It was a learning moment for the NFL, but the play was called correctly

If you want to complain I would think you would go with the ticky tack defensive holding call that gave the Broncos their second TD. Especially considering that the Panthers receivers were being hit (illegally) throughout the game and could not buy a flag.

I think he knew the penalty would only be a yard or so.

They're talking about changing the rules. Haven't done it yet.

I would have been fine with them tossing him from the game for that.

It's a man's game.

Did anyone get hurt?

Driving drunk isn't a big deal as long as no one gets hurt, either, apparently.

You have a callous disregard for safety.

You have a callous disregard for the Super Bowl Champions

Nope, that defense is elite and definitely won the Super Bowl.

I have a problem with actions that rely on luck to be safe

Facemasks win championships.

2/9/16 1:05pm

NFL's fault. Now that there is only 1 type of face mask penalty, no reason to

Really? They don't give credit for letting go?

El Jefe

The person that originally made it so there are 2 face mask penalties.

I've seen far worse.

Well yes, I've seen worse, too. Doesn't mean this wasn't really bad.

You didn't watch the game? They showed the replay a number of times.

He said he did it on purpose.

Do you believe that was the first time a penalty was "on purpose"?

Busiturtle

2/9/16 1:37pm

I'm guessing he did. Smart play.

Walter Bellhaven

Here's why you do it if you have to save a touchdown.

bluecheese

2/9/16 1:48pm

Not saying it's not smart, saying it's dangerous.

SandYFan

2/9/16 1:56pm

Agreed

keep them out of the endzone!
