Anyone else see what the Vikings HC said after the game?

The reason for the rule and the way it's used by players are at complete odds. The reason for the rule is to protect the QB. The way the QB uses it is to wait until the last possible second, and then slide in the hope of getting a penalty, the result is you get hit in the head when if you hadn't slid you'd get hit in the mid section. QBs know exactly what they're doing , so don't bitch about it when you get injured.

F Mike Zimmer.

Dudes players in Cincy were thugs, constantly going low on knees etc whenever they could. Reggie Nelson is a perfect example of his "coaching" and the type of player he brought in, same guy who was with Aaron Hernandez in a shooting at Florida.

So much f'ing integrity he brought in Pacman Jones after the Las Vegas shootings and all the other crap. Punched a woman etc.

How about Vontaze Burfict while he was there, hitting guys in the groin, tried to hurt Cam Newton and Greg Olson twisting their ankles.....all guys brought up under the tutelage of one Mike Zimmer. What a freaking joke.....karma's a you-know-what Mike Zimmer.

If your QB is going to run and is outside the pocket, all bets are off. He is treated like a runner and has to accept the consequences. Don't want to get hit, slide a fuck load earlier. Fucking lightweights!

About what? Being angry over Zimmers comments that could lead to referees going back to throwing flags on th Rams if they breath rong again? That stuff finally stopped this year. I don't want it back, but public outcry seems to count when it comes to the Rams are dirty talk.
.

What's hypocritical? Mr.Cheap shot Rodney Harrison chiming in on this lol. I don't think Joyner targeted or intentionally tried to hurt Bridgewater.. was it deserving a flag? yea, was late. But was it malicious? no.

He's a scrambling QB - if you wanna run with your QB and take that risk, its on you. It's of course a defense's mentality to hit hard when they can, particularly the QB, to rattle him. That's football.

I really think this is getting overblown at this point - just glad Faulk and Primetime also don't think it was malicious. This type of thing happens all the time - only reason why people care is because Teddy got hurt. Foles has been hit a number of times that didn't even get flags but yet players were fined - didn't hear a "clay matthews is dirty" outcry when he deliberately led with his helmet and someone went at Foles' legs.

The rules to protect the QBs while they are running are BS! I wonder how they would react to Tavon or Gurley linning up at QB and running? They could get some real mileage out of a fake slide or two!

Pardon my french, but it's fucking football. Like everything else in this country, we are getting more and more pussified. I'm sick of it. It's a fast game, played by big fast players that hit hard. Sometimes these things happen. But trying to blame it on Williams and say Joyner is dirty is being a whiny little bitch.

You know what I love? Not a single person has bitched about Johnny Hekker getting absolutely lit up on a punt return. He fucking laughed it off like a real man that gets fucking blindsided. And that SHOULD have been a penalty. Fuck the Vikings. I pray we see them again in the playoffs.

Yeah I loved that, I'm no lip leader but it looked like Hekker said "Ha Ha you got me :)".

Edit: Lip not rip (wtf?)

The refs mailed it in on that play. Missing a block in the back as well.

Remember when Linvall Joseph very deliberately threw a violent forearm into Foles throat, well after he had thrown the ball?

Well that's what a good team of guys coached the right way do.

Man I fucking hate the Vikings

He's just salty his QB went down and he's trying to play the bounty card to get people in more trouble over it. how about you man up and coach your players better, coach them not to run with the ball if they're not a HB, coach them to run better routes and getting open so Teddy doesn't even think about running the ball and he can focus on hitting them in stride or coach them to go through there progressions better but don't pick up the bullshit blame card and start bringing up pasts and shit.

Teddy got a rushing TD and thought "hey that worked pretty damn well, we can win off this" then Teddy ran in a 2 point conversion and thought "wow, they really cant stop this" Then later they got the ball back and Teddy went for it again, but, this time Teddy thought "this is the best damn sleep I've had in awhile, zZzZzZzZz"

Once your QB passes that LOS with the ball don't cry when he gets creamed, If you don't want him to get creamed then don't allow him to convert himself into a HB in the final quarter of the game. simple as that. I love the aggressiveness GW brought to this defense and I loved the hit, let it be known that we will not be afraid to put your star QB out if he tries to get fancy out there.

Said his team played a clean game. Also said he knows there's a history with the Rams defensive coordinator and he would "leave it at that."

Yeah because the Rams are the only team to hit a qb going into a slide. They're the only ones who have injured a qb. Get out of here with that nonsense.
Do you have a Link!?
freak him.
I LOVE Brevity!!^

Exactly the point i've been banging into the ground. If Teddy gets up, shakes it off, gives Joyner a stare down instead...no one outside of Rams/Viking Nation is talking about this That type of play happens every week, but the Rams are dirty. Ok then....
