I didn't hear anyone who saw it saying anything about it being intentional until the talking heads started their diatribe. I think the whole thing is being blown out of proportion for the sake of creating drama to improve ratings.

Tripping is against the rules.
I'll update if I find something newer that disagrees with what I just found (it's from 2009), but:
The league defines tripping as "the use of the leg or foot in obstructing any opponent (including a runner).”
It's quite simple, man. Tripping is against the rules.
Also
Section 1 Blocking, Use of Hands, Arms, and Body
LEGAL AND ILLEGAL BLOCK
Article 1 A player of either team may block (obstruct or impede) an opponent at any time, provided that
the act is not:
(a) pass interference;
(b) illegal contact;
(c) fair catch interference;
(d) clipping against a non-runner;
(e) an illegal chop block;
(f) an illegal crackback block;
(g) an illegal low block during a free kick, scrimmage kick, or after a change of possession;
(h) unnecessary roughness;
(i) roughing the passer;
(j) an illegal cut block;
(k) roughing the kicker;
(l) offensive or defensive holding;
(m) illegal use of hands;
(n) tripping;
(o) illegal peel back block; and
(p)

They are showing replays on ESPN. First time I saw the 'Sanchez runs into own player, fumbles' play. lulz. Embarrassing. But hilarious.

Was thankfully watching that game live...OMG that's the single most hilarious play I've ever seen....He takes off and runs into his own lineman who wasn't even moving and somehow manages to hit him in such a way that he fumbles before being "down" and then they take it in for six the other way.

Looks intentional.
No way you could fail to see that lineman.
Sanchez is on the take.☠ By reading this post, you have agreed to my negative reputation terms of service.

Going for 2 with 10:56 to go...in the 2nd quarter.
Edit: And they didn't make it + had a holding penalty anyway.
Stupid decision was stupid.

My wife needs 7 more points from the Philly kicker to beat me in our family league, and I'm pretty sure she is going to pull it off. We will be the 2nd and 3rd highest scorers this week. :farles:

Big ole Brycie Brown under the Philly lights, I might've beat Chaz even if he started Brady.
&
8 more and I'll pass assto for the weeks high scoring.
