even the Troy/Joe bobbleheads are wondering why it wasn't at least a grounding, and those two are typically anti-Vikings in general, it's a statement.

At the same time, KOC, Darnold, and frankly the whole team got exposed. Aside from all of Sam's gaffes, our tackling was pure s**t too often and our coverage is still picked apart by good teams.

I'm thrilled that we had twice as many wins as projected, but KOC hasn't found that special something that separates good teams from great ones, not yet. I think he knows that.

I was watching the manning cast, the manning's were saying it was a fumble, no way that was a pass, Belicheat called it right away, the league will buzz in and save the rams, and they did.

the one that had me boiling from jump last night was the big sack on the opening drive. the rams defender had his hand all up in O'Neil's facemask shoving his head backwards the entire rush, and that one was so blatant and they let it go... right there I knew the fix was in on this game.... SD and KOC just made it easier on them to do it.

It should have been clearly ruled a fumble...

Another Hurricane Katrina story for the league to milk for all it can.

I noticed that as well and I yelled where's the flag.  The forward pass was a bullshit call, at least should have been intentional grounding.

coupled with the uncalled safety/intentional grounding in Detroit, one can see the narrative the league wants to push. They wanted the Rams to win no doubt. Our offense shit the bed and made it easy, but that play would have been a huge game changer.

It was the hottest I got all night. Minimum this was a penalty for intentional grounding.
