Wow this was salty.

Also didn’t say it wasn’t, said it was questionable..

As previous posters have said it was a bang bang play, but you hit the QB high like that 9/10 it’s a call. Whether that’s right or not is up for debate, but that will called alot more often that it doesn’t my friend.

Yeah, refs are going to err on the side of caution when a QB gets hit in the head, it just is what it is. The ref in the booth can say it's ticky-tack or not a foul at all, but he's not subject to reprimand or dismissal by the league if he's not towing the company line when it comes to their agendae.

Allen tucked the ball and ducked down, at that point even the anouncers said he should have been deemed a ball carrier

Also, correct me if i'm wrong but roughing the passer would typically be hitting him multiple seconds after he no longer has the ball correct?

So Gabby was a rusher every time he turned turtle in the face of a collapsing pocket? Unless the QB is making a concerted effort to run, I'd be extremely skeptical that any ref is going to default to deeming the QB a rusher. That's not the way the league rolls these days. QBs are no longer the trophy, as Namath famously said. They're the Ming vase that cannot be touched.

Roughing is either late hit, diving at knees, blow to head, or leading with the hat to make contact, from my experience.
