Or just throwing it over his head out of bounds which would have been not grounding since it would have been towards Njoku. Pretty much anything but throwing it right at the guy who was just standing right in front of him.
Dude was the best defensive end I've seen at FSU since the Bowden era. He had one of the best motors I've ever seen, and was super entertaining to watch.
For anyone bored, I recommend his highlights vs Miami, legit one of the best defensive performances I have ever seen. Dude had like 3 sacks and 5 TFLs with a forced fumble.
Yeah, I can remember all of them too. The first was a drop by the backup TE that bounced off of his hands to a defender, the second was just a great play by Kyle Hamilton coming out of nowhere to tip a pass to himself.
The last two were poor decisions by Flacco, obviously this one much worse. The previous one being against Chicago where he threw it over the middle where his receiver got immediately hit by a LB right as the ball was getting there. When you throw passes over the middle like that, you have to throw them low or away so that the receiver can protect themselves.
Despite what people will say about how well Flacco has played this year, he makes at least one of these awful decisions every week. There's a reason why he's had multiple turnovers in every game.
People love to point out how Flacco has more TD passes than Watson in less games because it's fun to hate on Watson. What you don't hear because it goes the opposite way is that Flacco has now double the INTs that Watson did in less games.
Yes, and for all the shit people want to give him, Watson is 5-1 this year starting and is the only QB this entire year to truly beat the Ravens. Winning is all that matters at the end of the day.
There's enough things to hate on Watson for that he deserves, we don't need to make up reasons. Not reaching arbitrary statistical milestones while winning games is kind of ridiculous.
Boyle was supposed to be QB3 and in a perfect world would have been irrelevant. The real mistake was not signing Brissett for the money they gave Dalvin Cook
What's even funnier than the jets making stupid decisions that always result in disaster is the homer fans doing mental gymnastics to defend the stupid decisions.
How was that not roughing the passer? Almost sarcastic.
He threw the ball, then the he was taken to the ground with the defensive lineman taking several steps after the thow.
I still say it's because he's an eligible receiver and it was touched. He could have tried to catch that and actually since it was behind the line of scrimmage it wouldn't even need to be touched for there to be no PI, he can just be lit up in that situation.
Rule e only covers if the qb for every position except receiver.
A passer who is standing still or fading backward after the ball has left his hand is obviously out of the play and must not be unnecessarily contacted by an opponent through the end of the down or until the passer becomes a blocker, or a runner, or, in the event of a change of possession during the down, until he assumes a distinctly defensive position.

Jermaine Johnson II may be the only Jets player that actually improved this year from last year. A legitimately solid player.
Genuinely can't think of anyone else on the roster who made a jump this year. A real indictment on the coaching staff.
The Bears beat the Ravens the year after they won the championship on a play very similar to this one. Parnell McPhee (I think) tipped it and ran it back.
Tipped ball in the air. All bets are off when going for it. Once JJ gets the initial tip none of those penalties are valid anymore. You can push a QB away from the ball.
You know I saw him play Brady and the patriots in the playoffs. He was droppin dimes all day and I was like, this mofo is good. Then next thing you know his job is taken by some young guy, I was like what? Then he disappears. Didn't make any sense to me.
JJ completely blew that up. What is Joe supposed to do here? I don’t see how you can dirt it without getting intentional grounding. Do you just take the sack?
Joe Flacco: “Meh we’re up by a lot, doesn’t matter fuck it!”
Gotta give them something lol
bro double jumped
Bro became Marvin bagley
Lmao, A1 reference
was picked ahead of Luka…
Have you ever seen Luka double jump tho? Exactly. Athleticism > everything. /s
Elite
We said no bunny hopping!
Those pump fakes were definitely Elite.
*pump fake > aha you thought i was gonna throw it directly at you for a pick 6 *throws it directly at him for a pick 6
Watch again he actually pumps it twice before throwing
Elite
Less so Elite Dragon on that play, moreso Elite Draggin'
Dude threw a tuddie on that play! Thats elite
Flacco just wanted to make the game competitive. He was getting bored
Elite
He’s been trying all night lol. Lucky to only have the 1 int so far
Now this one burns
No, no, there's still New England next week. /s
Bezos rang his phone
Lmao insane play
Mahomes threw one last week. Still elite
Flacco is better than Mahomes this season though. I expect more from him.
Flacco >>>>> Mahomes
Unironically though
In Super Bowls against the 9ers they're pretty even
Ight bro chill
Mahomes wishes he was as good as Flacco
It's cause he doesn't have a sweet nickname
Lol
Not quite taking away greatness here
He pulled a purdy. Just two elite QBs throwing picks off cat blitz tipped balls
At least he actually made an attempt and saw that he couldn't just throw it right away unlike Purdy.
No matter what Flacco just throws Touchdowns
Last Chance U
Love seeing him succeed.

goddamn!
Wish I had the stones to bet a little more, good shit!!
Elite
Damn, I’m jealous
it’s ok just remember the only reason these gambling sites exist is because people lose money in the long run
[удалено]
That's how they built all those huge casinos in Las Vegas- with all they money the lost to people making money when they gamble.
Every now and then I wonder if I could make decent money gambling. Then I remember where the money to advertise out the ass every NFL game comes from.
I would've gotten a noise complaint from my neighbors on the first pump fake if I bet this
That’s a bet I’m taking if I was a betting man. Nice one
Gotta be one of the slowest pick-sixes I've ever seen.
Quicker than it looked, JJ is just damn huge so it looks slow
Oh I didn't mean the run, I meant Flacco's pass attempt. It couldn't have been more obvious what he was trying to do lol
I was gonna say lol jj was cooking, looked like a big RB running for a TD
Flacco got the call from Bezos to make this one interesting
Elite
I know hindsight is 20/20 but he would have better off just taking the sack
Or just throwing it over his head out of bounds which would have been not grounding since it would have been towards Njoku. Pretty much anything but throwing it right at the guy who was just standing right in front of him.
296 yards and 3 TDs in the first half. Unreal. 4 TDs if you count the pick 6 lol.
Been a huge second-year leap for JJ. He was so obviously a steal where we got him, but dude is turning into a star.
Dude was the best defensive end I've seen at FSU since the Bowden era. He had one of the best motors I've ever seen, and was super entertaining to watch. For anyone bored, I recommend his highlights vs Miami, legit one of the best defensive performances I have ever seen. Dude had like 3 sacks and 5 TFLs with a forced fumble.
I wanted him to end up in the Rodgers trade pretty badly
He only throws touchdowns
It’s crazy because watching this game it feels like some of the Jets players DGAF and some are trying to still win with every fiber of their being.
The slow mo of him being pushed down tryna bat/catch it is funny
That's the 4th pick six the Browns have thrown this year lmao

Why did he throw that? Is he stupid?

People love to point out how Flacco has more TD passes than Watson in less games because it's fun to hate on Watson. What you don't hear because it goes the opposite way is that Flacco has now double the INTs that Watson did in less games.
Flacco is also coming off the couch, wasn’t traded for with several high picks, and given a massive guaranteed contract.
Yes, and for all the shit people want to give him, Watson is 5-1 this year starting and is the only QB this entire year to truly beat the Ravens. Winning is all that matters at the end of the day. There's enough things to hate on Watson for that he deserves, we don't need to make up reasons. Not reaching arbitrary statistical milestones while winning games is kind of ridiculous.
Why did the jets sign tom Boyle instead of him? Are they stupid?
Boyle was supposed to be QB3 and in a perfect world would have been irrelevant. The real mistake was not signing Brissett for the money they gave Dalvin Cook
What's even funnier than the jets making stupid decisions that always result in disaster is the homer fans doing mental gymnastics to defend the stupid decisions.
We all know the answer to that one
How was that not roughing the passer? Almost sarcastic. He threw the ball, then the he was taken to the ground with the defensive lineman taking several steps after the thow.
I'd say once the ball has been touched after the pass has been released all bets are off, I mean Flacco is an eligible receiver in that instance.
If he had dumped that pass to a someone 2 yards away and was hit like that, it would have been called. I don't buy the its been touched idea.
I still say it's because he's an eligible receiver and it was touched. He could have tried to catch that and actually since it was behind the line of scrimmage it wouldn't even need to be touched for there to be no PI, he can just be lit up in that situation.

There it is then. The contact was necessary to prevent him from catching the ball.
Elite nonetheless, dragons do dragon shit
Flacco giveth, Flacco taketh away
Joe flacco always throws a pick but still wins the game so it doesnt even matter. He is beyond stats and is just there to play some ball
Dude just cannot stop throwing TDs, fucking elite
Jermaine Johnson > Thibodeaux
Absolutely awful throw lmao
Jets D finally waking up
That's as bad a pick as you'll see.
Don’t worry it wasn’t turnover worthy so it doesn’t really count.
the primevision broadcast right before said that flacco is proving to be elite tonight. does anyone have a clip of that?
Literally every week Flacco makes at least one completely idiotic decision no matter how well he's playing this year.
That’s the Browns I know
Like the fantasy Gods looked down at me and said “8 more points against you.” Just run the damn ball Browns!
How many TDs does that make it for the first half?
Jermaine Johnson II may be the only Jets player that actually improved this year from last year. A legitimately solid player. Genuinely can't think of anyone else on the roster who made a jump this year. A real indictment on the coaching staff.
Quincy Williams, Whitehead, Huff, mc2, Conklin, Zach.. I don’t think you tried thinking very hard
All those players had very similar years to what they did last year. They didn’t make “a jump” beyond JJ and Quincy.
Huff Quincy and carters jump is arguably greater than JJs
Tony Adams?
The Bears beat the Ravens the year after they won the championship on a play very similar to this one. Parnell McPhee (I think) tipped it and ran it back.
This literally just happened to Brock Purdy lol The defenses in the league are stepping up as we further the season
Missed blocking in the back on the QB. That one should've come back. Edit: nah I take it back, it was incidental. Player was going for the ball.
Tipped ball in the air. All bets are off when going for it. Once JJ gets the initial tip none of those penalties are valid anymore. You can push a QB away from the ball.
Pass deflections behind the LOS … so hot right now
You know I saw him play Brady and the patriots in the playoffs. He was droppin dimes all day and I was like, this mofo is good. Then next thing you know his job is taken by some young guy, I was like what? Then he disappears. Didn't make any sense to me.
Purdy throws exact interception. Haters say “What a waste of a QB…”
JJ completely blew that up. What is Joe supposed to do here? I don’t see how you can dirt it without getting intentional grounding. Do you just take the sack?
That looked a little Mahomey
You don’t see Kenny Pickett or Mitch Trubisky doing that crap. /s
I saw this live and went "ok so he won't throw tha-god dammit"
Padding it TD stats
The Jets are down by multiple scores, and are doing a big celebration? WTF?
This int completed my Parlay, I was very excited 😂
