What a bunch of sh--. Smith was annihilated and they said Baker shoved him into him? I couldnt believe it.

 

The second one was when they didnt reset the play clock for us and called the delay....then had the gall to reset it later on in a play for Cinci instead of calling the delay. :doh:

The One that was called on Baker was a complete joke....The guy lowered his shoulder into F.Smith...If he was pushed he shoulda tried to lay up....not bury the returner...

 

The REFs are a joke :I starred in Brokeback Mountain:

I think we got it back (and then some) when Takeo threw RudiJ on the ground when the ball was in the air, then took it to the house. :doh:

The ref's gave one back, when they called B'gals #40 (Madeiu Williams) for a block in the back on a Cincy return. The replay after the call showed Williams taking the hit, not giving it - unless it was something that occured previously.

It is perfectly legal behind the line.

 

I don't think it is if the ball is in the air and hasn't been tipped. If he'd have thrown him down before the ball left Kitna's hands, then I think it's perfectly legal. But once the forward pass is thrown, he becomes a receiver and it's hands off unless it's tipped.

When the Bengal's player hit Freddie, he gave a look like "I can't believe I just did that!" He didn't think he was pushed either!

The guy that ran into Freddie on that play knew that it was a penalty also, you saw it in his body language after the hit happened. Totally screwed up a poentially good drive start.

No, it's legal. I remember a similar play in the 90s where Talley did pretty much the same thing. One of the post-game articles says that it's legal behind the line as well.

 

EDIT:

Spikes admitted to pushing down Johnson, Kitna’s intended receiver ( “Rudi didn't feel me behind him”), and he could push because anything goes in the backfield.

If someone wants to buy me the official NFL rulebook, I'll compensate them with all 8 Bills DVDs that I have... :devil:
