That chop block

[NineOneSeven]

Excuse me, "chop block", was one of the worst calls I've seen given what it took away at that point of the game.

I didn't see it.

 

[Toga]

Total BS. He was not even close to being engaged.

 

[tbonezone]

total BS call that actually took points off the board. defender was already engaged and contained and no threat to the qb. incidental hand to the back in no way affected the outcome of the play or endangered the defender. should be a non call in any rational universe. but unfortunately this is the ACC.

 

[OrangeDW]

Acc refs have been screwing us since we joined the league.

 

[NashvilleOrange]

Shouldn't have been called, even so, they should have called defensive PI which would have been offsetting penalties. Infuriating.

 

[Killdozer]

Actually, the ACC refs are among the worst of any conference. I hope the ACC look deep into the training of these officials.

 

[OrangePA]

And they missed the PI call on the end zone catch by Cornelius.

 

[FAL]

Actually, the ACC refs are among the worst of any conference. I hope the ACC look deep into the training of these officials.

I have a similar thought: do they have some kind of review process at the end of the season where they review referees' performance during the season? If not, they should!

This looked like a Tobacco Road screw job from my vantage point. ACC: All Clear, Carolina.

That call and the bogus PI on Franklin that leads to a td game was winnable but boned again by acc refs

 

[Millhouse]

Football sucks. I'm not over MNF yet now this

Dontae Strickland on chop block: 'I did what I was coached to do'

Dontae Strickland on chop block: 'I did what I was coached to do'

The man saw a lineman falling towards him. He did it perfectly.

 

[NineOneSeven]

What's amazing is that even if that was the right call aka we had our lineman engaged with d lineman, that would have been the only time all game

 

[SWC75]

We shouldn't have practiced on this field:

 

[Orijinal]

Just a question: does anyone know if that chop block penalty flag was thrown before or after the touchdown was called?

I'm assuming everything is on the up and up and the flag was thrown during the play, not after.

Just curious here ...
