I love taunting, It’s a very physical and dangerous game, there needs to be allowance for players to be naturally emotional. Whether it is anger, frustration, or celebration
I'm totally with you. Show what you feel if it's genuine. If it gets to where everyone is sitting around waiting on you, then I'll pass, but it's more because it starts to get corny. If it's authentic -- have at it!
I'll add one caveat. If taunting gets you punched in the face, then you should get tossed too for instigating. When it comes to my pro sports sensibilities, I like the 80's UM Hurricanes: Step 1. Tell them you are better than them. Step 2. Demonstrate being better than them. Step 3. Remind them of steps 1-2. 🤣🤣🤣
The NFL changed their ruling on celebrating a couple of years ago. They're allowed to celebrate now. But there is some sort of rule that like it has to be directed towards the fans. You can't taunt the opponent.
Maybe someone can tell me why I’m wrong, but I’m a lifelong NFL fan and I think most taunting and celebration calls are lame. As long as it’s not disrupting the game I think calling penalties for it is bullshit and gives refs too much power to sway the game for no real reason.
No your right 99% of them are stupid. Something like the waving at a guy while the play is going on makes sense but anything after you score unless you ran over to the other teams bench is fine as far as I am concerned
As someone who has played sports, taunting leads to a more physical game, which causes fights. The NFL doesn't want that during their games for obvious reasons.
Let the boys play. People may think that TO and Randy Moss and dudes like that were disrespectful but they were certainly damn entertaining to watch play the game.
You guy’s didn’t quite catch that the first DeSean Jackson play where he fell into the end zone backward was when he played for the Eagles. The next clip of him was when he was playing for Washington against Philly and he did the eagle flap after scoring since they traded him.
No kidding. The argument is "well it might lead to fights" fucking so what? Every play you're literally in a suit of armor and going to battle against another massive man who is trying to throw you to the ground. What's the concern, a game of violence turns violent?
The taunting rule is super subjective and as such the calls can be really controversial. I don't think what was shown in this montage all got called for taunting. If so, there would be a taunting call (or two or three or four etc.) on every play of every game, against both offence, defense and special teams, and from the side lines, from the fans, and announcers and the mascots, maybe even the refs could get called!
The one time Jackson ran along the endzone wasn't just about taunting, he was making sure the clock ran as much as it could. He sees the clocks at zero and then he crosses the line.
I can tell you that most fans hate the taunting penalty. There have been some really questionable taunting calls that have messed up games in the eyes of fans.
Dave: "I wonder what fans think?" As an NFL fan, people watch the game because it is exciting. Taunting & Celebrations after a Touchdown... as a fan, I love it. It is fun to watch; that is why we are watching THIS compilation video. (sometimes it is the player throwing the touchdown ball to a fan in the stands - they get heavily fined for that). The referees and owners penalizing the players for doing it is hypocritical. The owners and advertisers are making MORE money off of having more eyes on the game, but they get to punish the players who worked so hard (endured pain to get there). The team owners: "OK, go do our bidding.... (but don't get too upitty - Know your place)." -- That's some bullsh:t! It ALSO gives the referees too much of a way to affect the outcome of a game. The player makes a great run (undeniable), but the referee calls it back 15 yards for "taunting" (Ref: "my opinion was that little move was taunting.")... Let BASEBALL keep all their sensitive prima donnas. THIS is football, you can hit each other; if you don't like it, run faster next time. (To be clear: I'm talking about Celebrations or Taunting (getting in the other player's head). I am absolutely AGAINST "late-hit" or some cheap shot like that.) If it doesn't physically hurt the other player, that is all part of the game. Gotta be physically AND mentally tough. These are the Pros. If a COACH wants to punish his own player for SHOWBOATING, that is a different story. If the coach wants to bench a player as punishment, that is fine. If that player's showboating lead to a fumble or a missed touchdown, that is the risk they are putting on their own team ((if successful, it might be a great mood-maker for the team // if they screw up, no one is going to forgive them)). That depends on the coach and his coaching style: some are strict drill instructors, some like to see their star players make big plays and motivate their teammates.
If you don’t want to be taunted… pretty easy… don’t get schooled. I didn’t see any taunts that were sooo egregious. Pretty tame. Try playing COD. Next you’re say running up the score is a problem with the winning team.
Almost every Football fan hates the taunting penalty. If they didn't hate it because it's already a ridiculous rule. Then they hate it because a taunting penalty, which is a 15 yard penalty, would be the equivalent of an Unecessary Roughness Penalty, a Facemask, or hitting a Defenseless Player. Which are more serious penalties because they can cause actual injuries.
@@ChannonLegier Compared to the previously stated penalties, taunting leading to serious injury is slim. Plus, you can't honestly tell me that taunting should cause offsetting penalties for a much more serious offense.
@@jerrypickins I'd rather them take out the rules against hitting QB's, Wide Receivers, etc.. than removing taunting penalties. Players get hit hard (but clean) in the game of play many times and pop right back up from it. I want every player on the field to be safe, but the game is designed for collisions. A lot of the _illegal_ hits are just unavoidable when two players are running full tilt to a spot. A lot are just BS calls (I am speaking about the QB here) that players exploit.Taunting however starts the BS where people start making unnecessary, illegal, and targeting hits (and fights) because of a grudge. Get that shit out of here.
@@aj897 Not saying it doesn't get old or annoying. Especially with players like Ramsey or Cox. If they want to keep the rule in, which I hope they don't, fine. However, change the penalty yardage to 5 yards. It's mind blowing how you can basically blow up someone's knees, and get a 15 yard penalty only for an offsetting penalty to cancel it out for making a rude hand gesture at another player.
I think they changed the rule back and you're allowed to taunt now (within reason). Too many fans were annoyed by the rule because they're giving somebody a penalty for what...potentially hurting another player's feelings? Absurd rule.
Not a fan of taunting but football is a hyper-emotional game so shit happens. When you play the game you are so full of adrenalin you some times make weird choices.
I think there's a line where some celebration of a great play or touchdown is fine, but blatant taunting especially when it goes on too long distracts from the game. It's all totally discretionary on the part of the refs of course and often they are hearing a lot of verbal taunting on the field that may result in throwing a quicker flag when someone scores and then starts pointing at the defensive player or whatever.
Taunting is never wrong. if you get away with it, you deserve to flex on the other team. If you fuck up, you look like a great fool and deserve all the mockery you'll get.
@@SonicMegaKing Nah, the players should be allowed to have fun but the game doesn't have to devolve to the same level of idiocy seen throughout the rest of culture. When players start viewing themselves as "entertainers" rather than competitors, the sport is over.
@@saintsataniko2116 They are entertainers. They play the sport to entertain other people. That's their job. Pretending it's some grander thing beyond that is delusional. It's something you're personally making up.
@@SonicMegaKing Haha! Yes "something [I'm] personally making up" that has existed for a 100 years! In fact the "entertainment" angle is recent. When you watch college football does anyone from the players, the coaches, or the casters call them "College Entertainers", or do they say "College Athletes." So the only delusion here comes from YOU assuming that you're not a dickbag.
7:48 There are fans in this country for decades that don't understand the game well. 😀 9:47 I used to be an NFL fan before a lot of the taunting. Sometimes emotions build & you have to say something to the guy that has been 'keying' on you all game. That to me isn't taunting. I don't think running across the goal backwards is either (of course it is meant that way). About the time that more players seemed to be practicing their back flips & dances more than the game plan, I pretty much gave up watching. Of course that year there was an NFL strike too. I hear the NFL rules now don't like the choreography after the touchdown either. But I have switched now to College ball. And it is starting to do the same thing. Real, blatant, taunting is a waste of time & should carry a penalty.
I think the only problem with taunting in the NFL compared to other sports is that the NFL is practically warrior combat where the game would constantly stop due to fights. Taunt, then reaction to taunt, then 100 people on the field trying to break it up, etc etc. Hockey handled it better, but I think the NFL is trying to avoid becoming what hockey was.
Your NFL reactions are my favorite! Maybe try the clueless Europeans guide to American football (I think that's the title) if you guys haven't already. It's good stuff.
Taunting is never wrong. if you get away with it, you deserve to flex on the other team. If you fuck up, you look like a great fool and deserve all the mockery you'll get. Either way is great spectator entertainment.
One of the reasons why taunting isn't allowed is because it leads to brawls, injuries, and delay of game. I'd rather not have the NFL turn into hockey. 😅
Don’t forget the people that make/edit these videos are bias. There are way worse taunts than these. 💯 For instance a few years ago the Tennessee Titans stood on the Ravens logo during a pregame huddle and the Coaches even got into a minor altercation the Titans eventually defeated the Ravens in the game. Exactly 1 year later the Baltimore Ravens played the Titans in the playoffs in Tennessee and there was a game winning interception for the Ravens to win the game the entire team ran to the middle of the field and celebrated on the Titans logo as a form of payback. They got fined obviously but the revenge had to have been worth it. The NFL has since put a clamp on premeditated team taunting based off that incident alone. These videos are a microcosm of how it really is.

Barry Sanders, said by many to be the RB GOAT, never celebrated, spiked the ball, or taunted. He was the most frustrated player in the entire NFL.
@@ChannonLegier ok, good for him. Taunting is still cool though
Fake sport

This was basically a highlight reel of Desean Jackson, lol

They keep it contained because it leads to fights or hunting.
They crack down on it cause it upsets the stuffy old white guys aka the owners lol
You can celebrate. As long as there is no physical or verbal abuse. They even put cameras on the field for players to celebrate in front of.
As someone who has played sports, taunting leads to a more physical game, which causes fights. The NFL doesn't want that during their games for obvious reasons.
Most NFL fans HATE the taunting penalties. We enjoy the taunting unless it's excessive or uncalled for.
Theres a line for taunting but alot of ppl complain when players celebrate. As if the players arent allowed to show emotion or enjoy what they do.
Yeah, massive difference.
Old school taunts, before they brought in the rule change, were awesome.
taunts were always illegal, it was celebrations that were illegal for a while but they got rid of that rule a long time ago because fans complained.
Let the boys play. People may think that TO and Randy Moss and dudes like that were disrespectful but they were certainly damn entertaining to watch play the game.
The Seattle Seahawks will be playing in Munich , Germany this year against Tampa Bay Buccaneers the 1st NFL game in Germany. I think it's in November.
The key and peele taunting episode is amazing 😂😂 y’all should check it out if you haven’t already
That punt return by Jackson where he paralleled the entire endzone wasn't taunting he was ensuring there were was no time left to end the game.
This is basically a DeSean Jackson compilation video😂
You guy’s didn’t quite catch that the first DeSean Jackson play where he fell into the end zone backward was when he played for the Eagles. The next clip of him was when he was playing for Washington against Philly and he did the eagle flap after scoring since they traded him.
More NFL STuff thanks guys! The channel “highlight reel” has some amazing videos !
3:21 Oddly enough Terrell Owens played for the Dallas Cowboys a few years after this happened.
Now they should do crazy celebrations.
I love taunting, within reason, as long as it doesn't hurt the team.
6:25 you guys could do an entire video on Cam Newton. He’s like that ALLL the time 😂
@3:00 I know you didn't ask but that 15 yards will be added on the kickoff after the score.
love the taunting, even if against my team!! glad they got rid of the TD celebration flag.
I like your videos on the nfl. It’s like a 1 eye guy explaining the world to a blind guy.
it's a physical grown man game. Love the taunting, don't like it? Stop the other team from embarrassing you.
No kidding. The argument is "well it might lead to fights" fucking so what? Every play you're literally in a suit of armor and going to battle against another massive man who is trying to throw you to the ground. What's the concern, a game of violence turns violent?

NFL's Best Best Sideline catches if you guys want to see next level athleticism and body control.
I love taunting and show boating. This is what we love about NFL football!
Well in baseball if you taunt or showboat. Someone will be hit by pitch immediately and then it gets wild.
Oh man, you guys are gonna have a field day with the XFL next year
The one time Jackson ran along the endzone wasn't just about taunting, he was making sure the clock ran as much as it could. He sees the clocks at zero and then he crosses the line.
I remember the punter getting reemed afterwards by his coach because he was told to not kick it to Jackson.
I hate taunting. Play the game, already.
When someone on my team taunts, it's just embarrassing. Either you can perform, or you can't.
I absolutely love taunting and think it needs to be taken out of the rulebook.
I can tell you that most fans hate the taunting penalty. There have been some really questionable taunting calls that have messed up games in the eyes of fans.
Deshaun Jackson was in this video so much lol
Hope they do a NFL mic'd up soon
Someone else didn't do it. Terrell did it twice that day, then went on to play for the Cowboys after the Eagles lol

You should do reactions to nfl top 100 players
im not sure if you have made this video but youtube banned it or something but you guys should react to an NFL greatest trick plays compilation
This is a rather new penalty. Many of these clips are older than the penalty.
You guys should definitely watch the Miracle at the New Meadowlands. Eagles vs Giants, it’s a great video to watch.
Play a game with the risk of life altering injuries, but don't you dare do a harmless taunt.
Hey guys love your reaction, you should react or watch 2 of the greatest Running backs Emmitt Smith and Payton. Loved your reaction on Sanders.
All unsportsmanlike conduct calls are 15 yards
100% of NFL fans HATE the taunting penalty
You guys would absolutely love the BMOnus's youtube vid Clueless European's Guide to the NFL, his commentary is hilarious
Mane yall need to please look at Reggie bush highlights from both college and the NFL.
You guys should really do a video of running back Walter Payton. That guy was unstoppable.
Why is this not called desean Jackson highlight compilation?
