Adams MO tries to do too much and gets hurt

MBT nice game

Quote from: J5V on July 25, 2025, 03:57:24 AMOh, yeah, but wouldn't that be, technically, a fumble? I thought the catch was secured well enough by that point. No?

I agree. It was a catch and a fumble from all the angles we could see. He was not going down when he caught the ball.

I'll give MBT credit, he played well. Nice to see Calgary taken down a notch although losing Adams may be what ultimately cost them the game.

Then he has a little cry on the sidelines, LOL. The cracks! The cracks! They're always hidden just beneath the the surface on Adams, but they always reappear. Stamps going nowhere when the wind blows cold, just got to make Vern cry. Dickie must be thinking *** is this???

Wow, that's a lot of wounded in this game. Screws up my pickems again.

The Als kicker doesn't look too well loved, wins the game for them with an incredible boot and hardly anyone congratulates him.

This game was a pickems/fantasy/gambler's worst nightmare. What a disaster!

On the bright side, basically everyone picked CGY, so there will be no real change in the pickems.

Everyone knows that if VAJ was still in the game he would have won. You could easily see the trend of the better team pulling forward in the 2nd H.

Ya, this call was badly botched. There is NO "survive contact" when the REC wasn't jumping, in the air, or diving. Sure, at the end he was "going down", but that's because he was getting low-tackled when trying to take off (and injured).

I don't even think it's a fumble, I think the ball came out when his elbow/forearm hit the turf. And it doesn't even matter, since he recovered it himself.

It was a normal standing catch, clearly secure with zero bobbles as he turns to run, tacklers bring him down, and the ball pops out when his arm hits the turf.

In the end it didn't matter that it was a "homer call", but with auto review command really needs to get these right. I think we're owed a memo during the week to explain this one...
