2023 NFL Week Two After Further Review Part Five: Jake

Well, Jake the Asshole (no endorsement, just to have the video up) posted his weekly Top 10.

mumbles "Surprised he kept it to ten!"  

So here we go.

#10:  DeShaun Watson's two personal-foul facemasks.  Jake doesn't (yet?) address the altercation with the official.

#9:  Packers-Falcons, 24-12 3rd and 3 for the Falcons at their 43, half a minute into the fourth-quarter previously-discussed league-ordered laydown.  And this is a perfect illustration, and one of Jake's Points of Emphasis, the Slop Play.  Since the Atlanta QB underthrew the fleaflicker, the receiver has to stop, the Green Bay DB would be in perfect position until he "misplays himself" behind said receiver, allowing for the 44-yard gain.

#8:  Jaguars-Chiefs, and another of Jake breaking into song:  Muff Punt City (to the tune of "Paradise City").  Jacksonville punts, no one within about 5 yards of the receiver, and in the classic vein of "You Had One Job...  (ONE JOB!!!)", the ball is fumbled to the Jaguars at the 10.  1st play of the second quarter, leads to the first score of the game, a Jacksonville field goal.

#7:  Rams-49ers, not the end of the game (that's one of about three different candidates I have for #1 as I do this while watching).  17-17, about four minutes to go in the third, Rams driving.  Another one of those intentional bat-ups for the pick.  The receiver is at least four yards wide open and doesn't have that difficult (on a professional level) of the catch.  He bats it up, picked off.  Leads to a 49ers field goal.

#6:  Bears-Buccaneers  Three minutes to go third quarter, tied at 14.  Bears at the Tampa 24, first down.  Justin Fields has all day to pass, finds nothing, all day to figure out a run, and dives into the pile to lose three yards...  And then Jake shows the replay with two blatantly open receivers.

...

Drive stalls, field goal.

#5:  Broncos-Commanders, the game-losing no-time-left 2-point conversion DPI no-call already discussed.  (That was one of my three candidates for #1, because of the direct role it had in deciding the result.)

#4:  Back to Buccaneers-Bears:  Blatant OPI push-off no-call.  And actually shows in an angle the NFL does not want you to see, the shoulder shiver by Mike Evans on the 70-yard pass which leads to a second-quarter touchdown and a 10-7 Tampa lead.

#3:  Back to Steelers-Browns.  6 minutes to go second quarter, 11-10 Cleveland.  The George Pickens touchdown and a mess of botched defense.  No one picks up Pickens and any attempt to tackle leaves faceplants.  16-11 at the end of that one.

#2:  Back to 49ers-Rams, and again, not the situation at the end.  (So at least one of that situation or the Steeler pick-six doesn't even make the list???)  1st and 10 at the SF 35, game is 7-3 SF, last play of the first quarter.  Christian McAffrey gets the one Ram who isn't picked up in the hole to LITERALLY lay down for him.  A second attempt faceplants, McAffrey gains 51 yards.  Field goal.

#1:  Hoo boy, what do you do here, Jake?  

The field goal at the end of the Ram-49er game -- but without adding the possibility that there could've been a faint shot at 2 scores.
