[CBFF] 52 passes?

[Jim Ferolie]

14 penalties. 14 penalties. 14 penalties.

What else matters?

The refs were absolutely awful, but the play was more awful. It was a 
disaster. Like Alex Brown lining up in the neutral zone on Harris' 
drive-ending sack. Come on man, don't you know where the freakin' neutral 
zone is?
