Then after taking the lead 31-27 in the third quarter, gave up a safety, a touchdown and a two point conversion to put the Browns up 37-31 Still Cleveland refused to win. Even after a desperation pass by Detroit was intercepted in the end zone to end the game, the Browns were not done Pass interference was called on Hank Poteat Detroit ball on the one, no time left One last play You guessed it Matt Stafford throws a touchdown pass to Brandon Pettigrew. Browns lose.While compiling a 1-8 record, you could always blame the offense for the losses. Sure the defense hasn’t played very well but the offense has been horrendous Not today Cleveland scored 37 points.
They beat themselves, they are rarely prepared to play, they fold under pressure, they give up, they lack confidence, well you get the picture. Thud!That was the sound heard ‘round Cincinnati Sunday evening, as the 2009 Bengals bandwagon dropped off a few thousand patrons following a 20-17 turnover-filled loss to the Oakland Raiders in week 11.In a week that saw the queen of conservative politics blaze through Cincinnati on her cross-country book tour, the apprehensive attitude seemed to rub off on the Bengals’ play calling.Cincinnati offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski made good on a promise to focus on the run game despite the loss of running back Cedric Benson, distributing 36 carries between Bernard Scott, Brian Leonard, and Larry Johnson complimented by a few scampers by Carson Palmer.As the reliance on the run became evident in the second half, Oakland was able to creep their safeties closer to the line of scrimmage, frequently putting eight men in the box against a Bengals team determined to sit on a lead. With cornerbacks Nnamdi Asomugha and Chris Johnson handling Chad Ochocinco and Laveranues Coles in single coverage on the outside, Oakland could afford to challenge the Bengals to run the ball.When untimely fumbles by Jeremi Johnson, Palmer, and Andre Caldwell and a missed chip shot by Shayne Graham soured the Cincinnati strategy, the Bengals proved to have been their own worst enemy. A few weeks ago, when the New England Patriots were playing the Baltimore Ravens, Terrell Suggs bumped into Tom Brady's legs. As Tom Brady turned to the referee wanting a penalty, the ref immediately threw his flag.See, the rules in the NFL have changed. Hard to complete a pass while someone's hand is inside your face mask, isn't itThen, in overtime, Roethlisberger was scrambling when he dove while a Chiefs' player was tackling him. Another dove at Roethlisberger, hitting him in the head with his knee.Now, personally, I think the rules getting a little ridiculous.
Most of the quarterbacks are becoming cry babies like Brady when he was hopping around wanting the personal foul on Suggs.But rules are rules, and if they are going to be called for someone like Brady, shouldn't they be called for all quarterbacks Wouldn't Brady have gotten those calls if he had been hit like Roethlisberger was hit todayIf a personal foul would have been called on the hit Big Ben took in overtime, the Steelers would have had the ball on the Chiefs' 35-yard line. That would have put them in field-goal range to win the game and stay competitive in the AFC playoff race. The NFL needs to either change the rules so that hits like these are legal, or they need to be consistent with all of the signal callers in the NFL. Right now, I'm pretty sure that league officials are playing favorites..
