Of course. It's just like if someone gets fouled in the last few seconds of a playoff basketball game. Refs are supposed to swallow their whistles, right?
Look, I agree. It's football. If the guy isn't trying to knock his head off, who cares? Hold on to the flag. But it's hard to blame the ref for making an automatic call. It's not like the defender didn't know he couldn't hit the quarterback in the face. Shouldn't you be saying?: "You don't hit the quarterback in the face in that situation. That was just stupid."
