@SasquatchVinnie This one is much worse because Carr is technically tackling Jones.

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@Frankie5times @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 Agree. Playing defense is unfair. I am just saying this wasn’t an example of favoritism, this was officiated correctly considering the soft rules for qbs

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@MichaelDec71653 @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 Roughing is broken into categories for head/neck contact, body weight, low and late hits. body weight: Defenders cannot land on the quarterback with all or most of their full body weight when going to the ground. Doesn’t matter that he touched the ground still most of his weight

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@SpideyDave17 @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 Nah. He touched the ground, but didn’t brace anything.

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@harrison_sides @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 Penalty wasn’t called for a late hit? It was because he landed on him with his full body weight. Rule is Defenders cannot land on the quarterback with all or most of their full body weight when going to the ground. I don’t like the rule but it was officiated correctly

@dannnymo_610 @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 Rule is Defenders cannot land on the quarterback with all or most of their full body weight when going to the ground. Doesn’t even matter that he touched the ground or that he tried not to. I don’t even like the rule but it was officiated correctly. How do you see it?

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@volsmc5 @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 Nah a rules a rule even when Josh is the QB

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@MattKendall3 @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 I actually agree the rules are soft but that is a different argument then whether this was officiated correctly

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@todd_thacker @RGIII @OuttaPocketRG3 No he didn’t. He did touch the ground after driving his head down, but not nearly enough to avoid a penalty

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@Marcel_LJ That’s a textbook roughing penalty. Defender is supposed to catch himself with his hands to avoid landing full body weight. Throwing his arms out is worth nothing in terms of avoiding a penalty, needs to catch himself. You don’t have to like it but was the right call

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@SorenPetro That’s a textbook penalty. He is supposed to catch himself with his hands to avoid landing full body weight. Throwing his arms out is worth nothing in terms of avoiding a penalty, needs to catch himself

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@mboerigter I like the uniform and logo, but the hats and socks are too much. Should have been solid colors. Batting helmets are even worse than the hats

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@ShowMeFB You forgot the part about the new Trent being on a rookie deal and the 29th pick

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@codybtapp They spent 3 picks to basically keep Trent on a rookie deal and get the 29th pick

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@MrSnarky824777 @gabe_landes @CalebJHull Agreed. With the loyalty program and early checkin options they were basically charging for seats anyway. They have free seat selection so not much has changed. The line starts at booking instead of checkin. Free checked bags is another story, that was a real differentiator

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@MattVerderame My issue is when they decided to start calling DPI. There were 5 or 6 plays in the same category as the White play, that didn’t get called, so either call them or don’t, but changing it up in OT is a disservice to the players and the fans. Look at the Riley play in the endzone

[Chris Rigdon @cjrigdon]

@Matty_KCSN How is this relevant? The ball wasn’t coming out if the defender wasn’t there do you think?
