Yeah as others have said in this day and age I understand the penalty but this is him just playing football.Originally posted by swoosh6996:Originally posted by 49er_Rider:Originally posted by Phoenix49ers:Originally posted by brodiebluebanaszak:Anyone have a clip?
Bosa laid a hard hit on him but he went right for his chest. He was trying to keep him from pursuing on the interception. Throw the 15 yard flag because this is the new NFL but whining about it is ridiculous. Bosa wasn't trying to hurt O'Neill.

Zimmer was asked about the play after the game.
"I didn't see the hit," he responded. "I just heard (from players that) it was just a cheap shot, which I think it was."
He didn't see it, but believes it was a cheap shot. Sounds credible.

idk, the hit doesn't seem as hard, he just dropping all crazy to the ground looks more like he tried to sell it. But if anyone remembers when Warren Sapp laid out Gilbert Brown, that s**t was full force lol... nothing compared to Bosa. But I guess i need to realize im not wearing the pads so it might be a hard blow

If the Viking turns his head it's not a penalty
Which shows you how dumb the call and rule is

It something they will always throw a flag on, but calling it dirty is stupid.

This. I mean I could understand if a player has no chance of making a play on the ball but this guy did, You can not expect a player not to block. That is there natural football instinct. You cant expect a defensive player who doesn't practice blocking , in the moment to know he needs to make sure the Offensive player sees him . Then it is even more ridiculous to act like it is a cheap shot. I get by rule this is a flag and there was a flag on it but anyone calling Bosa a dirty player is retarded.

It's clean as long and he is not blocking towards his own end zone. He is clearly going out of his way to block towards the sidelines. It was a BS call.

Agreed. I was surprised by the call. I think the refs called it because they only saw how O'Neill went down. O'Neil should have been looking in the direction he was running to.

players should just start looking away when getting blocked to get the call.

The rule says parallel or towards your own end zone, which is stupid wording.

It's a shame that the crybabies in Minnesota are saying it was dirty. I didn't see intent. It's overshadowing a fantastic performance by Bosa. Sacks, pressures, against the run, a PBU, he did it all. Maybe his best game as a pro.
