Travis Kelce on Josh Allen taunting penalty: "So F---- whack"

[beebe]

Says it was one of the weakest taunting calls he's ever seen. 

 

Linked to clip: 1:33:34 mark.

I mean I thought it was hilarious but it was the definition of taunting. He pointed at the guy haha. 

[nedboy7]

No worries.  We are trading him.

So did Joe Burroughs on one of his runs for a first down, but no penalty there…

[GoBills808]

its def always a penalty, you got to keep your head

 

but in his defense im pretty sure he was reacting to the hit he took late and low from Hubbard

At least it might show a little self awareness, I’m sure Kelce knows that he and Mahomes do such things quite frequently. I mentioned that fact when Allen was flagged. 

[MJS]

I think they make a good point that there are far worse things you can do, including screaming in their face and calling them all manner of foul names, but simply pointing is called every time.

 

They just need to do away with taunting. They can still call really bad stuff under unsportsmanlike conduct. They don't need a separate taunting stuff for these silly things.

 

Allen was basically saying "Ha! Got you." The defender would probably agree.

[Over 29 years of fanhood]

It’s stupid that it’s a penalty but it’s a penalty.. boring 

[Ya Digg?]

So why does Tyreek never get called for his peace sign he constantly flashes?

Nah fuq him…

[ChrisWatson#21]

He is friends with Josh so of course he is going to think it was wack.  What makes me angry though is where was the taunting flag in the divisional vs KC when Tyreek gave the deuces to Poyer & co when running by them?  No consistency with these calls.  They call whatever they want whenever they feel like it.

When they called it, I thought it would take away the TD, but they didn’t and in the end it only cost us about 7 yards, not a big deal.

Pretty sure that was a blown call as far as enforcing it. He wasn't in the end zone yet. The play was still live. I think they realized they were going to have to get a TD reversed based on the loose whistle and panicked.

used to despise T Kelce and now i kind of like him

[Airseven]

The point was cringy.

[Special K]

Not as bad a penalty as the intentional grounding penalty....that one cost the Bills a chance at 3 points.

This.  To the letter of the rule it was a penalty.  Just like that throw they called intentional grounding when really the receiver just cut off his route.  There are far worse things like the facemask not called or the sliding tripping tackle not called.  Or in another game the guy taking his helmet off and hitting someone with it not called.  This taunting rule is just stupid.  Even stupider Josh could have gotten ejected for another similar act.  The NFL rules just don't make sense.  Much like some of their fines don't make sense.

What kills me is that when "finger pointing" is called, it's generally when it's done after the play...not while the play is still going.

[nedboy7]

What about the slide tackle or the face mask or the BS RTP?  Not game changing of course. You have to play thru crooked officiating.

I'm with you here. He's actually enjoyable and fun on this show. Can't wait for the Kelce-Cast in a few years when the Mannings get tired of hosting. These 2 could slip right in.

The one that pissed me 😡 off was right before, blatant tripping that hurt both players involved and would have stopped the clock and put us well within field goal range

[GoBills808]

in case anyone was wondering what im talking about re:hubbard hit and why Allen likely reacted like that

 

this is him going for Allen's knees about 4seconds after he released the pass to Diggs

Not as cringy as claiming to hold a white belt in jujitsu is the answer to protecting a soft melon.

[stevestojan]

I love Josh to a level that makes my wife uncomfortable and even I can say that was 100% a taunting penalty.

Its not always a penalty.  Tyreek Hill does it constantly and its never called.

Also Taylor Britt had a lotta mouth going on towards Bills players after his INT, but no flags thrown his way.

 

I've actually read Bills haters complain that not only was taunting the right call but that the TD shouldn't have counted because the act happened before Josh crossed the goal line and it should've been assessed from where the penalty took place. Funny stuff🤣

I'm pretty sure Allen is just dabbing on this play.  Open your eyes people

The worst was the roughing passer.

 

By rules definition awful.

By judging intent, even worse, my golly.

By result, flipped momentum of game instantly.

 

Not saying we win, we likely don't, but it was a momentum and morale killer. Crazy thing is NFL killed itself. Game looked like it might be a shootout, and they helped pop the balloon

[QB Bills]

Pretty sure that the reason this is a penalty and calling an opponent a name usually isn't is because of how it translates visually to the viewer at home or in person.

[Comebackkid]

Certain rules for manipulation of the game.

This randomly popped up on my youtube and couldn't help but laugh and post.
