Exactly right. There was already rules on the books about spearing and such. If they wanted to make this a new thing then that is ok...BUT it should have been written that if the ejection is reversed then so is the penalty.Po Monkey Lounger wrote:This rule should/ will likely be removed after this season. Just go back to assessing personal foul penalties if warranted, or ejections if warranted, under the previous rules. Instead, they are throwing flags on hits that clearly are not intentional helmet to helmet ( eg spearing), that don't even warrant a penalty, but are just good hard nosed football, and then automatically reviewing them only to see if an ejection is warranted. Ridiculous.
