I'm kind of disappointed in Wagner. He has been flagged for that before, and that 15-yard penalty could have completely changed the complexion of the game.

Still an amazing player though. I love seeing a future HOFer in his prime.

We lost three points after the Vikings player hitbSimmons and we got the 15yard and had to punt.

I honestly thought it was debatable. Wagner only used his arms after already levitating

Its a 15-yard penalty, which would have given them a first down deep in Seahawks territory in a 6-0 (at the time) game, so yeah, it was a huge no-call.

I agree. He didn't really gain any advantage from touching the players as he was already in the air before he touched anybody. And I believe that is how the officials saw it also

We did get lucky. He both touched an opposing player and boosted himself on his own players. With the score 6-0 at that point it was a big play.

But I'll take it with the other calls in the game that went against us!! The "hands in the face opening" against Wagner was complete BS and what the heck is that anyway. Also, the phantom unsportsmanlike penalty against us that took us out of FG range was complete BS as well. So, karma just evened the game out.

They said it was a judgment call and those cannot be challenged.

He was in violation of the rule.

Got away with one.

That's football.

That's life.

At least life at its best...

Refs were so consistently bad today. That should be the headline.

Yes. He was already on his way up, free barely touched his own players. But I think his left foot barely grazed a Viking.

Judgment call though. The reason he got air was because of his athleticism. And his foot grazing another player didn't effect that players movement in any way.

So, debatable.

Just heard on the KIRO post game show it was deemed legal because he was on the line of scrimmage.

That's some CTA by the refs if it's coming from them.

Truth is they missed it.

And we'll take it.

if he's on the line of scrimmage, is it legal?

i also dont see him getting any height from his hands on their back. balance at best.
