Mike Pereira ‏@MikePereira 1h1 hour ago In regards to Suggs, it isn't a foul. QB does not get protection running read-option or zone-read. Might be cheap but not a foul.

Funny...the commentators talked about hitting a QB in the pocket LOW is a foul. This isn't about the read option, this is the fact that you can not, ever, under any circumstances, running, throwing, even if the guy is ***** your wife...you CAN NOT HIT A QB BELOW THE KNEE, it is an instant 15 yard penalty and cheap as hell. Seriously? Have you not watched a game the past 5 years?

"No defensive player who has an unrestricted path to the quarterback may hit him flagrantly in the area of the knee(s) or below when approaching in any direction." It's in the NFL rule book, and this read option stuff of "He's a runner" watch the damn games, you hit a QB low you get flagged.
