re: RG3 "I want defenders to hit me late"

quote:

---

Receivers don't physically exaggerate and hit the ground the way other athletes do upon contact, but the amount of whining they do after just a little bit of contact (or none at all) is soccer-caliber already.

This. They mimic throwing a flag before they've even hit the ground. Hell, I've seen some do it before the BALL even hit the ground. QB's who do this after any hit on them annoy me also.

Only thing worse than that, is refs who make no call, a receiver complains, then a flag is thrown 5-8 seconds afterwards.
