Are you as much of a drama queen when you're busy "officiating local and regional games"? And as for who I am, I'm the guy who's right and you're the one who's wrong. So much for your officiating experience. And the last time I checked those rules (ahem, high school) differed from those used in the NFL so you may want to actually check into it before you go running your mouth.

Not once did I say I was happy to see him get hurt or that I hated the eagles, all I have ever said is that the defender made a LEGAL hit. Which he did regardless of what your pseudo-proffessional opinion is.

You are right. The other guy just doesn't know the NFL rule. A QB is only protected when:

1) He has completed a throwing motion.

2) He scrambles and slides FEET FIRST.

3) The whistle has blown.

4) He goes out of bounds.

END OF STORY. None of those four things happened yesterday. Now, I can't believe they didn't blow the whistle, but if the refs saw McNabbit stumble over his own guy's feet, and thought him capable of getting up and making a play, they were duty-bound to let the play continue.
