Emmanuel Sanders and the mysterious cramping

hilarious when he jogged out the next play

While I'm not saying that he did not fake it, it is not uncommon in sports to have cramps such as that. Furthermore, it is not uncommon for it to go away really swiftly too if you stretch if properly. My point is, if he actually had a cramp it would not be strange at all if he was able to play and run again perfectly fine the next play. If you've ever played or watched soccer you know this.

It could actually happen. But he looked over to the sidelines and then dropped to the ground.

Teams have been doing the fake injury thing for awhile...some call it cheap, others call it savvy. I could care less but you like to see a better acting job. At least it wasn't as bad as the giants last year when 2 guys flopped at the same time.

Maybe you are onto something babe.

Call it what you will, but that stuff happens all around the NFL on various plays. . .like running into the punter. The punter barely gets touched and falls to the ground like they have to bring out the crash cart for him. WHen linemen push ahd shove and to get a penalty, the shoved linemen will fall on his back Greg "The Hammer" Valentine.

I don't particularly agree with it, but if everyone else is doing it, why shouldn't the Steelers join the party?
