TC in St. Louis Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Andrew Luck's touchdown was questionable, not reviewed. He lost possession, and maybe it didn't even cross the line. Later, an obvious catch by the Jags receiver was overturned. Horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brenty Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 how is it not reviewable... every touchdown is reviewed upstairs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 how is it not reviewable... every touchdown is reviewed upstairs I didn't see the play but while every td is reviewed - not every aspect of the play can be reviewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 how is it not reviewable... every touchdown is reviewed upstairs Apparently it was reviewed but they didn't see evidence to overturn. Looked like total BS to me as did the long reception that was called back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalScotts Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 okay I wondered if I was the only one seeing things tilted in Indy's favor....the officials have been brutal tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section122 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Or the roughing the qb on his int. I hate when it's clear like this but golden boy vs lowly scrub team it's to be expected. (sound familiar?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Wow, that was a textbook block by Blackmon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogblitz Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Yeah I too hate this about NFL officiating that the golden boys get the calls. If they're so damn good, why do they need help? The Blackmon block penalty and the roughing the QB were ridiculous calls. The TD by Luck was a typical Big Ben style TD where if he gets inside the 1 they just give it to him. And since when if a guy gets two feet down in bounds and makes a football move and steps out of bounds and then the ball comes out is it not a catch? At least the replacement refs didn't play this favoritism BS and just screwed up for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. WEO Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Wow, Luck is already a "Golden Boy"? You guys are too much. There is no way these calls prevented the Jags from winning this game. They are simply awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC in St. Louis Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 Not saying the Jags would have won. But the refs made some crazy calls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Wow, Luck is already a "Golden Boy"? You guys are too much. There is no way these calls prevented the Jags from winning this game. They are simply awful. Not the point. The fact is the "stories" are what gets pushed by the league. The Saints win after Katrina? The Patriots* win after 9/11? The league needs a new poster boy at QB with Manning and Brady nearing retirement age, and are now pushing Luck. The replacement refs were impartial. I maintain that the "real" refs are not (and have been saying that for years). Pats* record with replacements: 1-2 Pats* record with "real" refs: 4-1 Packers record with replacements: 1-2 Packers record with "real" refs: 5-1 Odd, no?

ALF Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 They need to review that great catch ruled a fumble. They are going to get a better draft pick, but I did feel bad for Mularkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tu-Toned Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 The NFL is a business, Luck is a Prodcut for that business to sell, so a lot rides on it for him to be successful. I will leave it at that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I maintain that the "real" refs are not (and have been saying that for years). Pats* record with replacements: 1-2 -- 2 BAD calls cost Pats the games with IMPARTIAL refs Pats be 3-0 (replacements HATed the Pats) Pats* record with "real" refs: 4-1 -- Look who we have faced who would beat us in that GROUP? Packers record with replacements: 1-2 -- should be 2-1 or are you one that believes that BOGUS call against the Hawks was right? Packers record with "real" refs: 5-1 Odd, no? See if anything those 2 teams got hosed by the replacement refs THREE TIMES... maybe 4 but I do not see many Packer games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I don't understand this thread at all. These are the regular refs, they saved football from the horrors of the other refs; clearly they can do no wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatsFanNH Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 That's funny, coming from a Pats* fan. I am NOT complaining about them, they are what they are, but I was just pointing out fans of Pats and Packers can say the Replacement refs HATED their team and were biased... Also you have to know as someone else stated this is a business and they want keep their top money makers on the field and the refs know this.. so the top tier QB's will get almost EVERY call.

Ok, so you admit that the "real" refs are biased? I don't think we have an argument then. The replacements didn't hate any one specific team - according to the media, they sucked across the board. (I disagree - a few questionable calls, sure, but it's just an outrage because they went against the supposed "star" teams). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
