question about Dez Bryant

I have a question.......after the overturned call, Bryant walked onto the field to complain, with no helmet on. Isn't that a penalty?
He has done this before, and never gets a penalty for it.
It's the coaches job to lobby on calls, yet this guy does it and there are no consequences for it.
Am I wrong on this?
I'm seriously asking.

There could be a penalty for coming on the field and arguing with the officials but it has to be really extreme before they call a penalty for that.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Against the Packers on that play, I don't mind that one as he was actively involved in that play, heck even if one ofor the players on the field did it, I would be find with it, but the refs should not have to deal with players on the sidelines arguing calls right up in their face unless they are right on in that sideline maybe then.

This is not a aberration, it is a TEXAS thing. Everything is BIGGER in TEXAS, including EGOS and Self Promotion.

This helmet removal penalty/rule is known as the Emmitt Smith Rule. Smith loved his face on T.V. He would yank off his helmet after scoring a touchdown to rile up (or taunt) the crowd.. But more importantly.. To get a better photo opportunities. The N.F.L. put an end to Emmit's showmanship and created a rule that no player is allowed to remove his helmet on the field during the game (except during timeouts and between quarters)

Zero2Cool (1h) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (20h) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

beast (28-Apr) : T.O. son signs with the 49ers

Mucky Tundra (28-Apr) : damn those vikings

beast (27-Apr) : Reportedly Packers have UDFAs Jennings and Jones

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : Z, could you please combine my thread with yours please. I obviously did not see it when I Created it
