DieHard 2,061 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 I know the rule and all, but have we seen a RB called for leading with the helmet? Just curious because, don’t remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious because, don’t remember it. I saw it called, but can't remember the game. The announcers were saying how difficult it would be for RB's because that's the way they've been taught since they were young. I think the refs just were not calling it in the Chiefs/Broncos game. I watched the game again and saw a Broncos RB do the same thing to a Chiefs defender, I believe it was Fuller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dksww 484 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 When the Chiefs got screwed in the playoffs the past 2 years we were all told you can't blame it on the refs. The moment a call goes the Chiefs way the same people lose their mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're fishing with a penalty that has barely been called. If you read the original post, I stated I did not have an opinion one way or the other. And I did not write the article.

NO doubt they have been waiting for some calls to go their way. We also hot hosed pretty bad on some ticky tack holding calls. I also think the chiefs had 9 penalties compared to the donkeys 2 so I don't feel bad if the refs missed on against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer 8,694 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 seems last night there was a similar run by a Pats RB who initiated the blow leading with the helmet and it was not called... good . Also an Indy D Line man just grazed Brady's helmet with his hand and got called for " roughing the passer". This pussifaction of the NFL has gone too far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really should just put flags on the QB's. That way there's no questioning when the QB is in danger because this shit has really gotten out of control...

robgar 1,046 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 This is a fact. Man was in a discussion with my wife, about what I consider to be one of the greatest athletes of all time.. Jim Thorpe.. I wonder what he would think of todays game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhitter 1,424 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 We all watch enough football to know enforcement of certain penalties is subjective. Kelce has gotten called for offensive pass interference twice this year. The one in Pittsburgh was a slight hand check as he turned back to the ball. Have seen it done a hundred times by receivers. Maybe it gets called 4 or 5 times out of 100. Crabtree did it in the Oakland game just about every time he caught the freakin' ball. It was called one time when it was so blatant the refs couldn't swallow it. Holding in the trenches happens every single play. Arm barring is fairly common. Corners grabbing the jerseys of the receivers they are covering.They all do not get called. I like to think over the course of a season that most teams that got robbed on one call got the ledger evened by another call somewhere along the line.
