Rule Change No. 3: Unnecessary roughness has been expanded to include shots to a defenseless receiver's head.
The amendment states, a penalty will be called "If the initial force of the contact by a defender's helmet, forearm, or shoulder is to the head or neck area of a defenseless receiver who is catching or attempting to catch a pass."

It clearly states that it was not to the head or neck area. It was to the CHEST. Therefore, they were wrong. They sent a letter admitting to the fact they they made a mistake in their calling of the game. Its as simple as that. Maybe they didn't appologize for it. But they did admit to making a bad call.

I have made NO such remission. I still say the call was right. I still say the Teicher article is completely unclear as to whether the league now says there should have been a penalty.

I HAVE allowed that IF the League has backed off, it could ONLY BE because they've decided it wasn't the neck area. Be that as it may, it was close enough to force the ref to make a judgement call. A smarter play would not do that.

:spock::rolleyes: YOU are impossible. I can't argue with crazy people. I'm out...

The call was wrong and the NFL admitted it in their letter. If the call was right Page would be getting a fine. No fine no foul.

This is not correct. All Unnecessary Roughness penalties don't draw a fine - only flagrant ones. I posted the point a few posts up.

Orange is just trolling at this point.

Oh yeah, it was YOU.

I guess you just need me to validate your existence for some reason.

The call on the field was helmet to helmet. It was a BS call and that is why he is not getting a fine.

No, just your general inflammatory disposition. YOU are the only one who believe it was a good/correct call. YOU were proven wrong.

Is there supposed to be a "solution" in there some where? I missed it.

Notice after the play the Giants reciever getting up and clapping. He knew because it was an Eli Manning pass on a key drive the refs were going to give him the call. To be fair one of the Chiefs safety made a hit that could've been flagged. But unfortuately it was after the game was already out of reach.

Orange you should agree to disagree. You are one of the donk fans on here that is civil. Let it go it's over with.

Yes, it was a bad non-call on Carr with a forearm to the helmet. I was arguing with Orange because he is wrong. He was proven wrong. Its not just me and a few others saying he's wrong. Video proved it. I don't care if this call screwed the Chiefs. Good teams overcome penalties. I want the officials to make the correct call.

When you lost as many games as we have the last couple seasons it makes you pissed off enough to think the whole league is against the Chiefs (even though it's a silly notion). I still refuse to acknowledge the Tampa game from last year as a loss. That BS offensive P.I call on Tony that took away a first down that would have iced the game.
