Except the play wasn't dead, and the kicker moves into Sherman. Sherms path is set before the kicker starts to move...

It's still roughing.

ROUGHING/RUNNING INTO THE KICKER

No defensive player may run into or rough a kicker who kicks from behind the line unless such contact:

is incidental to and occurs after the defender has touched the kick in flight
is caused by the kicker’s own motions
occurs during a quick kick or a rugby-style kick
occurs during or after a run behind the line
occurs after the kicker recovers a loose ball on the ground
occurs because a defender is pushed or blocked (causing a change of direction) into the kicker
is the result of a foul by an opponent

have you watched football before this year? that is a completely wrong interpretation of that line.


CharlestheHammer posted:

The sheer act of trying to kick the football does not count or roughing would be impossible outside of hitting a dude with a chair.

Yes.

That's not what the rules said. By the rules, its just offsides, but by all means continue to be mad.
