Danieal Manning Commits Dumbest Penalty In NFL History............
I know this should go in the Rivals Forum but I just had to put it here to begin with. After you watch it you'll be glad this didn't happen here. I'll set the scene.
Pittsburgh is attemtping a 30 yard FG at the end of the 1st half with 7 seconds left and Houston up 10 zip. Manning breaks through and blocks the kick and Jonathan Joseph picks picks it up at the 39 yard line and races 61 yards untouched for the score putting the Texans up 17-0 at the half...............wrong. Watch!

Danieal Manning commits one of the worst penalties you’ll ever see
By MJD
It turned out that the Texans were able to survive it, but just at the end of the first half, a Danieal Manning(notes) penalty erased a Texans touchdown from the scoreboard.
What was it that earned Manning the punitive yellow fabric? Well, he apparently felt like kicker Shaun Suisham(notes) was a threat to chase down cornerback Johnathan Joseph(notes). So he blocked Suisham in the back.
And that's how you make seven points disappear. You act like the athleticism of Shaun Suisham is something that needs to be addressed.
