I tried to watch frame by frame and it looks like the Patriot defender may have been blocked into Martin but the picture is so small and the quality is not great. It's tough to tell.

MPT Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 3 hours ago, Big Turk said: Likely would have been running into not roughing anyway and not a first down. Running into the kicker is when they contact the kicking leg or cause the kicker to land on top of them. Roughing the kicker is when they contact the plant leg or both legs on the ground, which he clearly did. 19 hours ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: Joquan Johnson throws the guy into Martin.

Rewatching and saw Jaquan Johnson blocked the defender and was turned sideways and lost the block. The defender proceeded to fall into Martin in his own hitting his plant leg. Johnson did not push the defender towards Martin in any way. Roughing the kicker for sure. Edited December 3, 2022 by davefan66 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know - I love the Prime Telecast. I love the pre and post game. Michaels and Herbstreet are fine. I love having the Prime Vision cast with stats and facts and the All-22 view. I love getting the game on my TV and then flipping to my I-Pad when I want to travel or head to bed. I think Prime is already significantly better than Sunday Night Football or MNF on ESPN - although I enjoy the Manning cast. Considering how this is their first season and they are offering much more than traditional channels - I am ecstatic with the games. Give me more and fire the SNF group and Aikman on Mondays. 3 minutes ago, Rochesterfan said: Edited December 3, 2022 by Rochesterfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the guy tripped over Johnson into the punter it’s not roughing. The player has to create the contact on his own. There’s absolutely no way you’re getting that call. Toss or no toss, Johnson touched him and the guy falls into the punter. Accident or on purpose, that call won’t happen.

Accident or on purpose, that call won’t happen. That play gets called almost every time. The defender's goal in that situation is to get through the block and try to block the punt. The only thing keeping them from constantly diving at punters' legs is this rule and it's enforced liberally because it's so easy to injure a punter doing that, which ended up happening to Martin. The Patriots got called for running into the kicker last week, in fact, despite barely touching the punter's kicking foot. The play we're talking about this week is described verbatim in the rule as being the more serious infraction and subject to a personal foul. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
