Pitt vs NC thread (aka how will Pitt blow the 10 point lead and allow NC to score 28 unanswered points.)

He's not supposed to go into the tackle with the crown of his helmet leading the way.

I mean you understand that the rule is that forceable contact with the crown of your helmet is targeting, and Kancey hit him on the helmet with the crown of his helmet, right?

They could use that play to show officials, if that happens it's a penalty. Except it was so obviously one that it wouldn't be of much use in that scenario.
I also understand when a DL is chasing down a running play -
When they are diving for a tackle their crown isn’t up.
It’s a stupid rule on a runner within the tackles - from behind

launch into him face on? Absolutely

the context of the runner and direction of the tackle should matter
 
Well Slovis looks good today, but blocking awful again

Winning at the half on the road, very good
He hasn’t always been accurate: Some passes are a bit behind his receivers and some were overthrown, but most are close enough that his receivers should still be able to make the catch.

I’m more impressed about seeing him throw more passes down field and seeing him look confidence again (like he did in the WC and Tennessee game). I am also liking how he is getting the ball out a little faster. North Carolina’s DBs aren’t looking all that good- Pitt needs to keep taking advantage of that weakness.

Yes but why did we completely abandon what was working with that drive with about 3 left? I don't understand the play calling sometimes.
 
It will be a miracle if Pitt can overcome their own self inflicted would and the royal screw job the Pitt is getting from the ACC officiating crew....as per ususal, unfortunately. What the Hell is Kancy supposed to do chasing a guy down from behind, he started flying in to tackle the guy conucrrently with their QB hitting the deck. Can Kancy realistically stop himself in mid air?
