Tyrann Mathieu's personal foul on the 2 pt conversion (1 Viewer)

[zatsnzapps]

Can anyone shed some light on why his hit on Baker was a personal foul?

I saw one step and Mathieu's shoulder to Baker's upper torso.

It feels like yet another BS personal foul call against the Saints.

Looked like a normal hit to me.

Because he hit him too hard.

It was total BS. Only the call from upstairs saved us there.

A completely legal hit.

 

[Mamba]

Mayfield looked committed to run and then flicked it at the last split-second. Not sure what they want/expect Matthieu to do.

I’m sure all of you noticed the complete lack of comments on that hit by the guys in the booth as well.

They called it a late hit, but never showed replay in real time speed. It was close but not obvious.

They need to limit the roughing the passer calls outside the tackle box, or else just ban QBs from running, or at least ban them from running out of the shotgun.

What is Mathieu supposed to do there?

/sarcasm on/ Allow a 5 yard halo for Mayfield to make up his mind whether he's a runner or a thrower? /sarcasm off/

Because he hit him too hard.

Seriously, how a hit LOOKS has more to producing a flag than whether it was actually a personal foul/penalty by rule. Happens all the time.

I'm starting to understand how the other NFC East fans feel about always having ex-Cowboys as announcers.

Yep, and the no comments on the BS facemask call on Bresee on third down when he clearly had the top of the helmet on the replay.

The Breese face mask call and the Adebo BS illegal contact call were awful. luckily the Bucs couldn’t capitalize on them.

Even better, you mean the official replay back in New York can over turn/ call a penalty that is obvious, but not called on the field? i’m still speechless and utterly mad that this was not used before in a certain championship game!!!


for those who do not what know what I’m talking about, it is the 2 point conversion where Godwin was awarded the catch, however, it was reviewed by New York and called a penalty on Godwin.

I actually just looked up the rule change, and it was done in 2021.
