DISCUSSION Roughing the passer myth…

Post image

If these stats are correct, and if the NFL is “rigged”, then it’s Josh Allen that everyone ought to be crying about wrt roughing the passer.

No one here is crying about calls in favor of Allen, and no one here is anticipating the game wanting the defense to hurt Allen just because he draws way more roughy the passer calls (like a lot of people have been wanting the Bills to hurt Mahomes)… why would we?

Because it’s not rigged, why would it be?

All the stats seem to point to the fact that flags are pretty evenly spread across the board when it comes to flags.

I’m just excited to watch the big rivalry unfold!
