Saints cheap shots on Matty Lice??
 

Ok taking joy in trolling the Clowns fan forums. One forum taking about a cheap shot on Ryan taken by a rookie (Vacaro?)

And another time Ryan was driven into the ground? Some of the Clown fans thought he might be injured.

I can not watch the game until it is on Rewind. Can anyone give me some insight here?

Oh, several Clown fans are ready to give up the whole season ,

Vaccaro did get flagged, but he was already moving towards Ryan when Matt slid late...

The rest were just sacks or getting there right when he released the ball...

They are delusional as usual.

That win was just so sweet but yes, there was a cheap shot on Matt Ryan and I was annoyed because not only did it cost us 15 yards (well, half the distance to the goal) but I never condone anything that we would be mad about if it happened to Drew or any other of our players. And for those of you saying he was already on the way, not true. I dislike the Falcons as much as the next Who Dat but it was a cheap shot and they have a right to be peeved. It was the same I felt when, a few years ago, Roman Harper blatantly hit someone in the endzone when the ball was harmless, it cost us then too. He is a rookie but I hope the coaches tell him that that kind of play is not welcome.

Thanks.

It was a cheap shot, but not anything that you don't see every week. Then, on the next drive a Falcon dived and speared Sproles in the ribs with his helmet. That did not get called. After that it was pretty much open season on Matt Cryin'.

Clay Matthews' called hit on Kaep tonight was a cheap shot. Our hit on Ryan? Not so much. It looked like a hit you would see in almost any other game. Sometimes it gets called, sometimes it doesnt. Life goes on. Nothing to get your panties in a twist about.

He got flagged for it, what else do they want...suspension, forfeited game? The right call was made. He also stopped running around after that so I guess both players learned a lesson.

Speaking of Matthew's hit. Seems he was talking all week about how they were coming after Kaepernick and were going to hit him. Are you listening NFL?

I wouldn't call it a cheap shot. It would have been a cheap shot if he had went in with the crown of his helmet. But if memory serves me and it more times than not doesn't, Vacarro turned his head and hit with his shoulder. It was a hard hit by an over zealous rookie who plays pedal to the metal. Vacarro will learn in time how to get a little more control of his body and when to recognize when the QB starts to slide you pull up as best you can. He got flaged and it cost us 15. He'll learn. Besides, a play like that makes the QB think twice about running when he isn't a running QB.
