This the refs got correct I think. But is Isiah out for part of, or the whole next game? Love the fire he plays with, but it got away from him tonight and was a real hindrance on that last drive. Im betting he gets it under control. [Reply]
It should have been offsetting penalties but I have no problem with him being ejected because he did (I think) throw a punch. The guy was attacking him well after the play and it was beyond just Pacheco retaliating and getting caught. [Reply]

Well you see, Pacheco should have just laid there and let him continue choking him out. [Reply]

It wasn’t “well after the play”, the fumble return had just continued past them. The punch was probably thrown during the play or very quickly after the whistle.
There’s no need to try to defend what he did. It was stupid and it hurt us in a critical moment. [Reply]

I didn't defend him at all. I said I had no problem with the penalty and ejection. I just thought the other player should have been penalized as well. [Reply]
I love the hell out of Pacheco. Guys got that dawg in him.
But that was a crucial penalty and there’s no excuse for it. Not a mistake or error… a personal foul. That completely changed the trajectory of the drive [Reply]

I think the argument is that based on the runner being determined won by contact the play is over at that point. [Reply]

I'm not making the argument just clarifying what I believe the argument was you were responding too. IMO he fucked up. Can't throw punches. End of story. [Reply]
