What if the refs called a penalty on Sorensen

[chiefzilla1501]

OK, this really bothers me. Browns fans are arguing that this was a game changing call and that one called back TD was the difference in a 5 point win. OK, fair point. Not calling helmet to helmet may have been a miss.

The biggest game changer as we all know wasn't the fumble, it was mahomes getting injured. Mahomes was throttling the browns and probably would have kept doing it. Would mahomes have still gotten a concussion if the browns scored? I mean, cmon.... Probably not. Here's a more likely scenario. If browns score 7, chiefs get the ball back and score 3.chiefs go into halftime 19 - 10. Browns down 9 (instead of 16) have to claw from behind

Unless people think the browns run the same exact plays in that scenario, baker throws that same exact pick, then the Chiefs run the same exact plays with the same exact outcome its very unlikely mahomes gets knocked out of that series.

That's something that rarely is discussed. The NFL rule clearly states "if a player lower his head to initiate contact with an opponent." It is a 2-way rule but nobody is ever whining when the offensive player commits the foul.

Today I looked in the mirror and said what if I had a Ron Jeremy schlong. Then I looked down, realized I didn't and moved on.

All I know is Tori Black would be goal #1 if I did.

Kareem Hunt got a 15-yard penalty for it in 2017.

It's definitely a rule, they just always call it on the defense because the NFL wants scoring.

Browns fans complaining over something like that are pathetic.

Yep.

They were watching the ball, the runner, the goal line, and the pylon. They missed the helmets, it happens.

Was that pre-woman kicking or post woman kicking?

Doesn't make a difference about the penalty but I need to know rather to cheer or boo that decision.

Also wasn't one of our lineman pulled down by his jersey twice on that same play, they call that and it is a wash.

The being pulled down twice will be brushed off as, "happens every play"...

[tyecopeland]

Don't know if it has been mentioned elsewhere but he did not get fined for the hit.

Cool.

Are Browns fans still whining?

He's diving at a guy that is diving for the end zone and you can even see DDs head go left as he's aiming with his shoulder. He's not trying to hit him helmet to Helmet. He's trying to get his head between the ball carrier and the end zone. There helmets just happen to collide. What would you have expected him to do instead?

if bills score at end of 1st half they almost assuredly aren't going for it on 4th down in their own territory in the 3rd quarter, which led to a score they would not have had if penalty called on sorenson

[Rasputin]

We still would have won because Mahomes.


If they called that then the other aspects of the game like Mahomes not getting hurt we still would have won the game because Mahomes.

[Rasputin]

That would have been a legal hit back in the day before they played flag football like they do today.

[GloryDayz]

Again, call me when the NFL cares enough about player safety to flag RBs for leading with the crown of their helmet.
