Flag? Yes. Is this a hit worthy of an ejection?

    Please enlighten us on why it wasn't an interception, as per the rule book.

    Only because you are asking.

    Rule 7, Section 3, Article 6 covers a pass that is simultaneously caught by offense and defense. Possession goes to the passing team.

    Rule 2, Section 4, Article 3 covers and defines what is a catch. Article 4 of the same section covers simultaneous possession again.

    Rule 4, Section 1, Article 3 covers when it becomes a catch based on contact with the ground.

    I'm still waiting for you to acknowledge that the helmet hit was flagrant in the still frames.

    I already told you, because when they hit the ground the ball was in possession of ER1. I know you don't like it, and as I've stated, not quite sure how he did it but he did. In the air, the gump had it in his big paws, then the mid-air scrum happened and that shit got took like an old ladies purse in the bad part of town. It was an interception. End of story.

    Reed still doesn't have possession in this shot.

    Both players were on the ground (feet) in these two shots.

    As I see this:

    The helmets colliding isn't due to leading with the helmet. It's incidental contact after he'd hit the guy on his left shoulder area.

    You remember our conversation about transparency with officials and calls? I'd love to hear from the official that threw that flag and hear why he threw i

    After watching that replay a few times I wonder if the timing was on but his judgment on catching the kick was a little off...
