MartyB's Block?

[Bleu Star]

Was that block in the back call really a block in the back??? Does anyone have video of that? It seemed legal to me and they didn't spend much time debating the call which pissed me off. That was one of many momentum changers...

 

[Boyzmamacita]

I don't know if that block really impacted the play. It looked like Austin was going to get around that guy anyway.

Honestly, I didn't think it was a good call initially, but after watching the re-play it's definitely a block in the back.

The only replay I saw was from the end zone so the angle was all wrong.

 

[WoodysGirl]

It was definitely a block in the back. He totally wiped that guy out. lol

He apologized for it on twitter.

Ok. I take your word for it.

He didn't wipe him out. The defender was lunging towards Dez anyways as Bennett was going for his back.

It was a block in the back, yeah.

Well, that pretty much explains it. Ok. Thanks.

This.

It was borderline, but I think it was the right call.

So him flying forward like that didn't seem like Bennett wiped him out?

It was a block in the back regardless of my description.

 

[JohnsKey19]

It was an obvious penalty. Bennett needs to pull up there. This penalty pretty much stopped us in our tracks just as we were wrestling control of the game offensively.

 

[casmith07]

It was a good call.

Bennett for RT though?

 

[Section446]

It was a good call.

Bennett for RT though?

Any worse than Barron?

 

[Bleu Star]

It was a good call.

Bennett for RT though?

I have zero doubt that Bennett > Barron at Barron's position.

 

[Section446]

I have zero doubt that Bennett > Barron at Barron's position.

You and me both. Bennett may be a bum thus far as a pass catcher, but the guy can block.

But Bennett didn't wipe him out. Still, he blocked him in the back. It had no bearing on the outcome of that play though because dude took himself out of the play regardless of Bennett touching him.
