I enjoy the celebrations for big stops and impact turnovers like Sam’s pick last night, but Perkins standing over dudes and Womack pushing down KJ Jefferson after his sack are unnecessary when you later go on to get walked down the field drive after drive..

To be clear, athletes like we have need to play loose but you have to earn the right to talk shite IMO

I agree, but the players don’t think like that.

I’m glad they are playing with a fire in their belly. They have passion for the game and those are the ones who tend to want to get better :)

Perkins has got to stop standing over guys and talking down on them. I can’t believe he hasn’t been flagged for taunting yet.

They will without a doubt throw that flag in a critical moment during the Bama game.

Maason smith bowed up to the Arkansas sideline after making a tackle that resulted in a 12 yard gain and a first down. Talk about not understanding the situation.

The refs have been very kind to Perk. I'd be calling for a flag if the role was reversed.

I’m actually fine with these. I do hate when guys get up and flex because they made a hit but the receiver or running back just gained 14 yards and a first down.

I’m not saying the penalty was valid or I agree with it at all, but continuing to do stuff like that will stick in refs minds and make them more likely to flag him like on the bang bang play he made on 3rd & 18.

Lol! Saw that and actually said how ridiculous it looked.

Smith has ALOT of work to do.

I hope the refs will continue to share your loose definition of what taunting is bc I love watching the kid play but it is 100% taunting the 2nd, 3rd and 4th times he does it by most ref standards

Yep they’ll celebrate 2 good plays on 1st and 2nd down, have a 3rd&15, and then give up that 3rd&15. Rinse and repeat. The talent just isn’t there in coverage because they consistently get beat in 3rd&long situations.

Regarding Smith, yes that was ridiculous. But I guess when you have made your first tackle of the year....

I’m not saying it’s “smart” by any means. I’m just saying I understand when they get excited like that after a big play. Obviously if they start getting called for that stuff then that changes things.
