chef4131 Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Bridgewater clearly throws the ball away while standing in endzone (ball actually hit out of bounds) NO FLAG. Wish the Refs were more consistent announcer even commented "wonder what Orton thinks of that no-call"
zow2 Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 that was awful. it was way more egregious than the Orton grounding.
NoSaint Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Didn't someone else note Wilson being flagged for one today
26CornerBlitz Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 The refs in the SEA-KC game called intentional grounding on Russell Wilson on a mix up between him and his receiver. There's no consistency from crew to crew on this call.
NDBUFFCUSEFAN Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Rename the thread "Post here whenever QBs throw the ball out of bounds" this way we can limit the stupidity of rating every bad pass to one area.
NoSaint Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 The refs in the SEA-KC game called intentional grounding on Russell Wilson on a mix up between him and his receiver. There's no consistency from crew to crew on this call. I'd be curious on a broader sample if it's no consistency, or just minor inconsistency on the outer edge
BADOLBILZ Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Bridgewater clearly throws the ball away while standing in endzone (ball actually hit out of bounds) NO FLAG. Wish the Refs were more consistent announcer even commented "wonder what Orton thinks of that no-call" The Orton throw landed only about 4 yards away from Sammy. Carey greatly embellished that description. Terrible call but the Bills should have been up by two TD's and never put themselves in that position. I'm not a fan of these grounding calls, if the opposing QB want's to give up a play as early as Orton.....or in todays game the IG on Russell Wilson....I say that's a win for the defense in itself. Now if the guy chucks it away as he's running for his life it's a different matter.
Mr. WEO Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 The refs in the SEA-KC game called intentional grounding on Russell Wilson on a mix up between him and his receiver. There's no consistency from crew to crew on this call. Rule says it doesn't matter.
26CornerBlitz Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Rule says it doesn't matter. Irrespective of the "rule", there is no consistency.
Best Player Available Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Irrespective of the "rule", there is no consistency. Not true, they will flag the Bills consistently on that play.
racecitybills Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 If you watch the Orton replay you will see when the ball left his hand Sammy had not even made his break- not even close to grounding- "all scoring plays are reviewed"--nope--
26CornerBlitz Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Not true, they will flag the Bills consistently on that play. Yeah, WTH Am I thinking?
MattM Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Eli heaved one up in the Giants game while facing backwards and being driven to the turf--no flag. Gimme a *%#*}{ng break....
Saratoga Leo Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 I saw that Manning throw also. There is no doubt it was grounding.
Charles Romes Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Bills got snot beat beat out of them the last 20 minutes against the dolphins. If they were more competitive the calls would not have been so one sided.
Doc Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Rule says it doesn't matter. Sure it does. If a receiver is in the area, it's not grounding.
YoloinOhio Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Bills got snot beat beat out of them the last 20 minutes against the dolphins. If they were more competitive the calls would not have been so one sided. this makes no sense.
Mr. WEO Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Sure it does. If a receiver is in the area, it's not grounding. No one is arguing that doc. The point was made that the flag was thrown on Wilson but his receiver ran the wrong route. Rule says it doesn't matter if there is miscommunication between QB and WR.

Rule says it doesn't matter if there is miscommunication between QB and WR. We know the rule. The point is the inconsistent enforcement of it.
