DENVER (AP) When his teammate was suspended for a second time last week for the kind of hits the NFL is trying to get rid of, Denver Broncos star safety Justin Simmons lamented the league lacked both consistency and clarity in its rules enforcement.Week 12 showed Simmons was spot on.In Buffalo's overtime lo s at Philadelphia, Bills quarterback Josh Allen was on both ends of some dubious decisions by referee Shawn Hochuli's crew.Allen, who has Cameron Jordan Jersey a after contact, did his best impre sion of a soccer player flopping on the pitch on the Bills' opening drive of overtime. It resulted in a on Philadelphia linebacker Nicholas Morrow, moving the ball well within field goal range.ADVERTISEMENT Earlier in the game, Eagles linebacker Haason Reddick got away with a when he corralled Allen outside the pocket and flung him violently to the ground for a sack."Josh Allen was out of the pocket, so there should Dylan Mabin Jersey have been a foul on this play, CBS rules analyst Gene Steratore said.In Sunday night's primetime slot, the Chargers were driving for a touchdown on their opening po se sion when scrambling Los Angeles quarterback by Baltimore Ravens safety Geno Stone and a yellow flag came out.Only, the penalty wasn't on Stone but on Chargers offensive lineman Jamaree Salyer, who came to his quarterback's defense and drew a 15-yard punishment. So, instead of first-and-goal from the 3, the Chargers faced third-and-19 from the 21 and they settled for a field goal in what would become a .After the game, pool reporter Joe Reedy of the A sociated Pre s asked referee Alan Eck why there was no penalty on Stone. Eck said it was a judgment call that Stone committed to and began the hit before Herbert was clearly out of bounds.So, the ruling on the field Chauncey Gardner-Johnson Jersey was that the quarterback was trying to gain yardage, Eck said. While he was still in bounds, the defender committed to the tackle. And as his foot landed out of bounds, the defender made contact. So, since the defender already committed to the tackle while the quarterback was in bounds, it was deemed a legal hit.Eck went on to say Salyers reaction was over the top."And in over the Cleveland Browns, Simmons' teammate, outside linebacker Baron Browning, was whistled for unnece sary roughne s on what looked to a lot of people like a of Dorian Thompson-Robinson even though it knocked Cleveland's rookie quarterback from the game with a concu sion.Browning didn't dip his head to hit with the crown of his helmet. He led with his shoulder, targeted the chest and didn't land on the quarterback. But when Thompson-Robinson crumbled to the gra s at his goal line, his lip bloody, an official ran over to check on him and only then did he throw the flag.I didnt think it was a dirty hit, but they called it, so what can I do, Browning said of the hit that knocked DTR from the game. We cant control everything, but we can control the response and we got a turnover."Its up for debate with some rules analysts Kenny Stills Jersey saying Browning came in too high and that his hit in stride could be construed as a launch but to many others, it appeared to be clean, the exact kind of tackle the NFL would show players during training camp as an example of how theyre supposed to hit.Instead of punting on fourth down, the Browns had a first down at their 38, although two plays later, backup QB P.J. Walker fumbled and Denver defensive tackle D.J. Jones recovered the loose ball at the Cleveland 20-yard line, setting up the Broncos' breakaway touchdown.Jackson, a veteran in his 14th NFL season, has been ejected twice, fined four times and suspended for six games this season over a series of illegal hits. When he returned from his first suspension he said he couldn't guarantee that his wallet or opponents wouldn't take more big hits because, he said, the league couldn't give him clear answers on how he was supposed to adjust his Erik Mccoy Jersey game to comply with the new safety rules.On his first tackle back, he hit left his feet and hit Vikings QB Joshua Dobbs with the crown of his helmet in the neck. Although the play wasn't flagged, the NFL suspended Jackson for four games the following day.Simmons and other teammates defended Jackson in interviews and on social media. And on Sunday in pregame warmups Denver's defensive backs .___AP NFL:
