Facemask Ejection?
« on: September 22, 2013, 11:53:37 AM »
We had a play where the defensive player not only facemasked the running back but yanked the helmet off and it went flying 7 yards.  Offensive coach demanded ejection. Penalty and ejection?

If you had a feeling he was throwing at some one, I would sure think about it.

No, he wasn't throwing at anyone. He just continued his motion and let it go after ripping the helmet off.

If it is judged to be a flagrant personal foul, then yes, disqualification.

In a game this year we had a D end grab the QB by the facemask. QB fumbled the ball and it was picked up by the D so I was running with them, but the R stayed with the QB and described it as this:
After the initial hit, the B player then set his feet with his arm extended (while holding the facemask) and pulled the QB around in a huge arch before slamming him almost head first to the ground.
This action was used to determine that the B player had removed himself from the competition.
