The taunting penalty in the National Football League has made the game unwatchable at times.

That penalty reered its ugly head on Monday Night when Raiders’ Darren Waller spiked the ball towards nobody after a play, but still got flagged for doing it in the general area of the Chargers.

Darren Waller was called for taunting for SPIKING the ball.

That is not taunting on Darren Waller. Another ridiculous call.

The only thing that Waller is taunting here is his own coaching staff.
