Aqib Talib Committed Facemask ‘On Purpose’; First Personal Foul ‘Was B.S.’
by Doug Kyed

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — There was no one more ecstatic in the post-Super Bowl 50 press conference room than the always entertaining and sometimes volatile Aqib Talib.

The Broncos cornerback marched up to his podium with his three children and let out an enthused, “Yoooooo” after Denver beat the Carolina Panthers 24-10 for his first championship ring.

The night didn’t start out too positively for Talib, who was charged with two personal fouls in the first 20 minutes of action.

“It was all good,” Talib assured. “It was B.S. flags. One was on our sidelines — the guy was talking on our sideline. One I just did on purpose, and I just had to show him. It’s probably going to be a fine, but hey, we’re world champs.”

Talib’s first personal foul came when he was called for taunting after pushing Panthers wideout Corey Brown out of bounds following a Broncos sack.

“We were just talking, and it was getting a little chippy, so the ref picked me to slow the game down,” Talib said. “We didn’t do anything. We were just talking noise to each other, me and (Brown), a regular conversation.”

The second was thrown when he yanked Brown out of bounds by the receiver’s facemask to prevent a touchdown. Talib downplayed the impact of the foul.

“My teammates knew what it was,” Talib said. “He was on the 3-yard line. (With) a personal foul, he was on the 1 1/2-yard line, so it is what it is.”

The Panthers scored their only touchdown on the ensuing play, when running back Jonathan Stewart leaped over the line for the score.

“That was the most fun game I’ve played in by far,” Talib said. “I had about four or five catches on me, and I still think that was the most fun I’ve had in a game in my life.”

By the looks and sounds of it, Talib also had plenty of fun after the game, too.

It's the year of the concussion, not the face mask!

Well, unless there isn't one...

NFL officials, ya gotta hate 'um...

I dont like the penalty box approach to a flagrant penalty. The refs have to much judgement in a game as it is. A 15 yard penalty I would be ok with and if its inside the 15 yard line and penalized team takes over on downs its 1st and 25 from ball spot. Any score inside the 15 by fouled team and its administered on the kickoff. 1st and 25 from spot. If penalized team runs kickoff back for TD its nullified and spotted on the 15 yard line.

Oh and 2 flagrant fouls in a game ejection.

Just adopt the basketball model. That easy.

wtf? guessing you made srnse, or another spelling, cents?

Maybe even auto ejection of Headcoach for not getting player under control if a second flagrant by same player. This would also require a review by league office officials in NY to determine if foul was flagrant.

I love baseballs rule of ejecting managers. It is good entertainment watching the 5 minute argument but might require spit hood in back pockets.

Then there would be uproar of no targeting calls. It's a tough spot for officials.

And if they NFL mans-up, good. It'll be a rare event if they do. Plus, Talib will be the one who makes sure he's making news at a vacation destination, prolly ****ing an owner's college daughter, just to piss them off.

They manned up for Sean Smiths suspension.

there is an honesty problem in football. in every game, the home team has control of the video that is displayed. in this superbowl, denver kept the video from the refs about the cotchery catch that rivera challenged. by the way, denver was the home team
