Sometimes flags are thrown on quasi mundane infractions. Other times, the penalty could be blatant right in from of the ref and nothing. This is the insanity of the NFL.

There is no real form or structure to the flags. Can't tell you how many times the past few years I was left with a furrowed brow trying to make sense out of it. When a player can run on the field without a helmet and not get flagged you really have to start considering something else is going on behind the curtain. The ability to penalize a team on any given play, or not, even when there is a blatant infraction certainly leaves the possibility wide open.
