Looks like hand couldn't reach helmet from that angle. Maybe the neck is also protected
Bull crap call by Ed Hercules. It gave them an early lead - but in retrospect, so what.
fair enough, but he could also be as low as the NFL logo, cannot tell from this angle. But it was NOT a hard hit in any event. I've seen Sam just killed and nothing called.believe its neck and higher

Yes, that's true, but that, with the possible FF and scoop and score which should have been played out, and if it was an incomplete pass then overturned, it was close then. Would Vikings still have dominated? Yeah. With our OL, QB play and blowing plays on defense, yeah. we still get beat. But I like the calls the be right an consistent . . .were Vikes called for anything that affected them?
It's getting to the point the games are almost unwatchable. Flag after flag...it really takes the fun out of the game. Justifiable penalties are one thing but there are some calls where you watch the replay and you say to yourself WTH was that!
It makes me wonder if the NFL legal folks are telling the refs to call the penalties so the players cant sue the league later for not protecting them during games. I don't know maybe I'm overthinking this.
because they blew whistle. They are supposed to let those play out so a coach CAN challenge. Now, had it played out and it was rule INCL pass, they was likely not enough evidence to overturn it. But if it were ruled a fumble, and Vikings had to challenge, there would not have been enough evidence to overturn that. So, they are supposed to let it play out.There were plenty of questionable calls that COULD have made a difference in the outcome and lots of penalties that could have not been called it really does make you wonder why there were not multiple calls for holding against Quinn.
And why didn't Fisher challenge the Quinn hit that was a forced fumble? They acted as if it wasn't a question when if you watched closely Quinn knocked the ball loose before knocking the arm forward. Definitely took 6 away from us on that play.
All of those things also make me think there is hope for these guys yet
