I don't know about yall, but I'm really getting tired of all these "roughing the passer" calls. I understand you have to protect them, because they are basically defensless. But if I'm not mistaken, I believe you can have 2 steps and obviously no helmet to helmet contact. A very critical call in the UGA/BAMA game kinda set the tone for the --- whoppin we recieved in the first half between the hedges this past weekend. Now, I know that one call has nothing to do with the outcome of the game, I just think it the contact that was made was undoubtably not worthy of the penalty served. Now, if the call had not reversed a fumble recovery, I'll admit it probably wouldn't have stung so much. As a defensive lineman/linebacker, you are told to get your hands up every play, Its almost a cardinal rule. The defender did not "slap", "grab" of throw the QB to the ground with his hands on the facemask. This is not the first call like this I have seen this year. (And yes I am a Dawg fan, so trust me, I have seen a alot of them LOL) I just wanted to hear some feedback from other football fans, and maybe I'm just missing something.
