Is the defense tired? Where is the pass rush? Where is the tackling?

I honestly don't know why that wasn't an illegal block on Thomas. Way past 1 yard and could have been a blindside block.

But WRs still can't block past 1 yard downfield before the ball is caught, right?

Yeah if that was the flag then they should have thrown it. Initially thought it was for illegal Crack back

I thought they weren't doing the commercial-kickoff-commercial thing anymore.

It was two plays in a row where their WR or TE was blocking downfield was past 1 yard. Hope Zimmer is in their ear about that ####.

Yeah, I don't see our defense stopping new Orleans for the rest of the game. We need a score.
