How sad for him that he didn't get the one borderline call when the game was already decided.

Sour grapes and poor sportsmanship. Today’s athletes lack class when they lose and some when they win. Think Mahomes when the Tomeygate incident. Doesn’t help that his language speaking skills lack and looks like a thug.

Still don’t understand people saying this. Unless I’m wrong about the wind a 49 yard kick is pretty close to a chip shot in today’s NFL. If you can trust your kicker to hit that you need a new kicker.

And at worst you think it's just going to be a miss, how many FGs get blocked AND go 30 yds in the opposite direction

There was a game recently...maybe in the college football playoffs where this happened.  A kickoff rolled to a complete stop about the five yard line and about 2 yards in bound.  The returner laid down on his stomach with his feet out of bounds and touched the ball.  It was therefore an illegal kick out of bounds and they got the ball out at the 40.  Found a link to this example by the Packers a few years back.  https://www.sbnation.com/2016/9/25/13049606/packers-kick-return-ty-montgomery-randall-cobb

Tasker did this a couple times 30-whatefer years ago too. Step one foot out of bounds and catch the kickoff - straight to the 40. :thumbsup:

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

It’s not that complicated. 😂 

 

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

You were told a number of times, during warmups neither kicker could make it from that distance in that direction. it was against the wind, the try at that point was a foolish wrong decision, that resulted in giving the opponent 7 pts and injuring our punter.

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.

Cam beat out Siran Neal for the spot.  I have to agree with that.

Expand  

A few years ago Taron was really struggling at NCB so they put Cam in and he promptly got hurt.  Was always our backup nickel CB before taking snaps at S.

I guess they think the ball glanced off Friermeuth's helmet. He was out of bounds when that would have happened. Dead ball. All I can guess.

This is exactly it. The ref didn't really give clarity, but that's 100% it.

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.
