re: Should Jameis Winston have been ejected?

This is a tough one for me. The intent of the rule is to keep players from getting physical with referees over calls and such. Jameis was simply trying to get to the other side of the ref. When a player runs into a ref during a play, it is obviously not a penalty. I think this move by Jameis falls somewhere in between pushing a ref after a play and running into a ref during a play.

The issue is refs get in the way all the fricking time. If a player shoved a ref out of the way everytime they were sitting down the ball/right there in the play before the ball is snapped it'd be a free for all.
Should've been an ejection.

A player cannot intentionally push an official for any reason. The official is standing over the ball prior to the snap. Officials are part of the field during the play, then a player can run into one on accident, but a player cannot intentionally push an official out of the way like that.
