gjv001 Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 I would have thought another referee would have been watching the tackle made by Milano, and seen that there wasn't a facemask penalty. 1
JimKellyTryouts Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) ...the one where the nearly twisted Conner's face off? Definitely a flag Edit: seems like a misunderstanding where OP is mentioning the laughable call on Edmunds right before their red zone fumble; definitely lolworthy Edited December 16, 2019 by JimKellyTryouts 12 1 1

No worries. The refs made it up with a bunch of calls that were even worse! 1 2 1
Klapaucius Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 At the end of the game, that looked like a face mask to me. I think it was Edmunds before half that got called for the phantom face mask. 16
TroutDog Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Look at the Cowboys a couple weeks ago: they lost the game due to poor officiating. Thankfully this didn’t matter. The fact is, bad calls are going to happen and the team has to overcome them. 2

You mean the one where he had a hold of Conner's facemask and about ripped his damn head off? In what world was that NOT a penalty? If you think that wasn't a penalty, then you're being a homer, not being realistic. 5

This was penalty all the hand has to do is touch the facemask I had not problem with this penalty the one early vs Edmunds and then they revised to say Johnson was a joke.

sherpa Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Agree. Milano was a totally legit call, and Edmonds was horrible. One of the things I think needs to start getting some consideration is the gross attempts to punch the ball out and trigger a fumble. The Watt attempt on Josh at the end of the game was not a football move. It was a right hook aimed at his midsection. Any other play it's a personal foul and disqualification. I think it's time they reeled this stuff in. 7

As I mentioned in another thread, there was an obvious hands to the face by a Bills D man on Duck's last duck int that wasn't called. Usually, these things even out...
HOUSE Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Normally I ref will not make the call unless he has clear view which he didn't One of the worst calls in decent memory. I am sure McD will ask the NFL for an explanation.

I think it's time they reeled this stuff in. I was thinking the same thing.. but tried not to overact. The move was literally a punch, as opposed to ripping the ball out, that mostly missed the ball Edited December 16, 2019 by BfloBillsFan

In a league that has taken the stance of player safety and protecting defenseless players, this should start being enforced as an unnecessary roughness penalty. Try to rip the ball out all you want, but I'm not gonna ok all out punches that may injure players.
Doc Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 There is no reason facemask can't be reviewed. It's not a judgment call whatsoever. 2 1

I think it was Edmunds before half that got called for the phantom face mask. right and neither him nor 29 whom they ended up changing the call on after commercial break had hand on mask. Edmunds hand was way under the mask and 29 hit him in back shoulder area. This group called some really bad penalties like the block in back called from far right side on Dawkins on a screen out to left sideline

Definitely a flag While it is a flag he definitely didnt twist conners facemask. He put his hand on it but never even grabbed it... Conner did some excellent acting. Either way its a penalty but he never even grabbed the facemask... hand just landed on it
Talley56 Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Not to get completely off topic but our last run play before the Steelers’ last drive the Bills were called for a holding penalty but it got declined. The clock stopped due to the holding, giving the Steelers more time on their last drive, but since the penalty was declined I would have thought the clock would have kept rolling as if the penalty didn’t happen because, since it was declined, it kind of really did never happen. I may be wrong and I can try to look the rule up but anyone know off the top of their head?
