NFL Gameday: Divisional Round • Page 29

I think I'd rather change the rule so that if you fumble the ball out of bounds anywhere on the field the other team gets possession.

 

If they allowed retroactively calling penalties on plays already being reviewed, it would be complained about a dozen times a game because there are uncalled penalties in every single play. You can’t have perfect refs, just isn’t possible.

 

“Rules should be arbitrarily applied to make ratings better.”

Galaxy brain dumb shit

 

He fumbled the ball because of a helmet to helmet hit but we can’t review the health hazard because ugh I don’t know

 

Helmet to Helmet should be reviewable on any play if you actually give a shit about player safety.

 

Browns should protest that shit.

 

Well if the shitty refs called it correctly in the first place (helmet to helmet) then we wouldn’t be in this situation

 

How are on the pylon and miss that call. It’s insane you have nowhere else to look

 

Yeah, penalties get missed every game. It sucks. But applying which rules you do or don’t like in order to make a game more exciting at the time is idiotic.

 

can't wait to hear all offseason about that missed call for the Browns even though they'll probably lose by 3+ scores anyways

 

It’s more of a complaint about the rule and not actually advocating they don’t call it dude

 

which is why they should protest that shit now!

you're gonna lose anyway. might as well take a stand against shit like this

 

I'm more specifically talking about helmet to helmet plays. The NFL likes to pretend that they care about player safety and have tried to "enhance" that rule. It should be reviewable at the point of action, not like away from the play or anything.

 

This is what a fan of a team who hasn’t made the playoffs and doesn’t have a qb would say

 

Drag his ass

 

I agree with that then, no reason helmet-to-helmet spears like that shouldn’t be reviewable.

 

But it's also laughably bad that the ref was literally right there

 

look man I've been dealing with Jets fans all day on Twitter I am in no mood!

 

Sorensen hits like that quite a bit. Glad everyone is seeing that now.

 

Every 15yd penalty should be reviewable. Its a massive turning of the tide (especially since almost all come with auto-1st downs).

Leave offside/false start/holding and petty stuff like that to not be reviewed...but if I think a ref f'd up a late hit call, it should be reviewable

 

This is where I am with that, I think you should be punished on offense for fumbling the ball so I don't hate the touch back rule and would go even further as well.

I'm also tired of constant rule changes that favor the offense in this league too tho so maybe I'm a spoil sport
