It's not like we weren't on the business receiving end of calls like this before, right? We deserve calls like that to go our way once in a while.

I was texting a friend and he said "we got a gift" to which I replied "we get so few"

For the Packer fans whining about the "roughing call" ...

You can thank Tom Brady, Patrick M, Rodgers & Dak for those weak calls. In today's game, the league simply isn't allowing QB's to take those shots like they did in the late 80's & 90's. Especially with marquee name QB's in prime time. Money makers for the "shield".

Different league.

The roughing call was bad...I think we all know that.

We should also know that the league is protecting its QBs and the problem here for the defender is that he went high on Winston. Had he gone at the rib cage or ribs...it's GB ball. There was just no reason for the guy to hit Winston that high and it cost him whether the call was good or not.

I've been hoping to see this guy ascend - not that I wanted to see McCoy injured - but with a name like that you just have to root for the guy.
