Yeah thats what i saw as well. Play live on tv, you saw Schreff dive/fall on the guy after he threw him down/finished his block. On replay, they only showed Schreff throwing him down.

I thought the 15 yarder in the first half where they called hitting a defenseless player was kinda bs. I didnt see H2H but Im guessing it was a flag bc refs thought he hit him high (neck/head area). I thought it was shoulder to chest. Hard hits in secondary get flagged regardless of where contact is it seems.

That was one of those plays where Id like the skins to lay up, the ball is gone. Like Swearinger did on SF's final drive. Yes, you got the guy lined up and you want to lay the lumber but the guy already didnt make the catch so by finishing him Mortal Combat style you either get a 15 yarder or injury yourself .. or both. If its to break up a pass, go for it. But if the ball has already sailed into the sideline or hit the ground .. hold up. Save your body for when you need to take that big hit.
