No roughing the passer called...b/c Big Ben is not Brady or Manning.

Or because it wasn't roughing...

blow to the head of a QB...making somebody's face a picasso painting w/ your arm counts as a blow to the head, I'm pretty sure.

Or, you know, it wasn't called because nobody saw it. It happened pretty quickly. Should it have been a penalty? Yes. Was it not called because Big Ben isn't necessarily one of the most talked about QB's in the league? Not necessarily.

While I agree with every single part of this...it does seem that some players get different treatment than others...Brady and Manning are more protected, Harrison is more scrutinized, etc....it's call the "human element"...I never actually claimed anything was wrong with it...just is what it is.
