Was there a timeout called right after that play ended? Because if so then you can take your helmet off on the field. I have also seen that the refs are lenient at times for guys with golden locks that need to be readjusted under the helmet.

The only reasonable explenation I can think off is that there was something wrong with his helmet.

There's no sane reason besides that to just throw of your helmet mid-play like that.

This is pure speculation, but maybe his helmet got turned sideways and blocked his vision after Loadholt got in his face. It happened a few times yesterday.

Like I said, though, I didn't see what happend in its entirety. Maybe someone else had a better look at it.

It wasn't on the facemask play...he disenganged from the line and was running to the middle of the field to chase down the play.

It appeared that his helmet was sliding off/blocking his vision...but he was still lucky to get away with a penalty. Though I'll admit, it looked pretty bad ass having him whip that thing off and chase down the play :thumbleft:

He'd been getting facemasked all night. Looked to me like it had been twisted (again!) and he yanked it off because he couldn't see.

That's how a man acts, right there...

It wasn't on THAT facemask play, but he got chokeholded and facemasked multiple times, so it could've been a possibility that that was the reason for his helmet blocking his vision.

Like I said, more speculation than anything else.

It's about time the Packers have a little luck on their side.

AP did same thing in Minny a few years ago..

so if Viking fans want to bitch about Clay then they need to bitch about AP's helmet toss

We were lucky to not get a call on it, and Minnesota were probably lucky for not getting an illegal hands to the face or facemask or holding on Matthews. It looked like it had been pulled half way off and Matthews said, "fuck it" and just popped it off.
