Do you remember the recent play (Baltimore) where Mahomes got hit out of bounds? Zero flag on the defense. Chiefs player got in trouble for responding to that cheap shot. He got penalized and fined. Yet the Baltimore defense got away scott-free with the cheap hit out of bounds. No penalty, no fine. Sounds like encouragement from the league to keep doing it.

Wasn't there another one a year or two ago when we played HOU and their safety (or whoever) came in on a blitz and literally punched Pat in the helmet, after he already got rid of the ball? Ref was standing right behind Pat about 7 yards? No flag, of course.
I never said Pat gets all the flags. Just that he gets a lot of flags. I mean, if you're saying he should get every possible flag, idk what to tell you. No one gets them all. But I've watched Pat get flags when it was a legal hit or when it should've probably been a non-call.
And a lot of flags, whether Pat is involved or not, are nothing more than lovetaps compared to what QBs used to deal with. Hell, that one against us in the AFCG vs. NE when CJ slapped his hand down on Brady's shoulder still ticks me off.
