Beck should go into the draft. Particularly now that it was disclosed he missed classes for the last two years. That's bad even for SEC teams.
How many classes are we talking? Or do they mean
all classes?! I believe Beck is a senior anyway.
I have said in other forums it's only a matter of time before the scholastic requirements for student athletes is removed all together. Or at
most a player will be required to be enrolled in simply one class per year sort of thing. The money is too great, and the US is basically rooted in greed. Everything is corporate America now. Everything is about money.
While I agree with you in theory, holding and pass interference are observed and enforced in a highly subjective way.
Watch the UFL. Some of the replays and challenges of holding (line, and by DBs) has been fascinating to watch review, and hear Blandino and Pereira talk about. While there is subjectivity, what players and teams look for is consistency.
This is what I think has the Bills upset. No PI calls the entire game, until Denver's last drive. Though as I said before, they lost that game anyway, bad calls or no bad calls. They had plenty of chances to win and blew it. Same thing going back to the first Chiefs-Eagles SB. Was that last PI call valid? It wasn't consistent with the rest of the game. But the Eagles had 2, 3, chances to put that game away in the 4th quarter and couldn't do it.
Why not just select some random person at a pub, he or she could give their opinion after watching play, penalty call, and a replay or 2,3. between sips of beer.
They sort of tried that some years ago with Dennis Miller and Rush Limbaugh as guest commentators. The former was pretty bad aside from a few chuckles. The latter was a total unmitigated disaster.
It would appear with technology that individual players can have their actions during each play isolated in video. Why not just have analysts in New York to call penalties on every play?
The UFL has the Sky Judge team, that can do that, to a degree. But I agree technology is there to where another dozen 4k or 8k cameras could be put into every stadium - tied to software that detects things like motion (early offsides), and people watching monitors could be assigned to watch every player on every play, and call penalties accordingly. It may be strange, but fans will get used to it. The key again though will be consistency. But I can see this in the years ahead. I can actually see a day when less, maybe zero, referees are on the field even.
It sounds like Seattle will get George Holani back at RB. He was their 3rd string RB who played most similar to Charbonnet before he suffered a hamstring injury and went on IR. I honestly think people are overthinking Zach being out. If the Seahawks win the game it will be from Sam Darnold playing mistake free with a few clutch throws, and from their defense disrupting Stafford at least some. They don't do that, they certainly could lose. Charbonnet or no Charbonnet.
