          The Baltimore Ravens' Justin Tucker is extremely upset that a second flag wasn't thrown after one of his fellow kickers took a shot to the knee.

          Near the end of the first half of Monday Night Football, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman jumped offside on a field-goal attempt and launched into the lower body of Buffalo Bills kicker Dan Carpenter long after the penalty. Not only did the officials not throw another flag, they announced Carpenter had to leave the field after being attended by medical staff.

          An incensed Tucker voiced his displeasure on Twitter:

          NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino tweeted that Sherman should have been called for unnecessary roughness in addition to offside.
