He was monitoring the situation, quite trying to be hands-off, but he was certainly trying to get Woolen out of there.
Did not want him to get a foul, but Woolen just kind of sat there and went almost into the Rams bench and deservedly got a flag for that.
And the amusing thing is that professional taunter Mike Florio put an article out today about that taunting is not consistently called in the NFL.
And I would argue that they do a really good job calling taunting for the most part.
They give players the opportunity to celebrate, but you cannot go into the bench of the opposing team and basically take on the entire team.
And that's... what he ended up doing, and that's why he got a flag deservedly.
But in the end, you have to keep that from occurring because if you let that go and then the Rams retaliate, then you have something on the other side that you have to deal with and all hell can break loose.
It's a flag I'm sure he didn't want to throw, but he needed to throw it in that case.

And then what you say is then the Rams player that in their hypothetical winds up getting the flag.

And he's like, you know, this all kind of this pot was stirred and and there was no flag on that side.

So, again, I kind of understand with the, you know, the flag coming out and, you know, really trying to make sure because you're putting them one foot out of the game if they pick up a second one.

Um, and, and I think we also saw another situation in that game where I believe it was after a sack, but there was some defensive celebrating, but it was not in the face of, of the opponent.

And yeah, and, uh, and maybe, uh, well, maybe Florio's got one, uh, one towards the ejection for his taunting, but, uh, we'll go on, we'll go on and take a look at what Cam has for this week.
