Weird to think Slim Shady is like, a 15 year old song.

Practically classic rock.

Yeah I agree, he clearly had possession until the ball hit the ground. His "football move" should be the stretch out, if he were a runner as soon as he breaks the plain he doesn't need to have possession, rule needs to change.

Our passing defense is looking rather fragile out there. Hopefully they can get something worked out before the half.

Teams already not wanting to kick to Patterson?

This would be a great time for a bomb.

They have always given the runner a big advantage over the receiver when scoring TD's I feel .

I know right....lol we can't get ahead of ourselves. Though I would be very surprised if Ponder managed to do one though.

Time for Ponder to step up. Need the 3rd down conversion here...
