Where's the flag for running into the kicker?

How about this, I'll run at you full steam with my head down and you try to wrap without some sort of contact to knock me off stride. It's simply not effective and not realistic.

It's a rugby tackle, that's what is being taught now in youth football and it works. It'll probably be a few years until it becomes more predominant in the pros but it works. The Seahawks teach it and are helping lead a bit of the movement towards a rugby style tackle rather than a hit. Get into the waist and wrap and he'll go down.

Seriously??? No flag on that contact on Maver??

Why do Dickenson has to use the challenge flag when the referee -ed and turned a blind eye??? Totally BS!!!

How the #### can a ref miss that blatent of a penalty. CFL Officiating is such incompetence. To have to use a challenge for that is ridiculous.

That's amazing that you have to spend a challenge on that. How can you miss that?

Glad it was a penalty but what a joke that no flag was thrown on that hit.

That's all fine and dandy, but if the defense is held to that standard, then when the receiver or running back lowers their head there has to be a penalty on the ball carrier

10000% agree, I hope football gets there soon. It's all about protecting the players on the field

Offside?

I'm confused. The ball wasn't snapped. He went back onside. Why the flag?

Wait, you mean you don't like our strategy of over using Messam for long yardage and then inexplicably abandoning him for short yardage situations in favour of a long pass?

Guess Dave didn't learn anything from last year's Grey Cup on how to Use Messam.

Well at least the panel isn't incredibly stupid like the PBP guys, actually comparing that perfectly clean hit to the Awe hits.
