Can I get a ruling?

Billy and I have recently been debating the things that stop drives. I said that turnovers and things like dropped passes or big penalties on third down are the only things that can really be classified as a drive-killer. In my opinion, you can't argue with a turnover, b/c you can't continue a drive if you don't have the ball. Everything else depends entirely on down and distance. Context matters. A false start on first and ten doesn't help a drive, but it doesn't kill it either.

Please take a look at this post and tell me if this is just pure comedy, or am I dillusional?

Billy, dropped passes, penalties, missed blocks, etc. happen all the time and they're not drive stoppers.

You can post till ya blue in the face and drink all the WhoTang ya want to, but you are wrong about the above statement. Feel free to step up to the plate WhoDat.

C'mon just admit you are wrong. We've all been wrong and it will make you sound much more crediable...........

So please guys, b/c honestly, I am speechless, tell me who is right.
