Without question the sissiest call over the last decade of pussifying football. I seriously fear what football will look like when I'm 80.

They can fix this by including all 15 yard penalties in instant replay. IR on that one would have shown that the Texans rusher was pushed down by the Jaguar lineman. Instead of 3rd and 30 from the 8 it is 1st and 10 from the 23 and kept that drive alive which allowed them to flip field on the Texans (Texans just took over on their own 7). Huge mistake by the zebras.

The refs have just completely lost sight of what these rules are designed for. That was literally just a gang tackle. I have no idea what these guys are supposed to do. I guess the should levitate sideways so only chests touch and no one gets hurt

Ridiculous...

Another one is the 'landing with full body weight' call that was called on the Saints.

(Archie) Manning, Montana, Bradshaw, Elway, Marino, even Favre (during his early years), etc... must be laughing at these idiotic calls. You know how many times they were 'roughed when sacked' or 'landed on with full body weight'.

What a joke.

They called it on the Raiders last week...no one was crying then. Same thing, just a sack...no pile driving, to helmet twisting...you can't throw a QB down anymore I guess?
