Can you be flagged for not completing an NCOER as a Rater in the Army?

Technically you can be flagged for not completing an NCOER as a Rater, if you are an NCO in the US Army and have other NCO's under you it is your responsibility to conduct the proper measures to ensure your junior NCO's have the same opportunities for potential success in the Army as you have had. The only way you would be flagged would be by UCMJ for either actions unbecoming of an NCO or failure to preform duties as an NCO. In my personal opinion and if you were in my platoon, company or battalion and under me I would make sure that you yourself would find a swift demotion in your near future because you are a perfect example of a poor NCO, do you expect your NCOER to be done on time, if its not how will it effect your potential professional growth suffer.
