Refs won't eject an OL who is protecting their QB from a late hit. Bozeman only got a flag and didn't even get fined for defending Herbert.
Also a more important question than who would replace Cody Ford at LT is who is going to replace Burrow at QB if he gets hurt because nobody on the offense is defending him. Whomever is closest needs to do it.
Oh, Ok.......
Quote:[color=var(--m3c11)]Yes, Andrew Whitworth was ejected from a Cincinnati Bengals game against the Oakland Raiders in 2012 after a fight with Raiders players:I'm not saying it should not have been done, just that our last tackle should not be the guy doing it.....
[/color]
- Incident: With 7:19 left in the fourth quarter, Raiders defensive end Lamarr Houston hit Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton to the ground. Whitworth confronted Houston, and the two engaged in a small headbutt. Other players joined the fight, and Whitworth, Houston, and Raiders defensive tackle Tommy Kelly were all ejected.
- Fines: Whitworth was fined $26,260 for his role in the incident.
- Whitworth's reaction: Whitworth said he expected to be fined, but he wasn't suspended. He also called some of the Raiders "cowards" and said he was more upset about being hit and gouged in the eyes by Raiders players
