In response to "Matt Ryan just got a penalty for being upset at being hit in the head. -- nm" by Reagen

On that drive...

Matt was leg whipped for a sack.
Matt was hit in the head so hard his neck bent.
Matt scored a TD and was hit in the back afterward.

The refs ruled that Matt gave himself up on the play, which meant that any contact afterward should have been a 15-yard penalty for hitting an unprotected player.

Instead, they took the TD off the board, ruled him down, ignored the hit as if it didn't happen, and then added a 15-yard penalty for taunting.

In the first quarter, we stopped them on 4th down. They ignored a blatant pick on that play and flagged us for pass interference on an uncatchable ball.

The fix was in this game.
