I've only heard about it here though, so I'm not sure if it even happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 (edited) Here's video. It's not much, but I've seen players get ejected for similar. It wouldn't surprise me to see a suspension or hefty fine coming. Edited September 19, 2023 by rajncajn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 I don't recall ever hearing of a player suspended or fined for shoving a ref. Ejected from the game yes, that is what usually happens. Maybe they'll come down on him harder since he wasn't ejected. Would be interesting to hear the officials explain why they didn't eject him. I mean he shoved one of them in front of another official, and neither one reacted, certainly no flag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know how they're going to handle something. I don't think it's suspension worthy, but it wouldnt surprise me and I could definitely see a fine.

The NFL world sure isn't going to give him any breaks. They are investigating all aspects of those plays, from the actual fouls to shoving the ref. My simple question is, if shoving a ref is an automatic ejection why didn't they do that? I bet they have their reasons, would love to hear them. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfl-will-evaluate-and-discuss-all-plays-involving-deshaun-watson-infractions-on-tuesday/ar-AA1gWELE?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=952272c813bb43a982ca0568f14de8dd&ei=10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Wow that was quick. The NFL explains why they didn't eject him, or punish him now, basically it was inadvertant contact and did not rise to the level of a foul. After Deshaun Watson makes contact with an official, NFL explains why penalty wasn't called in Browns-Steelers - CBSSports.c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big John Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Why the special treatment? If he was not a quarterback, it would have been an automatic ejection, inadvertent or not. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not asking for the guys head here, but it was pretty clear from the video that he was either shoving the ref or yanking him by his arm to get at the other player he was arguing with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1fastdoc Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 First, I agree that Watson is low class. The facemasks were bad and blatant. Regarding the video, I understand the ref position, it was minimal. But it still occurred. Honestly, from a lineman I could see that aggression. But from a QB I expect better. He's the leader of the team and he sets the example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 He looked pretty good yesteday. Hoping that is the way he continues to look. If he can play better with the defense we have can still make some noise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
