Can only assume it had something to do with landing with all his weight on the quarterback. What’s really sad is the turnover happened before the roughing the passer happened.

How the nfl people think these 300lb people are just supposed to stop instantly when they are running 5.2 40’s is stupid.

He actually even did a good job of lessening his weight on him with his left hand. I really don’t know what he’s supposed to do there. Might be the first person to ever get called for roughing the passer while possessing the ball.
 

The NFL has no incentive to get the calls “right”. People are gonna talk about the roughing calls all week until the Thursday night game and then the whole thing repeats itself.

He needs to vanish into thin air as soon as he touches him. The problem is the turnover happened to the roughing the passer so at least the ball should have gone to the chiefs and then penalize them 15 yards.

I agree it is a terrible call and led to 3 points which may be big in this game.
 

Daniel Carlson up to 38 straight FG’s made, including 47,50,53 yarders today. Just can’t make it up.

Never would have done that here with Zim as the head coach. I will agree that Spielman needed to tell Zim to shove it when he wanted Carlson cut after like 3 games.

I honestly get a good chuckle out of this situation, as it’s just the most perfect MN sports thing to happen.
 

Anyone watching the chiefs game. 24-23, chiefs.

Chiefs miss a field goal, and it's defensive holding on the raiders. Gawd, was that weak. First down Chiefs and they get the touchdown.

Yeah, that was bad. Maybe a make up call for the bad roughing the passer penalty earlier.
 



the NFL refs givith and the NFL refs takith awayith.

Run the play and wait 5 seconds to see if what you just saw really happened or if there was a flag on the play and it was all you imagination.
 

They need to find ways to get the ball more to this guy.
