stosh64 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) Didn't Anderson get a $10,000 fine for INTENTIONALLY trying to take Allen's knees out? Yet Knox gets fined $28,000 for a very questionable call. The people running the NFL are a sad joke.

vincec Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 (edited) I said this when the rule changes were made, but some of these blocks in the video NEED to be legal to protect the QB. If an OL can't block a defensive lineman who has passed the QB and is now coming at him from his back (blindside) then something is wrong with the rule. Also, blocking a guy within 5 yards of the ball carrier seems different than doing it 15 yards away from the play like Benjamin did. My biggest issue with the Knox block is that the runner was down so the block was unnecessary, but if he was on his feet then the DB can totally make the tackle. However that has no impact on the rule, which is silly. Edited September 22, 2019 by vincec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
