"THROW THE FLAG!"

During Mike Tomlin's press conference yesterday he was asked if there was anything he can do about Ben not getting protected and his response was “No because I don’t have a flag.”

First off, great response. Second, I got to thinking, wait, he does have a flag. I would love after the next head-shot/late-hit/dirty play on Ben for Tomlin to throw the challenge flag. I fully realize there's nothing to be reviewed, but even if he can make something up on the play it'd force the Ref to go into a booth and stare at their missed call for 30 or seconds. At the same time it would make the announcers talk about it, the people at home watch it over and over, and maybe, just maybe, someone in the league office could realize that this happens every freakin week... Just a thought.

First time poster here so sorry for the rambling. This is just an issue that gets my blood boiling...
