I don't know, but it was within 5 yards of the LOS so if a defensive back can chuck a receiver I would think they would let a receiver push off a little. Besides, receivers push off all the time and if they called it all the time we would never get through a game.

I think I may actually dislike AD at this point.

Can we just sit Peterson for a quarter and see what happens?

Receiver is not allowed to initiate contact to clear themselves

Asiata looking better than Peterson so far. Nice effort even though he came up short.

I doubt you will find that in the rule book.

The offense is more dynamic when McKinnon or Asiata are on the field. Just my opinion. I will conced that it is due to them not having 9 in the box, but Peterson can't run against 9 in the box like he use to. Have to move on.

I honestly don't even feel like watching this game. This offense makes me sick. Turner makes me sick. The refs make me sick

We are better than the Pack. Just need some deep PI calls.
