I dunno if it was a big flop but I felt that he definently acted like he got Hit like vernon davis from Kam Bam. Im not giving props to any of this, but the media is acting like we tried to smash him into next week.

I thought it was the right call. He may have flopped, but Irvin definitely pushed him and the push, maybe not the initial contact, was 100% avoidable. Irvin needs to be smarter than that.

I'm waiting for a better replay...and haven't seen anything yet.

Looked to me like Bruce was still getting blocked, RGIII was slightly pushed by Mebane(?), and the 2 just kind of ran into each other.

In no way did Bruce intend to hit him, I don't think he even saw him. He was stumbling after being pushed in the shoulder/back and was just off balance with his head down and the hit each other.

It was a horrible call either way.

I think the penalty was called because Irvin extended his arms out and pushed him, other than that the contact was incidental.

Irvin was in the wrong, that call is made for the top end QBs. Ball was long gone. He had the same type of penalty against Newton. Has to pull up and be smart.

Except for the fact that my 90 year old grandmother wouldnt have even budged from that "contact" you make a great point.

Bruce should have never even farted near him that late after the play.

However, Griffin didn't do himself any favors having to pick himself off the ground with that gimp knee.

Just saw another replay and I agree with this 100%

Looked like Bruce was just reacting to contact, he had no idea that was Griffin, the call was correct, but ticky tacky with the way they were letting these guys play today.
