W the nfl admitting all the missed calls

[rosscoe]

Why hasn't Dez being out on the field helmet less arguing a call THAT HE WASNT EVEN ON THE FIELD FOR been talked about?

I don't think it is against the rules in the NFL

to be on the field without a helmet but he should have been penalized for coming out and argueing the call.

Re: I don't think it is against the rules in the NFL

If you take your helmet off on the field it's a penalty, not sure how they'd interpret that, tom Jackson's the only one I've heard discuss it.

I believe it is against the rules...

My understanding is this covers it twice.

Rule 12 - Player Conduct,
Section 3 - Unsportsmanlike Conduct
Article 1 - Prohibited Acts

(h) - -
"Removal of his helmet by a player in the field of play, or the end zone, during
a celebration, OR DURING A CONFRONTATION WITH A GAME OFFICIAL or any other
player."

and

Rule 13 - Non-Player Conduct
Section 1 - Non-Player Conduct / Attendants on Field Only on Team Timeouts

"During any team timeout, all playing rules continue in force. Representatives of either team are prohibited from entering the field unless they are incoming substitutes, or team attendants or trainers entering to provide for for the welfare of a player, (MY all Caps) AND ANY GAME-TYPE ACTIVITIES ARE PROHIBITED ON THE FIELD OF PLAY."

I have seen plenty of players

taking their helmets off after a touchdown and one was this week when Murray scored

 

[jsenleo]

I didn't see Murray... but every time I've seen it happen it's been called.

....

 

[Bligedy]

you are mistaken on Murray....

He kept his helmet on. I just watched the replay.

And taking your helmet off is definitely a penalty.

The head official believes differently than you

The key point is the removal of helmet, Dez had it off all a long so did not remove it.
