KD in CA Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 didn't that look like a fumble to anyone but me? he turned, took 2 steps and got killed....i thought it was close to a fumble. 447343[/snapback] No question at all that it was a fumble. Horrible call. And I'm SHOCKED that Michales and Madden weren't all over that one.
sven233 Posted September 20, 2005 Author Posted September 20, 2005 that is why i was asking....i couldn't believe that i was the only one who saw that.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 Terrible call. 447351[/snapback] Speaking of TERRIBLE calls.... Did anyone see the officiating in the Jest/Dullfin game? That may have been the WORST-officiated game I've EVER seen.
BuffalOhio Posted September 20, 2005 Posted September 20, 2005 Droughns fumbled in the Browns/Packers game and the jackass official ruled him down so it couldn't be reviewed. Clearly a fumble, he was still at about 45 degrees upright when the ball came out, and Mr. Insurance Salesman ruled him down. I didn't even care about the game, but the down by contact calls piss me off. Let the play happen, then allow it to be reviewed if necessary.

Unbelievable

Sure doesn't seem like that is happening. Course, I could have heard that during a college game as well
