Don't care what side of any fence you are on. All that's telling anybody is their ranking should have been higher, probably 1st. And you don't know what each of those specific infractions were, so what's your point? 70 penalties, 461 rushing plays, and 675 passing plays. None of which changes the fact that they should been called for a lot more than just 70 and given the number of plays they ran from scrimmage, the Donks being ranked 7th in most penalties is quite misleading. Also proves they didn't play against any legit Defenses, as the SB also proved.
You are incorrect. eydugstr and I have discussed that here on this forum before, amongst other dirty tactics that Donkeys blockers were getting away with at that time, all taught to them by an O-Line coach named Alex Gibbs You simply haven't been paying attention. Are you really dumb enough to believe Schlereth's statement that they wore greasy substance to "get the refs attention so that they'd make the correct calls in the trench". That's a crock of BS. Defenders have always been allowed to grab Offensive blockers on running plays & opposing O-Lineman on passing plays since the game was invented and that has never changed. If the refs made the proper call, they would have ejected the Donks O-Lineman from the game because that is a blatant violation of league rules, same as using stickum which got outlawed in the early '80's. They weren't even made to take those jerseys off in that game & all they did was wipe them with towels. Schlereth is just being a clever liar like his twin brothers Elway and Bowlen.
And everybody saw what happened to Terrel Davis in '99 when those dirty blocking tactics were taken away from them. Davis got the living hell beaten out of him and didn't last 4 games into the '99 season and his career was essentially over.
Running away due to the difficulty you seem to be having refuting a whole slew of valid points that I've made, are we?
