Jeremy Maclin, Philadelphia Eagles, WR, NFL Down at Training Camp torn  Anterior cruciate ligament. Out for the YEAR.

Maclin received an MRI. I was running errands and tuned into WIP, sports radio.

This is a huge blow to Eagles roster on offense. Who will step up or will there will be a trade or free agent signing in the future?

Over 65,000 expected @ Linc tomorrow.  Chip Kelly and Company is on currently on display.

NFL Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks, Russell Wilson game winning interception, Hail Mary pass, September 24, 2012.

The NFL released their statement on the final call of the Green Bay Packers “loss” to the Seattle Seahawks.

While the ball is in the air, Tate can be seen shoving Green Bay cornerback Sam Shields to the ground. This should have been a penalty for offensive pass interference, which would have ended the game. It was not called and is not reviewable in instant replay.

When the players hit the ground in the end zone, the officials determined that both Tate and Jennings had possession of the ball. Under the rule for simultaneous catch, the ball belongs to Tate, the offensive player. The result of the play was a touchdown.

Replay Official Howard Slavin stopped the game for an instant replay review. The aspects of the play that were reviewable included if the ball hit the ground and who had possession of the ball. In the end zone, a ruling of a simultaneous catch is reviewable. That is not the case in the field of play, only in the end zone.

Referee Wayne Elliott determined that no indisputable visual evidence existed to overturn the call on the field, and as a result, the on-field ruling of touchdown stood. The NFL Officiating Department reviewed the video today and supports the decision not to overturn the on-field ruling following the instant replay review.

I viewed the Monday night game in the last 3 minutes. These are replacement refs because the union refs are on strike.

But I have seen the union refs blow calls too, and?

Head coach Andy Reid yelling at Cullen Jenkins, in the NFL Pre Season Philadelphia Eagles 27-17 victory over New England Patriots. A shouting match erupted between the coach and player in the second quarter following the New England Patriots’ 13-play, 80-yard touchdown drive led by backup quarterback Ryan Mallett.

Reid at after game press conference,

It’s an emotional game. He was fired up, I was fired up, Those things happen. Cullen is my primary leader on that defensive line. I count on him for a lot of things. He was upset and I was upset, and we talked about it afterwards.”

I have never seen Andy verbally discipline any player like that.  I was at the gym viewing on a large screen couldn’t hear the volume.
I wish there was a mic on the bench. Listen to replay, only announcers Mike Tirico /Jon Gruden color commented.
