bullshite. McCray was for the play that injured Favre's ankle. Truly fanatics...



No... He wasn't you dumb shite. The only flag that was thrown the entire playoffs for unnecessary roughness was on McCray for hitting Favre on the reverse to Harvin.

It's not uncommon for a coach, especially a losing one, to send several plays for the league to review after a game. Eight is a lot. And the league, led by then-vice president of officiating Mike Pereira, did look into them. Pereira found only one of the hits to be a play that, in his opinion, should have been flagged: the high-low hit by Saints linemen Bobby McCray and Remi Ayodele late in the third quarter on a play Favre rushed, threw an interception and was hit after he released the ball.

That play, clearly, should have been flagged by referee Pete Morelli. The league admitted it a couple days later, and ended up fining McCray $20,000 for that play and another earlier in the game when he drove himself into Favre after a handoff. (A handoff, mind you; not a pass. How often have you seen unnecessary roughness called on a defensive player for hitting the quarterback after a handoff? I can't recall ever seeing that, aside from this play.)


Keep defending the dirty tactics if you want, but it's obvious to everyone else. Bottom line, you did what you needed to do to win the game.

That flag was thrown. But he was fined for that hit (where Favre was in the way) and the low hit on Favre in the third quarter.

But I'm pretty sure the rule that you can't hit a QB at or below the knee was approved after the 2005 season when Carson Palmer and a few other QBs got hurt. So I don't know if it would have been an illegal hit before that.
