Trying to kill the clock, Bulger fumbles the ball at his own 28 with 1:50. Cards take over just needing a FG to win, get a first down inside the 20 and just need 3 snaps and a kick from 35 yards and Warner fumbles the snap back to St. Louis. Rams win and Bill Maas is frecking CLUELESS. This guy is the worst NFL announcer in history.
Rams game is insane!!

#4Plus the Rams declined the final penalty, which should have given the Cardinals a final kick for a FG, from way out. But when the Rams found out about this very rare rule, they changed their mind and accepted the penalty instead. Can't do that...Comment -

#5Would have been great to see Rackers try the FG from 75 yards out. I think he's got to kick it off the ground, so tough to see him getting the distance.
I think the Rams coaches knew the rule, but were confused on the penalty. I've seen refs signal a penalty declined and then later switched because of the situation. Not sure if there even is a rule on that.Comment -

#8I didn't see the game.
But I can only imagine what Maas sounded like.
SS is right: he is brutal. He was paired with some kid who calls NASCAR races last week for CAR-MIN and the production and announcing was the worst I'd seen since a particlarly bad HS game on local access cable a few years ago.
Maas got a job back when Madden was still Madden (which was a while ago), because some suit half-listened to him and imagined a vague resemblence, at least to Millen, who was then the poor man's Madden. That Maas has hung on despite such rank incompetence means there's plenty of incompetence elsewhere, too.
Sam Rosen must have told them he couldn't take it anymore. . .Last edited by Jay Edgar; 09-25-06, 06:19 PM.Comment -

#10I was going to mention that last week. The cameraman got fooled on the play fake about 10 times. It was so bad.
Couple things today on Maas. Arizona throws a challenge flag on a catch on the sideline. As they go to commercial, they show the replay and Maas says "great challenge. incomplete pass." They come back, play stands, and he says "i knew that was close."
In the final minutes, neither he or the play-by-play guy said the Rams should decline the penalty and just take a knee on the final snap. They never even knew it was a possibility until they lined up. The play-by-play guy then says as Bulger is under center "they just need to punt the ball away again.....Actually Bulger will just take a knee."
Gus Johnson was awful in the Browns game. I never noticed until someone pointed it out a few weeks ago that he literally screams on every other play.

#11Wow sounds like a good game too watch, too bad I missed it. But Wilkins did get me some nice points for my fantasy team
The should pull Warner out soon and put in Leinart. It seems more like the debate in Tenessee though.. I don't think they want to put in their rookie QB to get murdered by the Defense.Comment -

#12That was a strange ending to that game, but what I saw was that the right guard was pulling and knocked the ball out of Warner's hand!!I haven't read about that anywhere but it surely looked like he did...his left hand went right between Kurt's and dislodged the ball. I watched the interview after but got to it late so I am not sure he said anything about it...

#13ESPN just reported Leinart will start Sunday against Atlanta. This guy can't be ready to play yet. He missed some camp with a holdout and didn't play much in preseason. Typical Dennis Green. How this guy is still a head coach in this league is beyond me. Arizona is a mess.
