He's in the freaking running for MVP. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatdane21 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Oliver got screwed while low hit on Allen was allowed (Brady rule) these officials are totally inconsistent from week to week .apparently they also are allowed to hit Allen out of bounds and after sliding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pennstate10 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 On the same play that Tre got hurt, there was a blatant hold on 97 by the left tackle. Began as a headlock and turned into a bear hug. I understand 5hat there is holding on every play, but if you’re only calling blatant holds, that was one to call.

Again in a league where protecting the QB is important, it should be applied equally. 31 minutes ago, Mr. WEO said: No McD spends the majority of his game time these days screaming at the refs.

Southern_Bills Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I like a coach who expresses disdain on the field at the time. Take it to the point you almost get 15 yards against the coach. Refs usually do better when they know the coach will call them on it on national TV at the time of the call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo ill Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Most the "late hits" on qbs should require the ref to throw a pink flag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigduke6 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 im fine with less flags, im not fine with blatant no calls on dirty or dangerous plays, or plays that change the game. call it consistent for both teams, enforce rules that are designed to protect the players. that no call going late and low on Josh on a passing play is the kind of bush league crap that makes people question the NFL. Brady gets that call if somebody so much as passes gas within a five yard radius of him. consistency is all we ask. this season has been the worst when it comes to consistency.

BarleyNY Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 I’m not a fan of how protected QBs are, but by the rule book that should have been 15. Also I’m happy to see McDermott advocating for his QB. Might get a call sometime for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 How about when the guy head butted Josh and said something to him. If you are going to call taunting, wtf? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 If Allen wants the roughing calls then he needs to swallow his pride and act like the hits are hurting him. When he gets hit.......stay down for a minute.......get up with a limp.......act like his availability is in question if he takes another hit like that. Then the hankees will follow. I'm not advocating that.........but that's the only way a beast of a QB like Allen who intentionally puts his body on the line to make big plays is going to get them. The rules are in place to protect the vulnerable...........if you don't act like one of them you won't get the calls. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
78thealltimegreat Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Allen isn’t in the “protected” status like some others are and Coach McDermott isn’t a complainer who rails on the refs and works them during a game…McDermotts approach is going to have to change cause Allen takes some hits that would knock other QBs out for the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaninSarasota Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 8 hours ago, RalphWilson'sNewWar said: I’m not sure about that. in 2019 and 2020, Allen almost perfected getting “cheap” roughing the passer calls. He was masterful at, scrambling to his right, throwing the ball off-balance, and if a defender just put a hand on his shoulder pad, he was flinging himself to the ground and drawing the Roughing the Passer. Its not pretty to say… But Allen is sort of a Flopper. And a bad actor at that when he does it. it had me laughing when the Saints defender talked to Allen face-to-face and suddenly Allen SNAPPED his head back like he just got a brick to the face. 😂 Now…should some hits on him draw yellow? ABSOLUTELY. But again…some things working against Allen. 1.) He’s Big (like Cam Newton, Refs aren’t always bailing out the big ones.) 2.) He may have a little reputation as a Flopper. 3.) He has that “b*tc*ing” to the ref after every hit mentality that probably isn’t going over well. At this point…he’s not working the refs particularly smart or effective. is that really your interpretation - that Josh snapped his head back? ....really? it was clearly the Saints D-lineman who was barking at Josh then head-butted JA with his face-mask........looks like you are distorting this episode to somehow suit your narrative. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
