I was watching on Redzone so I missed a lot, but from what I saw the pass rush was basic and all about collapsing the pocket, not freeing up defenders to get to the QB. No twists, stunts etc. JDR has 0 innovation.
Bad call and a bad rule.

He didn't drive him to the ground or land on him with his full weight. It was as clean as it gets.

These calls need to be reviewable or NY should buzz in and say pick that shit up.
