Los Angeles Chargers pass rusher Joey Bosa was fuming at the officials for the game-turning unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in his team's 31-30 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. He contained his emotions at the time but today he went off.
Speaking to the media during the team's exit interviews, Bosa deemed it unfair that he faces a fine if he criticizes referees but the referees get to joke about making a bad call that ruins a game.
"If I say something to them I get a $40,000 fine, but if they blow a call that ruins an entire team's season... they'll probably be back in the locker room after the game like, 'Haha, got that a--hole, oh yeah, got him 15 yards what a loser,'" Bosa said.

They are good for about 2 quarters for me. Last night, one of their guests was Deion Sanders, and I actually enjoyed his commentary more than the Mannings. And truthfully, I’m getting a little tired of seeing all the Mannings in so many commercials. It’s overkill to me. We switched it up for a little bit last night and watched them for a bit then switched back to the other broadcast.
And because of this (and other things), the NFL is a Fake Sport that deserves no more time and attention than Fake News.
I saw that too - I mean if the fumble never happened, then the penalty incurred during the fumble recovery didn’t happen either. Simple cause and effect - no cause, no effect.

When he complained to the ref he said something that ticked the ref off.
I thought he got the penalty for taking his helmet off and slamming it on the ground.
He got a penalty because as he’s walking off the ref chased him and down and antagonized him til he said something back, got flagged for that - then threw his helmet. At least, in the video I watched.
