Seahawks should just have their WRs go and run into the defenders every play.

If that's DPI now force the refs to call it.

It's an unfair world. Hopkins just ran through him, but Tre needs to be a little bit savvier. Fully wrapping his arms around Hopkins like that is an almost automatic flag.

I don't like that he got called for it, but that's how you get yourself called for bogus flags. They're looking specifically for whether or not you wrap your arms fully around a receiver like that.

He should have actually let himself get run over, rather than try to hang onto him.

It's like a charging call in basketball becomes a defensive foul if the defender puts up any resistance at all.

this team does not deserve the playoffs….they played uninspired undisciplined football today and now it comes down to one final drive to save the season

Now if DK does it the same way, the penalty will be opi as these stripes are really bad today

That flop by their no 12 belongs in soccer. No way should he be celebrating a playacting move like that.

That was a more mutual fight in which DK's momentum wasn't arrested.

An official would've seen Hopkins momentum stopped coupled with the DBs arms around him in a full hug. Hopkins initiated this, but for an official, that's going to look like textbook DPI. I can see why it was called. All the focal points an official is supposed to look for were there.
