That the NFL never addressed that to my knowledge is absurd. Especially considering that was the season that blows to the head of a QB became a primary focal point. Then they let the Broncos great Cam Newton's head like a piñata in SB50 without a flag in sight. And just for good measure, again in week one the following season.

Still makes my stomach turn how blatant it was.  They wanted to tell him "You think you're having fun and trying to run this league? Well, that ain't happening" And then they turn around crying about the slightest bit of contact on their treasured league faces.  They didn't want Cam the face of the league and let him get battered and injured into basically retirement.

OMG, another phantom roughing flag. This one bringing back a pick six.

I won't cry conspiracy, but it was pretty clear the league didn't like Cam and didn't want him parading around with a Lombardi.

Amazon must be losing viewers. They're throwing flags like crazy trying to drag Seattle back into this game.

They just changed the call of a play 4 times in about 20 seconds.

Cool thing about streaming is you can watch your viewership numbers in real time.

Bosa is destroying Cross.

 

Burns got dominated by him.

[LinvilleGorge]

As soon as the announcers start talking up Cross, Bosa just runs right through him for a sack.

Dude, you are becoming a just a pure poo poster.

Back to the catch, no catch, catch call--If the refs can't make up their mind on a call, then it should obviously just go straight to booth.  They should have the option to call a miss on their end and defer to an immediate booth confirmation. I just don't understand why they choose to make it so prone to human error and forcing more stoppage, team challenges, etc.

Shannahan gonna get CMC hurt with this kind of volume.

Pretty bad when the NFL is just an entertainment company and they keep trotting this crap out. Why not just let the refs throw a guy in a figure 4 or drop an elbow every now and then. It'd be about as legit as what we're seeing now.

Congrats to CMC for making the playoffs for the first time since his rookie season. The wonders of escaping a mediocre organization and going to an offensive minded HC.

Intentional grounding is the opposite of roughing the passer.  It basically takes a supreme court case to even consider it.
