Brand J Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) This just in from the Tuesday Owner’s Meeting: League will not back out of “protecting the QB.” Quote “Everyone knows if your quarterback is not healthy, you don’t have a chance to win,” said Vincent, a former defensive back. “We’re not changing the philosophy around that call.” -Troy Vincent NFL Executive VP Football Operations I like what Shannon had to say about this. It won’t change until Jerry Jones and the Cowboys get screwed by a (non) RTP call in the playoffs. Article in The Athletic *Also, no one is asking them to back off protecting the QBs, the fans just want RTP to actually be RTP and not routine tackles. It’s a huge penalty that affects the outcome of games. Edited October 18, 2022 by JayBaller10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott7975 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Im all for protecting the QB. Nobody wants to see the most important star of the game go out. Some of these RTPs are just out of control and not RTP at all. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manther Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Josh gets hit late a lot and does not get the calls for Roughing the Passer. He is a top 3 QB in the NFL (I think the best), why is he getting knocked to the ground late often when he is inside the pocket? And, the tripping call missed on Jones was silliness. It is infuriating not as much for the non calls, but, the wear and tear and potential injuries. Why do the Ref's not protect JA17? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7975 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Where are the men in black from our playoff game that they decided intent on a rule when the NFL doesnt allow intent in the equation? First time I seen them was that game on that play and that was also the last time I seen them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucketList Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Brady may not be the beneficiary of many RTP calls, but he has been the beneficiary of many defensive holding, illegal contact and defensive pass interference calls throughout the majority of his career. Most of them occur when his team is driving to win the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 The penalty as it stands isn't bad, it's how bad the refs are at calling it that needs to be improved. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDubya76 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Vincent is an idiot. Always has been. You can’t teach common sense and you can’t fix stupid. Fact of the matter is they need to decide what the threshold is for roughing and call it consistently. Personally, I would love to see them do anything consistently, just me. Right now almost anything would be better than suffering through these subjective interpretations and arbitrary applications. That RTP call last night when “Let’s Ride” was tackled around the waist was egregious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rc2catch Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 The quicker fans can stop blaming non calls and bad calls on every single game and accept it’s a flawed system the easier things will be. They clearly need some tweaks and maybe adding an extra challenge or two for coaches during the game. Making more plays reviewable would help such as roughing the passer. The only two calls I have seen actually determine the games were of course the Brady call, and the Chris Jones call on Matt Ryan for saying bad words. I can handle an extra 15 minutes a game to add a couple extra challenges if it helps sort this mess. Officiating is bad in every sport, there is no perfect science to it and everyone fans included have a bias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take it out on Tua and the Dolphins, not the rest of the league and the fans. I’m all for looking after the QB, (especially OURS!), but there need to be limits to these horrible calls. It will run people off if it keeps going this way. How about we at least have real grass in EVERY STADIUM POSSIBLE. I’m seriously wondering, what percentage of concussions come from head contact with the turf? Sure, there are other possibilities, but it’s usually head on turf it seems. Grow some grass! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand J Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 I suppose it is difficult to legislate intent, hence why the NFL doesn’t do it (men in black to overrule calls notwithstanding), but any major penalty, which is the 15+ yard variety, needs to be adjudicated by a 3rd party. It’s tough when you have someone like Sterratore sitting at home saying “that should not be a penalty,” which echoes the thoughts of everyone else with common sense. Like I said, I hope it happens to Jerry’s Cowboys, preferably against the Eagles in the playoffs, which sends Dallas home. I guarantee we’ll be looking at change after that.

John from Riverside Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I’d like to see them in forcing the in the grasp rule Which they currently do not do this would protect QBs and it would also prevent QBs from using the fact that the defender Hass to slow down so they don’t draw penalty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
