How did Rod Smith get sacked? What is going on here?
I cant watch this game ... but the stats sure are ####'d up!
Should be -11 rushing yards and not a sack1-10-DEN20 (14:55) R.Smith sacked at DEN 9 for -11 yards (sack split by E.Hicks and S.Knight). R.Smith lined up to the left, went in motion to the right, took handoff from J.Plummer to the right and was sacked.

QB is the only position that gets sacked, right?Or is it when the ball carrier is looking to pass, but gets tackled? IOW, is it possible, on a trick play, to have Rod (or ARE, or M Jones, etc.) actually be sacked?It is possible.Brian Westbrook got sacked last week.How did Rod Smith get sacked?

Cummon ... I am not watching. DO more then vent, gimme details!Terrible ####### call. Let the players ####### play football. ####.

"Oh, our helmets hit a bit"That was a Lynch reputation call.But he needs to know better than to put his offense at 15 yard disadvantage like that.Sorry. I am pissed. There was helmet to helmet contact, but it was pretty much indidental. By no means did Lynch lead with his helmet.Cummon ... I am not watching. DO more then vent, gimme details!Terrible ####### call.

He went helmet to helmet on Kennison on an overthrown ball over the middle. Then he got in the refs face the next play. If you lead a hit on a defenseless receiver with the top of your helmet in his facemask right in the middle of the field you are going to get called.Edit: I agree with ThatGuy and I don't think it was intentional, but it was a penalty nonetheless.Cummon ...

Lynch was certainly frustrated from the previous call. Lynch is a vet he should have at least been able to plead his case without a penalty.Well, glad the refs gave them the call on the one...![]()

And you could call that on almost every big hit.He went helmet to helmet on Kennison on an overthrown ball over the middle. Then he got in the refs face the next play.

The guy is getting pounded out there. You could tell by how he gets up after every hit. Very tough break for the Chiefs.I am glad they did it, but why do you give LJ a blow on 3 and 1???
Making up for the BS call on the Lynch hit. I can't see how it doesn't get overturned, though.Yikes what a bad spot.

I stand corrected.Don't see how there's evidence to overturn this.
