PTS Posted October 2, 2005 Posted October 2, 2005 The game went down to the wire, and Detroit looked like they scored the game wining touchdown. Until, the NFL officials f-ed one up again. I don't know how they honestly reviewed that called touchdown and said that there was conclusive evidence that Pollard was out of bounds, therefor overturning the TD. For anyone that didn't see the play. Harrington threw to Marcus Pollard who was on the ground sliding to make the catch. He defintely caught the ball and remained in bounds. No way was there evidence to overturn it. That's the type of call you expect on us when we play the Patriots.

No TD! Screw the Lions!

BuffOrange Posted October 2, 2005 Posted October 2, 2005 Just saw the slow-mo on Primetime... Looked like a TD.

I DVRed it and stopped the play when it looked like he had full possession. He was at least three inches away from the line. Plus, I'd say you could argue that he had possession a few split seconds before I considered he had full possession. Either way, there is no way they can conclusively say that there was evidence to overturn it. These replay booths have slow motion I presume?
