This is an argument I'm having in another thread. Supposedly this hit should have been flagged because Mahomes was heading out of bounds even though he asnt officially out of bounds yet. IMO, there's no way this should be flagged. A player in bounds is a player in bounds and can get hit. As much as I'd love for Mahomes to be protected, objectively there's no way they should call a penalty here.
Also it's weird how people hate the refs but want to add even more subjectivity to how they rule. So now they have to guess if a player is clearly going out of bounds on not? Makes no sense to me but hey...I'm CPs chief contrarian so I may be way off... [Reply]

No one has to do that. But for something that happens all the time, the fact that no even one incident came to anyone's mind without having to look at game film is funny. Using the pick play comparison you mentioned, I'm sure if I made a thread about it, at least one person would remember a pick play penalty that was called/wasn't called.
But whatever, the poll speaks for itself. I'll concede the point. [Reply]

Everyone that is or has been watching football for years knows that was a unnecessary roughness penalty. Romo and Nance said as much also.
The biggest reason is that the precedent has been set by years of officiating where this has been a penalty. Mahomes was not out of bounds but with the angle he could not have turned it up field.
I think you are right that you are just being a contrarian.
If you want to see others on film YOU go look it up. [Reply]
Didn’t we get called for one on a WR this year? He was heading out and or db got to him about the OOB line and got UR penalty? I remember seeing one this year but can’t remember what game. [Reply]
You would think that Mahomes has a big enough name now to get that call. If it was Brady,Brees,Rodgers is would have been called. Total bullshit. [Reply]
This is inconsistently called because of Peyton Manning. It was a point of emphasis thing for a while that to protect QBs, just like a slide, if they give up and head out of bounds, you can't touch them. Them Manning comes along and starts faking the run out and grabbing 3 or 4 more yards before really going out. After that it started to get inconsistent with more mobile QBs who run frequently not getting the call. Now it is kind of messy, but I think Romo was right, it should have been called. The subjective part isn't how hard the hit is, it is whether he really gave up forward progress. And he did go out on the trajectory he was heading. [Reply]
This is clearly a penalty on Hightower, no need to throw Mahomes out of bounds. Now watch the end and tell me you wouldn't want Cam Erving as a teammate. Dude flies in to protect @PatrickMahomes after the play, great teammate pic.twitter.com/HFiNPiNwsN
The one thing about Erving ever since he’s been here is that he’s always stuck up for his teammates no matter what. He’s a guy you want on your team [Reply]
So what happens if PM jukes a move while “heading out of bounds”, stays in bounds and gains another twenty yards? If there is no penalty for that, then the defender has every right to shove him out of bounds. [Reply]

Like I said, I'll concede to the majority. But I still don't believe that's a penalty. If one of our players pushes Brady or Jackson while they're still in bounds, it better not be a fucking penalty because pushing someone while they're in bounds is not a fucking penalty. It's just not. [Reply]

Exactly.
It's crazy that people are okay with refs determining when a player is "clearly" going out of bounds or not. People hate when refs make judgement calls but suddenly in this case it's okay.
Until a player steps out of bounds, it should be okay to shove them. [Reply]
