Unnecessary Roughness 101

I realize that many of you don't understand the rules of NFL football these days so I figure I would try to help educate you guys and gals this am.  Last night, the Eagles QB gave himself up on a play and received a flag for unnecessary roughness.  As you can see the defender pulled up and merely turned himself into a catching mitt of sorts...

Hope that clears it up.  Wentz is old enough to get that call.

Didn't see the game. But you're telling me, on  a national televised game where all the NFL, media, and fandom were watching...a white qb got that call?

 

he actually got 2 calls but I don't want to blow people's minds. He got tackled right after making a throw.  You know, like 50% of Cam's standard plays.

I really believe this is one of the factors that is causing people to lose interest in the NFL.  What is a catch?  What is a penalty?  When is it a fumble vs an incompletion?   The rules are so inconsistent from one play to the next.

I'm one of those who has become a lot less interested in the game.  The hits to Cam's head in week 1 and the lack of calls really upset me, and so many games seem to be affected by questionable penalties... it's really hard to not think there are biases towards / against some teams & players.  In my more rational moments I put it down to mere incompetence... but whether it's bias or incompetence, I want full-time professional refs and clearer standards.  Surely improvements can be made.

I will agree on that, that was not a penalty. Just like on Monday night, the player was not going for Cam head, but hit him in the head. But couldn't get that flag out quick enough for a taunting call. Something is up, and the fools in the NFL are letting it happen. It time for the media to do their job and not drop this, call it what it is, racism.

i saw this last night all over social media and I believe every football analyst were losing their mind on twitter last night all in favor of Cam.  Big tall athletic QB who can run both slide one hit in the head and one with a hand to the shoulder to try and prevent impact and the White QB gets the call... nah its not a race thing.

Is it the rules or the execution of enforcement of the rules?

The fact we have 97 yr old part time refs is an utter joke. 

We need full time younger refs that eat and breath the job.

      Bryce Young is a problem — what would you do if you were Dan Morgan?

      By CRA · Posted

      It’s going to get wild after this Sunday.  I would assume Dave has a really smart plan.   Sorta like the AZ plan last year.    After a big turnover heavy  bad game Bryce normally reels it in.  Bryce will have one of his standard 60% for 200 days and the Bryce defenders will use that as a “ I told you he is good” games.

      Bryce is a really smart kid and I'm sure he knows all the answers to the test but he hasn't been able to overcome his lack of physical tools and other DC's know this and play him accordingly. I think Bryce has good processing but when the correct read is the WR 30 to 40 yards down field and you have a defensive lineman coming at you what can he really do? He just doesn't have the arm to effectively and consistently hurt the defense and I think that's what's gonna do him in.  Pime example look at the INT versus Dallas last year when Thelien was wide open down the seam and Bryce threw it from a clean pocket and the ball was way short. Dc's watched that and knew that Bryce can't throw the ball deep.

      I'd give Bryce until the trade deadline to prove he's the answer and if he's not I'm dumping him for whatever pick we can get and I'm riding with Dalton the rest of the way.  2 and a half years is enough time to determine if he can be the QB going forward so for Bryce he needs to come out over the next couple of weeks and show that. The other players in the locker room don't wanna waste another year of their careers waiting to see if you'll ever figure it out.  If you took a poll of the players in the locker room I'm sure they'd rather lose with a respected veteran Dalton who at least gives them some creditability versus losing with Bryce who the entire media will say was let down by his supporting cast when in reality it's Bryce's physical limitations that are holding this team back.
