The Baltimore Ravens were flagged for illegal formation a whopping five times in their season opener.
The officials weren't the reason the Baltiore Ravens lost Thursday's season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs, but they're still understandably not happy with how the game was called.
Specifically, the Ravens were flagged for illegal formation five times, while the Chiefs weren't flagged for it even once. Left tackle Ronnie Stanley, who had three of those penalties, even said after the game that he felt like the game wasn't being called evenly, as Chiefs right tackle Jawaan Taylor was seemingly lining up the same way yet didn't have a single illegal formation.
As the rest of Week 1 unfolded, the "point of emphasis" on illegal formation penalties seemed to fade away. According to Kevin Oestreicher of Ravens wire, the other 29 teams combined for just 15 illegal formation penalties in Week 1. Fans can and will do what they want with that information, but those are just the numbers.All that said, the Ravens do have a key piece of evidence they have yet to review: tracking data.
"That's public information, as far as I know. If it's not, I'm sure we'll get a memo from the league on that, so that's one of those ones that's black and white. You can look at that and know exactly where they're lined up, so you can know exactly whether it's being called consistently or not."
