In the first quarter of Monday night’s tilt between the Las Vegas Raiders and the Green Bay Packers, Peyton and Eli Manning tackled one of life’s greatest mysteries during their alternate broadcast of the game.
Packers lineman’s hilarious flop catches the wrath of Peyton and Eli Manning
Say what you want about the penalty, but this is perfect form
Mark Schofield is a former college quarterback and attorney covering the NFL and F1.
“Are offensive lineman allowed to flop?”
Late in the first quarter the Packers had their offense on the field, and at the end of a run by AJ Dillon Raiders pass rusher Maxx Crosby was flagged for a personal foul. His infraction? A shove on offensive lineman Zach Tom just after the whistle blew.
You can judge for yourself whether this was worth a personal foul or not, but you’ll be able to tell where Peyton and Eli stand
While you might take offense with Tom’s flop here, you cannot find fault with his form.
This is textbook:
Man down.
The penalty gave the Packers a fresh set of downs, and they finished off the possession with a field goal to take an early 3-0 lead on the road.
Whatever works.
