This is going to be a looooong season if what #92 does on the last play is going to be called a penalty...

I might be blind, but I didn’t see anything wrong. One might have been close.

At speed I didn't see anything wrong with the play. Frame by frame however the crown of the helmet hits first then snaps up. I see this as being a disaster much like the current helmet to helmet rule where incidental contact can change the course of a game.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.

Exactly, that kind of stuff happens every single play. It's going to be damn near impossible for refs to call it correctly, consistently, and fairly for everyone.
