PromoTheRobot Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) More evidence that the officials were either absurdly incompetent or deliberately screwing the Bills. This photo shows CJ Anderson was sitting on the field with the ball inches short of the goal line. It should have been 4th and inches, not a TD. Fist bump, indeed. They said the reviewed it but they didn't look real hard. Edited December 8, 2014 by PromoTheRobot
GunnerBill Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 I know.... the officials yesterday were either cheating or are horribly incompetent. They should be suspended either way. We have actually started demoting referees for a week at a time to the minor leagues in soccer over here if they have pathetic displays like the one that crew had yesterday.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 Hand down doesn't mean anything. It's the elbow. Knee down? There's no way anyone can definitively tell if it is in that obstructed photo.
NoSaint Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 Absurdly incompetent from that photo? You do realize they have to make the call real time and I'm not even sure that photo is definitive

Kelly the Dog Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 That photo is not definitive. You cannot see the knee. He wasn't in. It wasn't a TD. It was a hair short. But you cannot use two different replays to prove it. That's not allowed. So even though you could prove he wasn't by two different replays, the officials are not allowed to overturn it. You can't blame them for that, and you can't really blame them for missing the call by an inch in real time when it looked like he snuck through.
PromoTheRobot Posted December 8, 2014 Author Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) Absurdly incompetent from that photo? You do realize they have to make the call real time and I'm not even sure that photo is definitive So are saying he definitely looked to be in? You can see both his feet. One is perfectly horizontal on the ground. Look at the position he is in. His butt has to be on the ground there, unless he's made of rubber. Edited December 8, 2014 by PromoTheRobot
Peter Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 Absurdly incompetent from that photo? You do realize they have to make the call real time and I'm not even sure that photo is definitive Wasn't reviewed? Even the guys in NYC got it wrong.
NoSaint Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 So are saying he definitely looked to be in? You can see both his feet. One is perfectly horizontal on the ground. Look at the position he is in. His butt has to be on the ground there, unless he's made of rubber. The burden of proof there is that he must be proven out and again it's called full speed
Campy Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 Just my take: It was called a TD on the field and that photo shows nothing to justify overturning it.
PromoTheRobot Posted December 8, 2014 Author Posted December 8, 2014 He is sitting on the ground, elbow down, legs horizontal, with no sign of the ball crossing the goal line.
NoSaint Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) He is sitting on the ground, elbow down, legs horizontal, with no sign of the ball crossing the goal line. At worst for the ref he was fractions of in inch away if you slow it down to still frames which isn't how it works. I also don't know that the angle is great, the line is great or where the tip of the ball is... And Id have to judge full speed Edited December 8, 2014 by NoSaint
PromoTheRobot Posted December 8, 2014 Author Posted December 8, 2014 (edited) How many Bills TDs have been called back with less proof? You can see the goal line but you can't see the ball. Edited December 8, 2014 by PromoTheRobot
Mr. WEO Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 This is said to be Jesus photographed as he appeared on a tortilla:
NoSaint Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 How many Bills TDs have been called back with less proof? You can see the goal line but you can't see the ball. And we've never scored a close one either, right?
Kelly the Dog Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 This is said to be Jesus photographed as he appeared on a tortilla: After further review, call on the tortilla stands. He's back!! Looked at from a different angle, however, turning it sideways, it's the Loch Ness Monster looking in a mirror.
plenzmd1 Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 How many Bills TDs have been called back with less proof? You can see the goal line but you can't see the ball. How bout Sammys TD in the first Miami game? How bout the same thing on Leos TD in the Jets game. Both could reasonably have been called fumbles through the endzone... but both counted as TDs
