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.

Oh, I have no doubt. With the amount of money on the line, to think otherwise would be naive imho.

Possible, but what he was thinking doesn't really matter.

What he did should not have been penalized.

Point being that there was no misunderstanding of the rules in his case, the helmet was coming off regardless. Unfortunately, it was done in an area with risk of drawing a flag and that's what happened.

people reviewing this footage like he's dragging his toe for a catch coming off the field. like, what? the spirit of the rule doesn't technically mean on the LITERAL field, he popped his helmet off within like 3 seconds of catching that ball. it may be a dumb rule, I don't know, but it's a rule. like lol at people saying HE GOT OUT OF THE BACK OF THE ENDZONE like we need a rules analyst on this contested catch. DJ didn't argue. he knew what he did.
