Like Oly mentioned this is sort of a head scratcher for me as 70% of the game was sub par play from the Hawk's offense as they once again played below average and at times got two simple, with run run pass, 3 and out.
Few things stood out to me. First the referee's seems to let the players be physical and hand fight out there, and I quite enjoyed that and I felt it was pretty fair on both sides. However the hands to the face were called quite often, and really hurt our team both sides of the ball, and if you go back and watch the final drive the 2 to 3 plays before JSN scored the game sealing TD you can see Jason Peters throw his hands straight up into Myles Garret two plays in a row, and you can see his head get pushed back(however I would imagine he has a tree stump of a neck) and those weren't called, thankfully. They really could have called it twice in a row, and not sure why they didn't at that time.
Next I felt we rant he ball quite well, both ZC and K9 had excellent average yds per carry. However, Geno once again played quite poor. At times showed good accuracy, but other times put the ball in the dirt or at the feet of DK.
I do have a question, and since I watched this on replay it condenses the game and I miss quite a bit of the commercial commentary between breaks, but what was up with Pete on the sideline after Geno threw an INT. I mean it was a clearly a bad read, and perfect play on the DB, and a clean INT. However, Pete was going all "Karen" on the sideline with the Refs and anyone hear afterwards or know why?

RD is right: Pete thought Garrett lined up in the neutral zone. Here's a Field Gulls article with a screenshot. https://www.fieldgulls.com/2023/10/29/2 ... wns-week-8
The thing is that the screenshot in that story wasn't the last frame before the snap. This tweet shows that it might have been much closer to a clean play from Garrett when the ball was snapped: https://twitter.com/johhay/status/1718749082917990489

A few years ago, I was at a game where Michael Bennett got called for lining up offside twice on two consecutive plays.
