I'm not confused between saftey and rules knowledge. While I don't necessarily agree with Theisey, I understand his point. My point was with the
BBW, if he deems that it was a saftey then that's his judgement and with a BBW he can't get into much trouble making that call. Contact with the top of a opponents helmet is not even close to BBW. Besides touching the facemask does not constitute a penalty. Grasping does 5 yards, twisting, turning or pulling 15 yards.
