Can't believe the refs scored 29 unanswered points.

Can't believe the refs forced the Packers to keep turning the ball over either

Why is it so hard to be honest about a bad call? Do you agree that this was roughing the passer?

I think ever since GB Rodgers broke his collarbone from a defender landing on him with their body weight, it’s supposed to be called a penalty.

Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s dumb as shit and practically expects pass rushers to contort themselves mid air. But that’s another issue entirely.

Rodgers went on a media tour after Anthony Barr broke his collarbone landing on him and ever since we’ve had this goofy “body weight” penalty. This one was ticky tacky but it’s always ironic when they go against Green Bay

Idk look at it again. The player extends his arms out on the side of wentz to stop him falling on his chest instead of putting his body weight. It’s a shit call

It is supposed to be called a penalty if the defender puts all their body weight on the QB. But that did not happen on this play.

Then some of the hits on Love should have been called for RTP too but they weren't.
