While he did move his arm up to block the throw, it is Rays arm that forces the defenders arm to glancing his helmet. If you are going to call that contacting the head on a QB, how is the Perry hit where it is his own impact causing the contact (much more severely I may point out, let alone with more serious results) to DD's head, not called.

It almost seemed as if the double toss out earlier in the game had the old "In the second half, I will make up for the call" syndrome affect to those two calls. Crazy that it was the head referee making those calls.
One more illustration why the CLF is generaly viewed as a bush league, by the world of football.

Not so much for bad or ill-timed calls which is of itself reason for thumbs down, but so much as conconsistant calling of a penalties which was O.K. last week, but will not be tolerated this week.

Go and figure. :roll: :? :x

Consistency is THE key to reffing........it doesn't matter how you choose to enforce rules.....as long as you do it consistently.
