DJ Moore should not have been penalized for helmet removal

[KillerKat]

Yeah this is what I have been saying ever since it happened. It should not have been called. I know a few teams the refs wouldnt call this against. Its sad that ref corruption has taken over games.

I would argue NBA is worse. 

I might agree, but the thing with the NBA is that they intentionally and willfully don't follow their own rules, and they aren't shy about it.  In the NFL they are genuinely trying.  These bad calls are legitimately stupid.

The NFL would remore 1/4 of bad penalties by getting rid of the hochuli family.

That’s not a penalty, coming onto the field without a helmet isn’t mentioned in the rule book 

Oh okay, thanks

The NFL has WAY too many f'n rules to begin with. Things are micromanaged into oblivion, and even then, they're often not even enforced, or if they are - improperly or utterly arbitrarily.

Even before this, I can hardly watch a game because of penalties on every play and on stuff that had nothing to do with the play itself. I have noticed that SEC games are better to watch. They really just let the games play out. VERY pissed!

I was telling my friends this...  I could've swore I've been seeing guys take their helmets off behind the back of the endzone for years now without penalty.  Remember, especially during the lockdown when the stadiums were empty and they first put in those cameras back there?  Guys were doing it all of the time...  but then I convinced myself I must've not been remembering it right.  But I was so sure of it, I had even thought this wasn't a rule anymore....

Oh well....  anyway, surprise!  The NFL and officials screw us when it matters most and cause us to lose a game!

I keep saying it, but if we play games close enough that we need the refs to call it fair, we're going to be severely disappointed, because they never will.  We are the most hated team in the league by officials.  Period.

I wish this could have been challenged we would have probably won

Did Cam get flagged last year when he took his helmet off against Arizona? I can't remember. 

He did

[ncsfinest21]

Its not about taking off the helmet, its about when. Only get penalized after a TD for taking off helmet. Thats what Im gathering but Im pretty sure you have to be the player that scored and the whole team can take off their helmets but not the player that scored. Its rather dumb imo. I dont see no problem unless its taunting or directly effecting a player on the opposite team.

There's a reason for this................................Vegas. All those ticky tac rules are in place so the refs can sway a game into a certain direction to cover the spread. Pay attention next time to the vegas lines for a game, then watch how the refs ref it. The spread for our last game was 4 in favor of Falcons...................we lost by 3. There's a reason that a ticky tac 5 yard hold defensive call can result in a new fresh set of downs.
