NFL Roughin the Passer
From the Bengals v Buccaneers game Sunday...

Did anyone see the play from this game when Bengal Smith tackled Buc Gradkowski for an apparent sack, only to have the R throw a flag for roughing the passer? Can anyone explain the rule in the NFL that allows for a roughing the passer flag when no pass is thrown? Is this simply a case of over preotecting the QB?
