Did Dak Actually Get A Roughing Flag?

[Risen Star]

Come on now, your thinking about a Dakota tattoo aren't you? You are just trying to determine if it would be best on your forearm or chest because of that eczema thing that pops up every now and then.

A wrap around forearm tattoo?

I don't have that kind of cash.

ON a kind of related matter, I thought the refs were really quick to blow the whistle.

On 2 plays, Dak had a defender around his legs but was still able to get the ball away for what could have been an INC pass. But officials had blown the whistle and they were considered sacks.

HOpefully refs will watch more carefully in future games and give him an extra second or two

Yeah, it seems like you can't fight to stay on your feet anymore. Somebody may hit you or, worse, hurt your feelings.

Let's leave some semblance of manhood in the game. A QB is sacked when he's tackled.

Is it North Dakota or South Dakota........makes a big difference on placement of the tattoo

Exactly. Roethlisberger literally has someone at his legs 50% of the throws he makes. I'm assuming they're trying to protect the rookie from serious injury, but they're calling them sacks too soon like you said.

I think people just have a natural tendency to feel sorry for Dak. ...it looks like he's going to be the first QB in league history to start an entire season without throwing a TD pass.

I think that depends on which of Romo or Goff is ready to start first.

I said the same thing but at leas they evened out....the hands to face on Norman was touchy as well

But I feel 1000% OK with getting a couple calls and winning vs the usual *****ing about the refs after a loss

Agree on the Norman call, it seemed like the refs were equal opportunity bad.

That is an absolute disgrace. The fact that Dak got one is amazing.

Holy crap. That's insanity.
