he's not, its bs.
Well I kinda feel like they were obligated to call something. But I agree with you it was a BS call. How is the guy a defenseless receiver? He caught the ball therefore tackling him was legal. But the refs were obligated to call that because it was a big hit.
Same situation in the AZ/SF game. Fitz caught the ball but a flag was thrown for the hit on him. So I guess when a guy catches the ball, let him get a couple yards then tackle him. I swear the NFL now. Trying to dislodge the ball is now illegal in the NFL. This is why I think maybe they should implement replay on these type of flags.
