Good hit, text book tackle. Just because someone receives a correct but solid hit and gets shaken up doesn't mean the hit was illegal. Jeez, it is football isn't it? Stupid Ref, and stupid announcer

@Aphasia17 nonsense.

@TubbyToadInc fag.

It's like the absolute boneheaded call on the Colt's Dan Orlovsky today..... that literally played a direct role in deciding the game.
Or the Andre Carter tackle on Rex Grossman.... where Rex was 'running away' and Carter wrapped his arm around his legs (not even his knees)... and they called roughing.
These calls defy common sense. literally.

Well he certainly did not hit him late. And... driving him to the ground? He hit him with a hard force initially (which btw is not illegal). There was nothing extra added on it to 'illegaly drive him to the ground.' I fail to see that extra 'oomph' to make the call. Is he supposed to slam on the emergency brakes or hit reverse?
U can blame good ol' Goodell and Greg Aiello for the NFL sisy league it's turned to. I didnt hear much complaints back in the old days. But I sure here alot now!

@Meni69 its becoming the nba

"driving the quarterback to the ground" wtf was he suppose to do just give him a hug

This is a perfect hit- right on time and no where near the qb's head or knees and somehow it is a penalty. The NFL is a garbage league now. Goodell ruined it. Offensive pass interference is legal but defenders can't look at a receiver. Quarterbacks can not be hit. You either have one of the half dozen elite qbs in the league or you are completely irrelevant.

you guys didn't know? you're not allowed to be mean to the other team
