NFL informed Jets that refs “should not have” penalized DE John Franklin-Myers On Prescott

[rocknrobcowboy]

Upon Further Review NFL Officials has acknowledged that a roughing the passer call made in Week 2’s Jets-Cowboys matchup was incorrect.

I agree with NFL...it shouldn't have been a penalty. I'm sure the refs will make up for it later against Dallas though.

inb4 12 holds called on us making this game a lot closer

Dak is gonna get the benefit of the calls and I love it.

 

[Momanpr100]

As I was telling my cousin who's a Jets fan, Dak is gonna get those vet calls, Zach Wilson won't get that call lol. He was mad lol

That's fine, but with both the Roughing the Passer calls Prescott got, those are called with some frequency for every other QB.

Can't hit the QBs low (which is not the one the NFL admitted was wrong), and the late hit / full body weight calls typically go in favor of the QBs, rather than not.

Just goes to show that the rule is a joke and either removed or be less vague so it's much less of a "judgement call".

JMHO

True enough but if indeed they are starting to call these admittedly lame penalties for Dak too then that's a good thing. Lord knows we've seen plenty of times when a defender has been able to go upside Dak's head, grab his facemask and all manner of crap with no flag in sight! But frankly I hate these soft rules against breathing on the QBs and receivers. It doesn't even look like they're being allowed to play tackle football at times.

Whatever. Anything below the waist is a. Low hit on the QB. If those. Guy knows he’s gonna hit him low he has to try to avoid it. Jets player didn’t.

Cam Newton got the worst of that.
Funny enough Dak seems to get the tiniest calls, but they seem to miss the worst it seems.

Room got hit so low it would’ve. Killed all of us yet never got them. See Matthews, Clay TWICE in the bogus NFCC game.

On the other hand, the refs have not called a fair amount of RTP against teams playing the Cowboys. Maybe he is getting his overdue calls.

Hell, they used to give Brady those calls when someone just came too close to hitting him. We've had more than our share of BS calls against us so I'll forgive the NFL for now. Watch a Chiefs game and see many how calls they get in their favor...

 

[MarcusRock]

Oh, look at the "but, but, what about ..." running rampant in here. Lol. The refs blow calls against everyone, folks. Everyone. Even our opponents. It's okay to admit it. It happens.

 

[The Quest for Six]

Both roughing the passer calls on Dak were horrendous in my opinion...

I said immediately that was a bogus call, but I won't complain about it, lol.

They were both ticky tack, but both technically fouls, IMO.

That was my thought in real time when it happened: "Is Dak the new Brady???"

 

[jazzcat22]

Most of these are judgement calls, so how can they really say this.
Unless it is an obvious blow to the head or body slam, intentionally going to the knees. But some Dallas players in the past, an inadvertent finger tap was called. But our QB's never got them calls.

I thought it was a weak call as well. But it is part of the game. We got one our way for once. And I do not feel bad about it.
