The Alexander penalty play

It was 2nd and 7, Wilson got sacked for a 13 yd loss. Woulda been 3rd and 20. 15 yd dead ball penalty should make it 3rd and 5, but they said it was 1st and 10. Unsportsmanlike isn't an automatic 1st down, as far as I can find.

Does it go from the conclusion of the play or the previous spot?

The refs screwed up a penalty call in the 49ers GB game when Matthews tackled Kaepernick out of bounds. There was two off setting penalties and they let the Niners re play the down when really it should have been fourth down. The Niners scored a touchdown on the extra down they were given.

The refs weren't exactly great with spotting the ball today IMO. That 4th and 2 really should have been 4th and 1. This isn't me blaming the refs, I'm just saying.

    • Oh, no doubt those WRs have missed a lot this season. That's why I mentioned earlier that injuries have made things hard for the Texans the same way that they made it hard for Panthers last season. Addressing Nico: his head coaches were David Culley and Lovie Smith for those first two years... Who in the world is expecting a rookie WR under Culley or a second year WR under Lovie to light it up with THE Davis Mills? 😛 I'd say that that was a mutually beneficial situation for CJ and Nico rather than CJ being the only reason Nico got an extension as is occasionally implied here. re: stats - Was curious to how the numbers looked when comparing starts and got the following per start (removed the ones from Bryce's games that he came in as a backup to stay consistent with starts) Player Year Hrry Hits Prss Sacks CJ Stroud 2023 3.1 2.5 8.2 2.5 CJ Stroud 2024 4.1 3.2 10.5 3.3 Bryce Young 2023 2.4 3.1 9.4 3.9 Bryce Young 2024 3.4 3.6 9.3 2.3 Stroud has been hurried more in both seasons, but those seem to convert to hits a lot less often than with Bryce. That suggests to me that it isn't a matter of Bryce being taken down easily as much as it is him still trying to make a play happen vs. getting rid of it. This season, Stroud is being hit a little more often than 2023 Bryce but 2024 Bryce is still taking more shots. I think the big difference that we're seeing this season is that CJ is being pressured and hurried even more like you said, but Bryce is taking sacks as often as CJ was last season. Biiig difference for both guys. Another big difference (imo) is that the Texans nearly fielded a top 10 defense vs. Carolina's bottom 5 last season. Now, Carolina is dead last at #32 while the Texans' defense dropped into the bottom 10. That's going to force more bad situational football than good for the offense (as we've seen here in Carolina).
    • No, people talk about him here like he’s a contributor as an UDFA rookie. Rightly so. 
    • I think his wrist injury is impacting his play. He ability to catch the ball declined thru the season from what I recall, tho maybe I'm wrong. Like every rookie he deserves a second year. And this hasn't even been a BAD year for a rookie receiver, just a disappointment for what we hoped he'd be (and tbh for what he was midway thru the year). We've had plenty of guys basically be unable to get on the field at all. I am concerned about our ability to develop receivers, though. We shall see how that goes...
