Joe Flacco got obliterated on a slide with no flag.

I think QBs get the hair trigger flags in the pocket... but once they are moving and not named Patrick Mahomes, they don't get calls.

Lamar never gets calls... in or out of the pocket.
Yeah, by Kiko Alonso and his roid rage.
That was another with a history of semi-dirty hits. Pats used to see him twice a year and I'd always cross my fingers he didn't injure someone.

Joe Flacco got obliterated on a slide just like Lawrence

Lamar isn't exactly a slider.

He stiff armed a defender with his cleats this weekend.

If a runner slides and a defender still commits to the hit, it's no different from a late hit out of bounds.

The play is over the second the runner slides, their forward momentum doesn't count.

In an age where the NFL can get sued for literally billions if they are seen to allow needless concussions, it's a rule that's here to stay, like it or not.

NFL in a Nutshell
They love the violence, just not when against a QB/player they are invested in
Behind closed doors they are celebrating and laughing about the hit. To the public they have to feign concern about the players wellness. That one redskins VP lifted the veil on that when his video leaked.
