BigRedBuster Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 This play was huge for many reasons. I thought we would see more of this with Palmer, but this play is after CT was sat for not throwing it deep. Now, if he does this a few more times, defenses will need to adjust for it helping everything else work better. 1 Quote Link to comment

I think we've actually seen him run quite a few great deep routes through the first five games, but several times Thompson has either underthrown it or overthrown it. Agreed that if Casey keeps those on the money it'll change the way other things open up. Quote Link to comment

Palmer has 10 targets 20+ yards downfield and 6 catches. 26 total throws 20+ yards downfield in five games. Completed 14 which isn't terrible but on a lot of the misses the WR hasn't even had a chance. Quote Link to comment

They changed things recently (or not that recently) that pulling people off a pile is a 15 yard penalty. Edit: I'm wrong, Cocoron pushed him back in another one of those plays/actions that's not called at all that the refs were calling all night. Also embellished by the defender to draw the penalty.

If anything, it looked like 3 pushed him, but it was such a light push. Oh well... we won. Was this all in the second half so Corcoran isn't available for the first half of Rutgers?

But I think the coaches would have clarified that, there have been a couple questions about him having back to back penalties so if they knew one wasn't on him they would've said something. So I'm assuming there was something after the fact - the flag you see in the video was for the facemask. And it was in the first half so he's good. I think the suspension carryover for 2nd half ejections is just for Targeting anyway? But I could be wrong there. Bizarre series of events in any case, even the ejection was questionable. It was a penalty for sure and stupid, but it wasn't a punch. And that ref is so pretentious about it - "by his actions, the player has disqualified himself from the game!" Just say he's ejected like a normal human being. Quote Link to comment

I don't remember when it was but I think the sit-out only applies to targeting so he should be good. Quote Link to comment

I thought the conference was supposed to weigh in on any punches or fighting. I haven't heard anything though. 1 Quote Link to comment
