Terrible ruffing the passer penalty in the Atlanta - Tampa game.

Just saw that replay, and all I can say is "Welcome to the AFC East for the past 20 years, everyone!"

In all seriousness, people complain about guys like Gretzky and Lebron getting a different rulebook, but it’s obvious that the officials assist Brady game-in and game-out. That penalty was an absolute farce and there is no chance they call that if it involves any other QB.
 
I feel like I've seen worse go uncalled. Falcons got the short end.

Geez John Harbaugh again living and dying by the 4th down

Between the VT-Pitt game over the weekend, the call in the Atlanta game yesterday and the call tonight, I have no f***ing idea what Roughing the Passer is anymore. Just shit calls all over the place with zero consistency.

Yeah, a roundtable on ESPN this morning had all the guys saying the same thing. "You sack the guy and you get up looking for a flag."

Also, did someone in the NFL's scheduling office troll everyone by having the Chiefs play last night?

Against the Raiders, no less. What, no team out there called the Imperialists or the Colonialists?

At this point they may as well just put flags on the QBs and have done with it.

Actually, give the QB the option. Either play with the flag and be protected or no flag but you're fair game. With the exceptions for head shots and the below the knee hits.
 
Eagles tried to choke it away, but that 20 point cushion proved to be enough.

Can't believe we are 6-0. Bye week to get healthy and then who knows. Been a pretty decent week to be a Philly fan, not gonna lie.
