    You're just wrong.

     

    e.  A passer who is standing still or fading backward after the ball has left his hand is obviously out of the play and must not be unnecessarily contacted by an opponent through the end of the down or until the passer becomes a blocker, or a runner, or, in the event of a change of possession during the down, until he assumes a distinctly defensive position. However, at any time after the change of possession, it is a foul if:
     

    1.  an opponent forcibly hits the quarterback’s head or neck area with his helmet, facemask, forearm, or shoulder

    2.  if an opponent lowers his head and makes forcible contact with any part of his helmet against any part of the passer’s body. This provision does not prohibit incidental contact by the mask or the helmet in the course of a conventional block.

     

    I stand corrected. However, as I said, people get blown up on blocks all the time. IMO this is a BS rule if it's enforced as much. If the QB is attempting to go after the ball carrier, he should be treated as any defender.

    Not to mention Goff getting blown up helmet-to-helmet when he tried to make a play during the pick-six.

     

    On another note, I happen to agree with those who said the league wants the Chiefs in the AFCCG but not necessarily any farther.  Everyone watches the SB no matter what, and Josh/Lamar in search of a first Lombardi will be a fine storyline.  But nobody gives a ***** about the Texans.  There's a reason they always get the 3:30 Saturday game.  So I'm not sure we will see quite as much blatant favoritism next week as we saw yesterday.

     

     

    Goff was a defender when he got hit. QB protections don't apply.

    Are you ready for me to blow your mind....? The color of the ravens jersey is going to be a bigger factor than the weather....

     

    When we played the ravens in week 4 they wore their black jerseys.  This week they will be wearing their white jerseys . 

     

    You may be asking why would that matter?

     

    Well.. Lamar and Henry are black. When lamar cradles the brown ball into his arm on read option plays it's a lot more difficult to tell whether he pulled the ball back or gave it to Henry when the ball blends into their all black jerseys. 

     

     And thats the end of my Ted Talk.

     

    I believe there was a coach that brought the color thing up before in respect to making it more difficult to see the exchange. Don't remember who though.

    Snow would not be good for us due to nobody having footing and Henry being a downhill bruiser with straight line speed

     

    I'll take wind and cold all day with Josh at QB

    Lamars running ability depends on quick cuts and juke moves. The snow would force him to be a passer. Keying in Henry without Lamar's running threat is a much easier task. Plus Lamar hates the cold. Wait until you see how bundled up he will be.
