Did the refs blow the whistle? Did you hear a whistle?.
Again. Watch the game.

Unnecessary Roughness.
You didn't answer my question. Did you hear a whistle?Again. Watch the game.
As a minimum they will say it was unnecessary roughness.
Question for you: did you think the Bobby Wagner hit on Tyrod Taylor on the last drive was "roughing the passer"? Just curious.
You didn't answer my question. Did you hear a whistle?
Yes.
I also thought Wilson was thrown down (by Alexander I think) and it was NOT called. If that's Brady, it's a penalty every time.
And we got nothing on Cam fans.

OK, I really didn't think Bobby hit him late or anything. He just landed on him. I thought that one was ticky tacky for sure.
On an offside play a QB will often go deep (think Rodgers here) when he knows he has a free play right? If the play works the team will decline the penalty and take the play. If it doesn't then they accept the penalty and do the play again. That is why refs don't blow offsides dead all the time. They allow the offense the chance at a free play. Wouldn't the same logic apply here? Sherman was offside so the refs threw the flag and essentially allowed Buffalo a free play. If Carpenter would have got the kick off and scored the FG the Bills would have just declined the offside penalty wouldn't they? So Sherman had no option but to continue with the play and not allow them a free try knowing that he was offside. If he stopped then Carpenter could just kick the ball without any worry of missing since he'd get a do-over anyway. Sherman did exactly what any good defender ought to do in that situation. It wasn't dirty. He targeted the ball, not Carpenter.
Okay. Sorry if I sound ignorant, but I'm getting frustrated by the excuses.
IT WAS NOT OFFSIDE. IT WAS UNABATED TO THE KICKER. PLAY DEAD. HE TOUCHED A PLAYER. PLAY DEAD AGAIN. HE TOUCHED THE BALL. PLAY DEAD AGAIN. HE RAN INTO THE KICKER (SHOULDER TO KNEE).
THAT IS UNNECESSARY ROUGHNESS
THAT IS NOT WHY BUFFALO LOST!!!!!!!
ANYTHING ELSE IS CONJECTURE AND DEFENDING YOUR GUY.
LMFAO!!! Read the NFL rules.
I'm just saying in that situation wouldn't any defender (regardless of the team) do the same thing when there is no whistle? If it was a QB about to throw the ball and the defender was offside wouldn't he still try to sack the QB if there was no whistle? Or is the expectation that the player should just allow a free play?
By the way, according to the official box score of the NFL they did call it defensive offsides. But then they also not unabated to the kicker. So that is a bit confusing.
1-10-SEA 35 03) 2-D.Carpenter 53 yard field goal is No Good, Short, Center-65-G.Sanborn, Holder-6-C.Schmidt. PENALTY on SEA-25-R.Sherman, Defensive Offside, 5 yards, enforced at SEA 35 - No Play. Unabated to the kicker.

Unabated is a form of offside I believe would be that explanation.

Man. I'm not saying this is why Buffalo lost. Am I the only one not looking through biased glasses? Watch the game. Listen to the refs and Blandino.
It's like you would be dishonoring them or something by admitting what happened. LOL
Shermy is dirty. End of story.
Jordan Mills is why Buffalo lost.
What difference does it make if it was dirty or not? It was roughing the kicker. 15 yard penalty, and Carpenter allowed to be tended to by trainers without having to come out for a play.
What a shit show by the refs. Nice of Blandino to tell everyone that it should've been a penalty midway during the second half, like that helps anyone.
