applaud the dedication; while laughing at the execution. an SF tat is acceptable (i guess) but a player tat may result in this:

I'm honestly ok with Lattimore sitting out for a little longer... No need to rush him with the backs that we have... Better for him to be 100% certain that he can take hits than rush him

Just got my email for the brick I have in Levis Stadium... They sending out the maps :pimp: :pimp:
 
There shouldn't be any time missed he already sat out 5 games last year for rehab, it should be 5 games time served

Random but upon my arrival back into SFO last night I ran into Harbaugh...I was walking out and on the phone and I saw a guy in 9er sweats/sweatshirt/hat and did a double-take when I noticed it was him. I quietly said "coach" and he looked at me smiled and gave the nod as I kept it moving.

He's taller than I thought.
 
Mike Pereira says illegal contact, defensive holding will be points of emphasis in 2014

FOX Sports analyst, and former NFL VP of Officiating, Mike Pereira had some interesting tweets last night while in attendance at the league's officiating clinic. Pereira mentioned various areas where the league would have "points of emphasis" for the 2014 season. A "point of emphasis" is basically taking an existing rule and doing a better job of enforcing it to the letter of the law.

Last time the NFL had this as a major emphasis was 2004 and the number of illegal contact fouls went from 79 to 191.

NFL says they are offsetting this emphasis with an emphasis on calling offensive pass interference. Not an even trade in my opinion.

Honestly, I don't remember there being so many points of emphasis. Also, false starts, taunting, and others. I cover more later.

I retweeted the first tweet with a mention of Richard Sherman, and naturally that got people asking about it. The Seattle Seahawks  secondary can get incredibly physical, and there has been plenty of talk about the referees keeping a closer eye on them. All teams get away with some degree of physical play in their secondary, but it seems at times like the Seahawks push the limits of the rules as much as they can.

Personally, if you can get away with it, more power to you, but it will be interesting to see how much this impacts the Seahawks. The Seattle Times mentioned the Seahawks  in connection with this, but Mike Pereira did have an interesting tweet:

Btw, officials were shown many plays regarding illegal contact and defensive holding. How many Seahawk plays???. None.

9:28 PM - 18 Jul 2014
This certainly does not mean the Seahawks don't get away with illegal contact and defensive holding, but given all the talk about the Seahawks, I would have thought they might show some of their work. We'll see how this plays out in 2014.

Here is a look at the illegal contact and defensive holding penalties from the NFL rule book:
[h4]Section 4 - Legal and Illegal Contact With Eligible Receivers[/h4]
LEGAL CONTACT WITHIN FIVE YARDS
Article 1 - Legal Contact Within Five Yards.Within five yards of the line of scrimmage, a defensive player may chuck an eligible receiver in front of him. The defender is allowed to maintain continuous and unbroken contact within the five-yard zone, so long as the receiver has not moved beyond a point that is even with the defender.

ILLEGAL CONTACT WITHIN FIVE YARDS
Article 2 - Illegal Contact Within Five Yards. Within the five-yard zone, if the player who receives the snap remains in the pocket with the ball, a defender may not make original contact in the back of a receiver, nor may he maintain contact after the receiver has moved beyond a point that is even with the defender.

ILLEGAL CONTACT BEYOND FIVE-YARD ZONE
Article 3 - Illegal Contact Beyond Five-Yard Zone. Beyond the five-yard zone, if the player who receives the snap remains in the pocket with the ball, a defender may use his hands or arms only to defend or protect himself against impending contact caused by a receiver. If the receiver attempts to evade the defender, the defender cannot initiate contact that redirects, restricts, or impedes the receiver in any way.

INCIDENTAL CONTACT BEYOND FIVE-YARD ZONE
Article 4 - Incidental Contact Beyond Five-Yard Zone. Beyond the five-yard zone, incidental contact may exist between receiver and defender as long as it does not materially affect or significantly impede the receiver, creating a distinct advantage.

DEFENSIVE HOLDING
Article 6 - Defensive Holding. It is defensive holding if a player grasps an eligible offensive player (or his jersey) with his hands, or extends an arm or arms to cut off or encircle him.
 
man its crazy how deep this team is. i went and compared this current team to the previous niner teams position for position going back to 2010. in each position comparison this team not only wins starter vs starter vs every previous team, but some of our current backups are better than some of our previous years starters.

i don't remember if this is the right era but it's depressing to recall that during that 2010 time period, this thread was entrenched in deep conflict and debate over who would get us to at least 6 wins: JT O'Sullivan or Troy Smith :lol:

everyday, before every meal, i stop to say grace in order to thank the good gods or sending us Jim Harbaugh, Vic Fangio and that 2011 draft.
