DQW87 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Calls like that go unnoticed by the general public, but change the outcome of games. They happen all the time, generally in the favor of who the NFL wants to win. 1 1

34-78-83 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) The call 100% cost us a chance at a 52 TD fg to win the game. My entire family and I are beside ourselves. Ford hit him on the front shoulder. Edited January 5, 2020 by 34-78-83 2
Greatdane21 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I’m quite sure the league will not use that play to illustrate an illegal block! that is not the intent of the rule Ford barely hit him. you do not make that call in a championship game! 3

Clock read zero I didn't see that, but the clock reaching zero doesn't mean it is delay of game. It's usually a second after. If you snap it when it reads zero it's never called. 1 minute ago, Greatdane21 said: I’m quite sure the league will not use that play to illustrate an illegal block! that is not the intent of the rule Ford barely hit him. you do not make that call in a championship game! Intent of the rule? The rule has nothing to do with intent, only actions. His action was illegal.
Beast Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 It really was a bad call but the Bills would have punted anyway.

Augie Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Pretty much face mask to face mask. No penalty there. Don’t count on refs to get it right so you can win. 1

The whole 2 he pregame was about JJ. NO holding on the 3rd & 18. Ridiculous There were some egregious holding penalties on Jerry Hughes, that weren’t called. But the Holy Watt family has bestowed their greatness upon the league yet again... Let no team tear apart what JJ and TJ have wrought!!
Ethan in Cleveland Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Just now, MJS said: Well, the call was a blind side block, wasn't it? Yes, it has nothing to do with whether the defender sees it or not. You can't block toward your endzone. That is the rule. 1
VirginiaMike Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 That was a BS call and Booger is BS for supporting it. 2 1
Lurker Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 It was the correct call. What 's so frustrating is that it was totally unnecessary...

B-Large Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 That guy he blocked was out of the play, until he ran down the QB and stripped the ball... The NFL is garbage... 2 1
