Legal to hit QB on read option after the handoff

I thought and watching the replay you have going also he had time to slow up. It does show a good amount of space between Lynch and Wilson before the big hit.

Pretty soon we will see flag football, let'm play.

Look, I don't like unnecessary hits on our QB, but dammit, Wilson is a football player. He puts himself out there blocking on running plays, he holds the ball and sometimes runs with it. He's gonna take hits from time to time when he's running read-option. It is what it is.

Just wait until one of the NFL Favorite QBs gets hit like that (Rogers, Manning, ...) ... and the NFL will probably react. CK7 and RW are promising young players, but none of them is an NFL household name. Vick has been hit worse than that ... and nobody cared.
