That is what they said but I never saw that.

Agree. I didn’t clearly see that myself, but you had to see it clearly miss to reverse it and I didn’t see that either.

Yikes 49 is weather is certainly not a chip shot. 3rd down would have liked to see a run and either kick a more manageable FG. Or go for it on 4th and 3 or so.

Absolutely correct 👍

The same guy who says he doesn’t want to get hurt by blocking. He’s an unreal WR and had a spectacular catch today. But he’s incapable of having any accountability. This is part of the problem with Tomlin at this point. Grow up.. the world is hard you’re not a victim. Late calls went Bills way, couple early calls went against the Bills.

Yessir. But it’s not just Pickens. It’s the new generation in general. 
On Joshs post game on field interview he made 2 comments that stood out. He mentions AJ Klein being a contributor and saying shakirs play was the bigger one. He takes all the blame when he shouldn’t and gives all the credit when he shouldn’t. That’s not something that all players do. WRs like Pickens make me sick.

They thought the ball grazed the TEs helmet while he was out-of-bounds. Therefore, it’s OOB.

Thats what nantz said, but not the officials.  There was also an angle (that i think they only showed once on the broadcast) that seemed to show pretty clearly it didn't hit the helmet.

 

The thing that bugs me the most is they need to change the rules to just eliminate the stupid official from the review.  If the clown got it wrong on the field why is he even in the equation for the review.  Just go to an eye in the sky - 99% of the time people sitting on a couch can tell clearly from replays - just look at the replays and make the call - no need to have the idiot official who got it wrong standing there looking at a tiny little screen for 10 mins

It’s not that complicated. 😂 

 

The only question is whether it hit the TEs helmet or not.

Expand  

Did it?

This is false. The rule you are referring to is for receivers. Once the player has caught the ball he is no longer a receiver.

NFL Rule 8-1-8-b

thanks.

 

for some reason I thought that was a rule at all times.

Remember on the first blown call.. we get back from commercial greedland and Romo is explaining why it’s a fumble. But that wasn’t the call! The call was an incomplete pass. So if you’re explaining that IT’S DEFINITELY A FUMBLE, then it’s definitely a completed pass. 
 

I won’t say the refs were awful. I’m glad they didn’t go crazy with the whistle. But those too reviewed calls were so terrible. Always side on keeping the play alive, then allow for reviews. The refs did the complete opposite in both instances. And that’s little league stuff. 

Expand  

Fo add on, I’m in favor of unlimited challenges as long as you get it right. Sure, limit it to 2 lost challenges, but if a coach throws 10 flags and wins them all that’s on the officials/NFL, not the coach.

Does anyone truly understand why the Spector recovery did not count?   

Expand  

Because the refs on the field blew the call and NY didn't have the stones to overturn the obvious error

Also possible a ref saw it clearly…..assuming it happened.
