The sad thing for me is that I can't tell if that's pass interference or not. I would lean toward no, but that's just because I'm using common sense and not trying to interpret based on the NFL's current pansy rules.
Using common sense, I ask myself, "Did the defender make contact in a way that prevented the receiver from catching the ball?" I mean, that is the original point of the rule, right? The ball hit the defender in the back. The receiver was not going to catch that due to the defender's position, and any contact between the two had nothing to do with the fact that the ball wasn't caught. I view hitting the defender's back as being no different than hitting a lineman's hand when it's thrown. It's a defensed pass, no matter how inadvertent. But the bottom line is that an official can call it any way he wants and can defend it. That's a major problem and it tells me that the NFL needs to do a global rethinking of its rules. They're too complicated and nuanced these days. In this case, for example, calls aren't being made because contact prevented the receiver from catching the ball. They're being made because contact was made and the ball was not caught, regardless of whether there's any connection between the two events. |

How many times was that a flag against William Bartee for not turning his head around?
