I hate roughing the kicker. That was such a BS call.

It should be same as RTP. If your close to a sack you get away with legal hits.

What's Gardeck supposed to do? He was about 2 inches from blocking the kick and the kicker threw himself into him.

This practice squad long-snapper is having a shaky day. But at least he puts it low where it can be handled, instead of over everybody's head where it gets picked up and run 94 yards for a TD.

It was a horrendous call. He took a safe route and was crossing in front of the kicker at 90 degrees. Touches his leg and that's "roughing" for the full 15-yarder? NFL officiating is WAY beyond unacceptable nowadays.

On the first handoff to Conner if Murray pulls the ball out, he could walk-in. Whoever is up in the booth should have communicated that.
