I watched the replay just one time in regular speed, and I didn't think it looked like anything. Maybe a flaggable pick, but I didn't actually rewind it to see when he made contact. Didn't look dirty to me.

If Welker had actually hit someone hard enough to draw a flag he (Welker) would still be in a coma.

I'm not a big fan of what he did, but it was exactly the same situation with DRC on the other end of it on Pat's previous possession. If one was going to be a flag/fine, the other one would have had to be too.
I think it comes down to the two teams playing physical.

Saw this on Huffpo and thought you guys might get a kick out of it. It's a graphic of all of the documented injuries that occurred this NFL season by location.

Needs a comparison against last year.

The 11 pectoral injuries gave me a chuckle, though.

Looks like 70% below the waist to above the waist, but it does need last year's to compare.

There's just no pleasing you people! What I meant was, it would be interesting to see how it lines up compared to previous years - before all the changes in order to protect against head injuries. There is a part of my tiny dinosaur brain that wonders what happens when you begin colliding these guys together more frequently and violently where their centers of gravity are. And also, now that defenders go away from their target's head area, are defenders sustaining more head injuries and serious injuries in general now that they are more violently targeting center of mass with their own heads? I understand why they make the rule changes to protect the players, but I begin to wonder if it is working at all, or even having the opposite effect. I can't remember seeing so many injuries as during this past season.

I thought that they might have hired him to replace Flacco.

They did. As whipping boy, not QB though.

Did the Ravens fire their GM? Because that's the biggest fuckup in the entire organization.

Strange since Ozzie Newsome has been feted as one of the best all around GMs in the NFL for the past 5-10 years.

He has done a great job in the past building that team to a place where they could win a Super Bowl by, let's face it, pure unadulterated luck in Denver.
The problem is he let the Flacco deal linger until it was impossible not to overpay him, and Flacco is a mediocre QB. The salary cap situation in Baltimore is now a complete disaster, and it's all the GM's fault. Baltimore isn't going to get back to the playoffs.
They are going to have 4 players in 2014 with a $53M cap hit. That's about $10M higher than the top 4 in Seattle and the top 4 in Denver including Peyton's $17.5M hit.

I'm guessing one of those is Ray Rice but who the hell else do they have that they've paid so handsomely? Suggs? That number makes the Boldin trade more understandable yet still is a disaster in the making. They should never have let Flacco go so long that they HAD to pay him way over his value.

$16 million for NGATA? I mean he's good and all, but that's a shitload of cap space for a nose tackle who actually regressed a bit last year.

Well there's always the Lions, where Suh, Stafford and Megatron will have a combined cap hit of $51.3M next year...

At least those three are more productive.
