When will the NFL

[93hawkeye]

issue quarterbacks flags belts, put into writing what we already know: it's illegal to tackle QBs, and finally admit it's a tackle* football league (*except for quarterbacks)??

The NFL will always protect the QB.

I’d be okay with two hand touch below the waste.

Goff took a hard hit to the face after the pick 6. Should have called back the TD. Yeah the league wants to protect the most valuable and vulnerable player, as well they should. I agree...

Once the QB crosses the line of scrimmage, a ball carrier that can be hit, just not in the head and neck area. Stop the weak calls on them running around then half slide as they are getting tackled warranting a flag. Weak sauce and I’m a KC fan. And if you flop to try and get a call, you get called for an unsportsmanlike. This isn’t soccer.

I wish Rae Carruth had Taylor Swifts address.

You can protect them without going near as far as they have gone.

When teams stop paying QBs $50 million per year

I’m not a Swiftie by any means but that’s a messed up thing to actually think let alone type and put on the internet

I believe the announcers talked about this yesterday…I am sure the NFL will ve making modifications to the current rule this off-season. Mahomes does get special dispensation…but QBs do deserve to be protected more than other players…however Mahomes “understands” what goes on and uses it to his advantage. I watched the Detroit game and their QB was absolutely assaulted in the interception and the refs did nothing. That was bullshit.
