I've been saying this to all the Cowboy fans in the office giving me shite because they're still butthurt. I'll concede the unnecessary roughness and take the face mask penalty if you would rather. Either way that's 15 yards.

Has there ever been such an uproar after a clearly correct penalty? It's Tuesday and they are still talking about it. Has anyone heard 1 ESPN talking head agree with the call? I'd love to know this. Are they all this stupid? After all the games where they saints were royally screwed over the years and I've waited for at least a mention of it to no avail, this is just ridiculous. I understand if some of them disagree with it, but they are acting appalled like it's the worst call ever, when it was obviously right. so...who has come out in agreement of the call?

They need to fine his arse. Make Bruschi and Ray Lewis pay for it. frick em all.

The NFL Head of Officials confirmed that the proper call was made.

quote:

"You can't make forcible contact to the head or the neck area, even if the contact starts below the neck and rises up," Blandino explained. "If there's force to that contact, it's a foul. Watch the initial contact, maybe around the shoulder, but it rides up into the neck area and brings the quarterback down with force.

"That's why the flag was thrown for unnecessary roughness."

Ray Lewis said last night he would pay half of Brooks' fine.


I bet he wouldn't be saying this if it had been J.J. Watt.

Of course Ray Lewis will advocate for being a dirty a-hole

This explains a lot about Tedy Bruschi's opinion of the penalty:
