  The referee needs glasses! Task: Find the Official Playing Rules of the NFL (available online) and locate the rule titled “Roughing the Passer.”  View the linked video of a play from the December 22, 2011 Texans-Colts game  and explain to Professor Balsam why or why not the Texans’ hit on the Colts quarterback violates any provision of the rule prohibiting roughing the passer. Do a good job and receive a card. Resources: Texans-Colts game
