I don't know, looks to me from this angle that the player got tired of being hit and decided to allow himself to be run over. He's not required to exert herculean efforts to hold his position.

I totally agree. I think he just did not try to hold his spot anymore and got run over more than anything. Did he embellish? Probably a little but it is not like AD is a small guy either.

It looks like a flop to me, but the camera has the wrong angle. The official had the perfect angle, so I am going to trust his call. He had good position.

I'm in the camp of did he embellish? Yes, but he doesn't have to allow himself to be bumped backwards forever, either. No problem with the PC.
