What, no flag?
163 yards in penalties, the lion’s share of which were bullshit. There might have been more penalized yards on the Steelers than the Raiders had in total offense.
Re: James Harrison’s umpteenth roughing-the-passer penalty which wasn’t.
I am all for quarterback-safety. These guys hit and get hit hard, it’s dangerous—especially long-term—precautions should be taken. But when a several-time defensive player of the year, whose style of play hasn’t changed, is suddenly always in the wrong? Suddenly committing infractions that didn’t exist 5 weeks ago? Something is off.
Because if he were a dirty player (he’s not), the correct action to take would be to suspend, then expel him from the league, not fine him week after week after week. Yet, that’s exactly what you’re doing, Goddell. You decided to make Harrison an example in a classically overreaction sort of way. Stop it. If anything you’re worsening the chances useful steps will be taken (and taken seriously) to improve player safety.
Re: Richard Seymour clocking Roethlisberger after getting scored on. Jackass. 10+ years in the league and your excuse is: “I just turned around, and he just ran up on me quick. It was just natural reaction.” Yeah, what a chump for jogging up to his own offensive line to celebrate a TD. Give me a break.
