    I could only listen to the game,

    but what happened on the penalty against a Bmore player for throwing Little to the ground for unecessary roughness in the 3rd quarter?

    Was Little gettin into guys' heads? That could help too?

    Nah that was kind of a bad call also. The ball was thrown Littles way but he didn't catch it, the defender pulled him down from behind. There was a delay on the tackle which is what drew the call but he couldn't see if Little had the ball.

    It wasn't a bad call. No matter if the player has the ball or not he cannot be picked up and slammed to the ground. It was one of the new "points of emphasis" rules put in place by the league this year.

    If he had caught it and the same tackle occurred, the penalty would still be called.

  • I'm not going to fault him on either penalty and this is why.

    1) It wasn't stupid crab like punting the ball like he used to do.

    2) The first call should be have been offsetting. The other guy took him to the ground and started to choke him.

    3) That is borderline taunting at best considering what I saw through the whole game from both sides.

    Ruining threads since 1897.

  • I'm OK withe penalties as well. The key is he kept his composure and produced after the penalties went against him.

    I didn't think he picked him up and slammed him....looked more like he whipped and swung him down....I could be wrong because I missed the play and only saw the replay.

    He clearly picked him up and body slammed him. I've read two different people talking about the penalty and both said the same thing. If he had the ball or not, it's a penalty either way this year.
