Did the Refs get the call right.

I think it was the right call. But it kind of seemed like the refs couldn't make up their mind whether to call it or not, that's what was messed up.

no brainer call, it was frequent, he was pulling the mask sideways like pissed off at himself for pispour kick

That is very true. I actually Think that all kickers and punters and even QBs should do some tackling drills. Just for their own saftey.
Because at full speed, things are happening so fast but its is easier to react to soemething with atleast some training.

Not all kickers, last year Mcafee got drug tested after the hit he put on a returner!

My favorite part of the article:

"Yeah. It wasn't very pretty. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie said he'd never played in a game and felt so helpless against a quarterback. "Not like that, just to have somebody just do what they want to do to you at will and we have no answers for it, don't stop it," the cornerback said. "I can't explain that. I don't know what happened."

Only the person fumbling the ball can advance it when fumbled in the last 2:00 minutes. The recovery counted but not the advance of the ball. The face mask penalty is applied from the spot of the fumble. A very long winded: YES!

Hagan,

I'm sure you know that rule was put in place because of a very specific play: the Raiders Holy Roller:
