Touching a player who is on his knees makes the player just as down as touching a player who is laying on the ground. The penalty for unnecessarily hitting either is the same as well. I'm cheering for the Seahawks and there's no way those players didn't have time to pull up and touch him down.So was he on his knees or laying on the ground. He just got up onto his knees and the hawks had half a second to figure out he wasn't getting all the way up. Unavoidable and a bs penalty. Especially with all the late shots they've been letting go.Shouldn't be a flag, dude was getting back up.Should have been a flag. And he was sitting on his knees slapping the ball, not getting up.Regardless, you can't destroy a guy who is laying on the ground and just needs to be touched to make him down. That's the poster child of "unnecessary roughness". Flag well deserved, and he might end up with a fine.
You honestly thought he was trying to get back up? You are one blind bat if so.Good posting? First he says dude was on his knees and then defends why you can't hit someone laying down. Yup, real good posting.Shouldn't be a flag, dude was getting back up.Should have been a flag. And he was sitting on his knees slapping the ball, not getting up.Regardless, you can't destroy a guy who is laying on the ground and just needs to be touched to make him down.

One more FG and that should be the nail.
Kudos to Lynch and the Seahawks... the streaks had to end eventually.Given the choice of keeping the streaks alive or taking the win towards home field advantage, I think the 'Niners will rest easy tonight.100 yards. Both streaks down. Love me some beast mode.
I have. I stand by my statement that it was too quick for the guys to realize he wasn't getting all the way up. He should'nt have gotten to his knees do quickly. No way to know.Put down the rose colored glasses, re-watch the play, and then report back. TIAGood posting? First he says dude was on his knees and then defends why you can't hit someone laying down.

It doesn't matter. Even if he was getting back up, his knees were on the ground and all they had to do was touch him.

Let's say the guy was trying to get up off both knees, it could very easily take more of a touch for him to be down. In this case, the guy popped to his knees quick and didn't have time to realize he wasn't going to complete the act. They were in dive mode before it could be figured out, no time to stop. In this case, being an idiot that doesn't know he's not down got them 15 yards.It doesn't matter. Even if he was getting back up, his knees were on the ground and all they had to do was touch him.

C'mon, they had at least a split second to back off and they should have done so.
