The problem, as you noted, is that it's become a catch-all. And that's simply not the case in all instances and wasn't the case here. Watson wouldn't have done anything differently had he turned his head - he couldn't have with Adams in full stride. He was exactly where he should've been to defend that pass.

Carr and Brady are the two best QBs at just chucking up balls for the sole purpose of getting a DPI called. And there's nothing that the DB can do. It's ****ing bullshit.

Have we established yet that the misdemeanor assault charges filed against Adams weren't actually as a result of this play? Because that was more savage than anything Chris Jones did on Sunday...

That year they went to the AFCCG, I swear it was in the playbook.

"Keep your hands inside the pads and it's not a penalty..." The **** it isn't - a hold is a hold. But it's considered an acceptable hold if you're inside their pads. It kinda gets back to the fact that this game just moves too fast for some of these calls. So officials, rather than get it right, look for certain keys. If an O-Lineman has his hands outside the pads and turns a defenders shoulders, they're probably gonna throw a flag. If a defender makes contact with a receiver and didn't turn his head, they're probably gonna throw a flag. If a WR fully extends his arms before separation to make a catch, that's probably gonna be an OPI (but not if he just gives a quick chuck that could create even more separation). If a DB gets his hands above a WRs waist when he's running alongside him, look for illegal contact, even though below the waist can be just as disruptive, it won't be called. And there's more if you think about it. If a WR's head snaps forward on contact, that's gonna be an unnecessary roughness even if there was no contact to the head. These refs use shorthands and proxies to make up for the fact that they can't actually see what's happening in real time. It's irritating as hell. Those shorthands are right far more often than they're wrong, but that doesn't mean they aren't wrong often enough to meaningfully impact outcomes.

Dunlap is a guy who gets some sacks, but he doesn't consistently impact plays positively. He's a pure rotational player at this point in his career and will likely see most of his production be either matchup dependent or possibly coverage sacks. He's not a difference maker and never should have been considered as such.

Man he looked good against LA last week. Limited reps but impactful every time he was out there.
