Misunderstanding of what I was saying.
1. I was commenting that on the alleged PF of Flacco that Flacco was out of the pocket and hitting him in bounds was legal. As I said he had one foot in bounds. NOT a penalty.
2. The separate helmet to helmet hit I referred to occurred on
SF's 3rd down attempt at the EZ, the play before the 4th down controversial "holding" call or non-call in this instance. The Ravens player struck the receiver in his helmet with his, the defender's helmet. That is a point of emphasis PF, not called and would have resulted in 1st and goal from the 2 1/2 or so by memory. It seemed accidental to me but MUST be called by rule. It wasn't called
and the announcers blew right by it.
