Not a face mask in the NFL?

[Kevin Greene]

Well if you're not Tom Brady it's not.

they gave us an apology with that non PI call Godfrey did

I guess once your helmet is dislodged from your head, the defender can put his hand on the facemask of the helmet.

Edit: Hey, it looked like Gross was beating Cam up there as well.:D

[Wither]

They have to give the defenders some room for penalties when they encounter Cam.

Mike Pereira explained that once his helmet starts to become dislodged, defenders are allowed to grab the face mask. And since he is the former head of officiating, he should know the rules.

[Kevin Greene]

So it magically dislodged?

Also my issue.

Looks like Suh is setting precedent!

And the league will laugh in their face. The officials followed the rules.

Guys the helmet was dislodged before this happened.

Then the dude grabbed the face mask. I tried to explain this in the chat.

Pretty much. Cams helmet always comes loose because he never wears it tight and his chin strap is not very tight (probably so it doesn't affect his gum chewing). I'm not sure there has been a game this year where his helmet didn't come loose and almost come off without someone grabbing it.

[HeatCheck]

Yeah it came loose on the contact, the hit made it slide off. Then the defender grabbed the face mask.

[Wither]

Looked like the defender was going for his head to me, which is the issue I find, not the fact that the helmet became dislodged or the facemask was touched.

Gross pushed it off his head more than the Colt did.
