Question Regarding Rules

This isn't necessarily a Panther's related question but it very well could be considering Cam has gone for tackles on interceptions before. I'm currently watching the Green Bay vs. Giants game and a penalty call has me confused. Rogers threw an interception and then went for a tackle  but was blocked to the ground by a Giants player. The refs threw a flag on this and called it an unsportsmanlike like penalty for the hit on the QB. I thought that if the QB threw an interception and then subsequently went for a tackle it was fine to block them or am I just remembering the rule incorrectly. What do you guys think on this penalty?

The way I view it is that since he went for the tackle then a flag shouldn't have been thrown but had he not have made an attempt then a flag could since he would be "protecting himself by removing himself from the play" but oh well. The refs in general have been terrible, even more so than usual, this season in the majority of the games.

That was how I thought it went. Stay away, and we will protect you. Get in the way, your are on your own.

 

I didn't see the play, but, was the block excessive? Did he hit him above the shoulders? Aw hellz, those QBs are all wusses. Except for ours  that is.

Not excessive from what I could tell. I can't find a video of it so if anybody finds one or has it can post it to have a reference then I'd appreciate it. If I recall it correctly it looked like he blocked Rodgers legally and made him stumble slightly then bumped him again to knock him down. It looked like a legit and legal block from what I could tell but they only replayed it once.

That is one of those things that frosts my butt. The rules are different from player to player, and team to team. The refs are an issue that truly does need to be addressed.

Collinsworth said that since the QB was going towards the play, he was fair game. Should not have been called.

 

There you go. Rogers gets that call, Brady gets that call, (Although Brady probably would never get involved in a tackle.) but does every QB get that call? Probably not?

      I do not want nor have the energy to start a sanders vs BY topic..... Heres where Im at, what else is Titans Levi's or colts Arich going give in a trade...... Im no sanders fan, but it wouldn't bug me if caralas/Brandt/tepper/who____ wanted to go another route.....yes its been a QB whirlwind since ...to long.... still Im not sold on the skill and talent of one BY.   I think this is first year in many in which Carolina with have the same HC, QB, and GM. Its been a mess...

      No one should be the least bit surprised by this organization doing powerfully stupid stuff. You don't accidentally achieve the worst record in the NFL since 2018, it takes consistently awful decisions to pull that off. And then the cherry on top of the dog poo sundae is that every year when we're closing in on a top 5 pick, here comes a couple of meaningless moral victories to fug that up. I'd be curious what percentage of our wins in the Tepper era have come when we're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

      I think remember doing mock Sims for Carolina as many others, I don't think any of picked RBs in any rounds.... I honestly had the same "my team let me down" feels with the BY pick........just WHY all the holes and one of the spots were they have depth AND the RB market is at the lowest point in NFL history..... Just a    Per normal the huddle was for all for Zach Frazier, not me I wanted Marshawn Kneeland. Plus I wanted to REMAIN AT whatever LA pick and NOT TRADE UP FOR A ACL injuried RB. My friend was right, Dan did draft like he was still playing in his era..... ugh, Brandt and Dan cannot have that same problem this year......its beginning year 2 of a full 3 year rebuild..... for fugs sake, please find some talent and depth in later rounds....
