This is what it takes to get ejected from the game

Last night Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald was ejected in the 4th quarter during a skirmish. Donald knocked the helmet off of a 49ers player. Two flags were thrown on Donald. One for the obvious push to the player's head. The next was for coming in contact with an official.

I could not find where Donald every came in contact with a NFL official. I can only assume since the push to the 49ers head came within the vicinity of the official, that is close enough to count. 

The entire exchange was instigated by a dirty Rams player stepping on and kicking Blane Gabbert once a play was finished. 

Of course, the Panthers play both of these teams this season. Anyone hoping for a break from the flags and fines may be disappointed.

I need to re-watch but I didn't see contact to an official either. Did it occur after this gif? It seems the NFL is really trying to shove the point of ejections down the players throats early, for any reason. Turner jumping wait for Cam to come down the field, a non-exsistant touch. 

If you really look into it to, Taunting shouldn't be a ejectable offense. The Situation last year between OBJ and J. No. was about injuries and player safety... funny how hits to Cams head didn't merit the same consideration as OBJ launching himself at J. No's head... the reason this rule was implemented.

The NFL has such a short memory span.

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
