    My whole thing is what is preventing of a quarterback, in the pocket, from continuously just dropping to a knee the millisecond the pass rush is in their face? Or even more egregiously going into the play with the absolute intent of doing so? If I'm a QB I'm not ever throwing a ball away - I'm just dropping back, let the defense get close enough, then sit on my ass.

    Not the reason they lost the game btw - they were bad against the run, and the two key turnovers (one of which makes the roughing the passer harder to swallow because of the face mask) - but it's one of those times where rules get in the way of the intent and spirit of their purpose.

    Yet another reason why this sport (and pretty much all of them, actually) was better 30 years ago.

    Also, running QBs don't get these penalties called.  Pocket qbs, even when out of the pocket, get them called so much more.

    Yes of course I'm livid about the Goedert non-call (also an awful late hit call where the guy was still in bounds - jeez these guys are just terrible) but you guys are making absurd arguments that the roughing the passer called was correct and/or justified. It was disgraceful and an embarrassment. Penalty should have been on skunk beer for unsportsmanlike-ism for his ridiculous flailing backwards.

    I agree with the idea of anyone reacting to it as, "OF COURSE IT WAS A LATE HIT, IT TOTALLY WAS A PENALTY" are being ridiculous. It's really a bit much.

    It was both a penalty AND also an absolutely atrocious call. Both can be true.

    See: also a penalty AND also an absolutely atrocious call:

    He's also not wrong - again, many things can be true at the same time. I think there's still an APB out for Fletcher Cox. Anyone seen him?

    It wasn't called roughing the passer. It was merely called a personal foukl, which it was, cause Graham took 2 steps and hit a player who had given himself up.

    Ref's call at 0:31

    Not roughing the passer, would have been called if a RB or WR had given themself up the same way.

    I mean I'm done nitpicking it. We're a very bipolar city. Probably stings more because I had to be there in person for that nonsense.

    But just a reminder to everyone that we're 8-1.

    You are allowed to touch a player who has given himself up. That's all he did - not a hit. Whatever.

    After Heineke's flop I'm really not in the mood to go high.

    Heard Goedert should be back sometime during the regular season. If the Eagles lose to the Colts (another former Wentz team) today I'm gonna start to worry a little.
