The ref isn't going to throw a flag for grabbing skin, now when they grab and pull on the jersey a flag is usually thrown.

Where the hell were you when Revis was doing this every game in NY?


For the record, I said this shite about Revis years ago when everyone was crowning him as the best shutdown corner we'll ever see and all those other overreactions, and people bitched that I dare say he holds all the time.

It's the same shite with Seattle's defense. If they are beat to a spot, they just pull on the receiver to catch up or just go through them early to knock the ball away. With no flag, it seems like they are always blanketing the WRs so it's "amazing" coverage. It's the lack of flags leading to the idea that they are all amazing coverage guys which is leading to a lack of flags. A circle of bullshite that screws their opponents.

Might not be every play but I can recall 3-4 times it happened blatantly in the Saints and 49ers games where the refs just let it go. Even in the MNF against the Rams I recall a play where they got away with it. They tried it with Arizona but Fitzgerald was too physcial to hold.

I know there are blown calls but they seem to be consistent in getting away with and having a couple of blatant Def holding and PI no calls.


Lost in the shuffle is Crabtree pushing Sherman on that last INT play. He just didn't push him hard enough.

I really think I am done with this stupid fricking website



Can't add any discussion to anything. An admin needs to put a warning out for people saying this in every thread. Add to the discussion you stupid count. Most of the Saints fans on here are objective, but this same remark is thrown out. frick this shite. I'm to the point where I don't even want to get on here anymore, it is useless.

In all honesty they play man to man jamming wr at the line of scrimmage. After the initial contact the ride the wr from the inside of the wr taking the wr up the field. Knowing that they have thomas over the top of the field at safety. If you play close enough to wr and not change the course of the wr from making a play on the ball hats off to them. They will only be called if the jersey is pulled away from the body and it is seen and the wr can't make a obvious play on the ball.

Is there any particular reason they get away with all the holdings and PI no calls. Do they do a good job of masking it or hiding it or have they built a reputation that officials assume they are making plays on their talent. Not trying to troll just a general question.



You can't discount that their players are actually good at football. Even on plays where Seahawk DBs don't hold/interfere, they are usually in a solid football position.

Good players get the benefit of the doubt from refs - this happens in all sports.

No offense but you are kind of proving his point!

Just wait till you see the amount of holding that the Broncos O-line will get away with against Seattle... The refs won't let them touch Manning...

I'm not saying shite about Seattle in that way. They are the better team and won. However: none of us are allowed to speak objectively on them. If we aren't praising them as the greatest team ever we are butthurt. I'm tired of it. Find a new insult.

If that is actually the case, then the uncalled penalties should offset. More time for the receivers to escape the grabbing and clutching because the OL is also grabbing and clutching.

Alright dukke v that's the other side of the coin the Seattle defense is their calling card. And the Bronco's offense is their calling card, you get a few calls cause you usually are better at something and people look at other things to call. This is going to be like Pittsburgh vs Arizona I think cause I have no dog In this fight but I love defense so I will like to see how Seattle holds up versus Peyton.

+1. Seattle must be the most insecure fan base in history. They're going to the Super Bowl and they still can't stop thinking about the Saints.
