Joey Gladstone 33 Posted October 25, 2011 On the replay (different angle) it was clear that the blitzing defensive back lowered his helmet and speared McCoy in the back with it. Since both guys weigh like 170, it didn't look like a hard hit at all, and the default angle looked completely clean... but the DB definitely tried to spear McCoy's spine. So a guy's facemask grazing the back of another guy's shoulder pads = spearing his spine? okayyyyyy Also, Kam Chancellor is a huge safety, 6'3 and 230 lbs. If he actually did spear McCoy's spine, Colt wouldnt have finished the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm the biggest Browns fan there is, and that call was a load of crap. Don't even try to defend it, especially if you're a Browns fan. We're the fan base that loves to talk about how Turkey Jones power bombed Terry Bradshaw on his neck, but we're going to try to defend this being a legit penalty? (Oh, and I'm assuming you're a Browns homer, because only the biggest Browns homer thinks that is a flag). SMH. If you look at it in super slow motion, the Seattle DB did put his head down (but not malicously) and his helmet glanced off the middle of McCoys back (not the spine). And again, you have to look at it in SUPER SLOW MOTION to even see he led with his helmet, because it wasn't that bad. Like I texted my brother once that flag was thrown. "I'll take it, but that was a BS call. Just put a focking skirt on all QBs" In the grand scheme of things, who cares. It's not like either team deserved to win that horseshit of a game. P.S. you wanna see what roughing the passer looks like, watch this: Funniest thing about this video isn't actually Bradshaw being thrown to his neck, but dude scooped the ball and tried to score. LOL. He didn't care about Bradshaw's ability to ever walk again. Imagine if Suh (since this is what the topic is about) tried to do the same thing now? No wonder QBs are as good as they are. You can't touch them. And the Falcons bitching about the Ryan play, just shows how much QBs are babied now a days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
