Salvation Army Kettle

[Point-of-the-Star]

If they were warned, that's different, but the celebration rule does not have anything in it that would penalize a player for doing what Elliott did, and there have been plenty of celebrations that have been overlooked that actually violate the rule (such as celebrating on the Cowboys' midfield star).

I agree ... can't remember the game but remember a player jumping into the stands and getting on the TV camera ... without a flag.

I loved it. They're winning and having fun doing it. There may be hope yet.

God some of you are beyond insufferable.

I know I am.

Gotta love Zeke! Puts $21 in the kettle on his TD and then puts Dak in. Cost us 15 yards, but I thought it was a cool way to bring awareness.

Throwing Dak in could have cost us the game with that return. Stupid

Throwing Dak in could have cost us the game with that return. Stupid

So could have a lot of other things. Get over it!

I am so sick of stupid celebrations by all players . Get rid of them all!

I thought it was stupid. You can tell dak didnt really want to do it but Zeke forced the issue. Difference between responsible and childish.

Nope-you should never lose because of stupid!

 

[Ranching]

Should not have cost us 15 yards. See my NFL celebration rule post.

It did.

I didn't realize we lost.....stupid.

I'm hoping the league at least gives some kind of explanation for why it was a penalty. If the teams were warned not to use the kettle, then the call is understandable. If not, then the call was for something that does not violate the rules.

Bunch of ol fart killjoys around here!!!!

I can see why you like them! Fits you!

 

[SoupcanSam]

Bad penalty jumping in....led to a td...these guys have to be smarter than that....while I like celebrations after tds I would rather be doing celebrations after wins

Being the youngest team in the NFL comes at a price............child's play and monkey business.

You can't blame the player if it isn't against the rules. The officials would be at blame for getting the call wrong.

Shut the hell up!!! You don't know me, piss ant

Historically, we've been flagged for the strangest things. I believe Witten handed a ball to an OLineman who spiked the ball against Tennessee or somebody. It ended up costing the game.

I remember after Zeke jumped in the kettle, the team was warned that another celebration involving a jump in the kettle would be flagged.

Now whether or not it should be- no I don't think so at all.

The point is we are no position to leave a team with any extra advantage. I knew we would clamshell the offense and try to get out of here.

We did, but a few calls the other way and we embarrass ourselves again in front of the whole world.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Who cares. We won.

I had to reread my post to see where I was disputing the win. I will keeping looking.
