Part of blocking is lining up on people. Picking someone or having an assignment to block someone. That is the way the game is played. It was a hard, clean, legal hit. It may have been a tenth or two of a second before the ball was caught. Its like get over it.
Can you hit a defensive player on a pass more than five yards downfield before the ball touches an offensive player, yes or no?
My point is NOT that I am hanging on a penalty. It is irrelevant to me that a penalty was or was not called. That would have made zero difference in the outcome.
My issue is a refusal to acknowledge the fact of the case that it was not a hit within the rules of the game.
