not worth 20 mil. His passing game consists of tossing it deep and hoping for the flag.
This...sounds familiar?

Total class there, Butler doesn't break like he did at the start and beeline toward wilson, game over, that was a touchdown.


Watched gronk on Kimmel last night and he was hilarious, Kimmel played the scrum and on coming back he was cringing... On party bus... No booze allowed according to gronk.

Rewatched the game last night. Butler made 4 incredible plays on the drive, counting Kearse's miracle catch. Butler played that perfectly.

Now that it's been a couple of days I've heard a ton of breakdown on the play and why it was an interception. First credit has to go to Butler, he read the play perfect and made a great play. But you just have to wonder, if Lockett doesn't take that fake half first step toward the goal before crossing, he probably gets there before Butler and it's either a catch or incomplete. Still a dumb play no matter what.

The pass could have been better too. A little bit lower or to the right and it's either a catch or incomplete.

Plus the thing no one talks about is how Butler had the presence of mind to surge forward and get it to the two yard line instead of just go weeeee and flop down in the end zone.

Theres a chance that if basically any corner other than Browner is getting jammed by Kearse its a TD. Take away that size advantage and back that block up 1 yard, and Butler doesnt have the angle on the ball.

Think that was a penalty-worthy pick play?

Consider they threw a flag earlier on Amendola for blocking down field too soon on a screen

Probably due to where the ball was thrown. If it's thrown a little more behind him and Butler still bumps him, they might have called PI.

I think he is referring to the receiver blocking the DB. And no, it doesn't look like it was penalty worthy.
