Re: Officiating Tonight
Correct, and the real time version is worse than the stills. The DB was so thoroughly beaten that he almost fell down. The only reason he's not on the ground is because he's supporting himself by holding onto Smith's hips. Thing is, with the stellar receivers we have, they made other catches while being pummeled, with no call. In none of them, would we have benefited by accepting the penalty. OTOH, it would have been nice to have the whistle to acknowledge the foul...That's textbook DPI..................I've seen that called quite a few times in various games, and it should have been called.............
