    why no mention about Pitt not kicking the field goal and throwing an ill advised rushed throw for a pick.

    Receivers have had control of the ball in the end zone. Then when they went out with it and bobbled the ball they say it's incomplete.

  • The Seth Roberts confirmed catch by instant replay was less of a catch than the Pitt reversed catch.

    This is definitely an issue.

    Reason? Has no place in the NFL.

    After the Pats win the SB expect the owners to pressure the rules committee to change the rule for next season. And when the Pats return to defend their championship expect the owners to complain and grouse about how unfair the rules are and demand further changes. I look forward to a Tom Brady versus Jimmy Garopolo SB.

    What the hell are you even talking about???  The catch rule is complete nonsense and needs to be changed...it really doesn't have anything to do with the patriots.

    We have to be OK with the ref's officiating to the rules...

    that being said, it has not been really clear for years (megatron, remember that one?!) what a catch is and isnt.  Silly of the NFL to not be able to clearly outline this.
    That was a great frigging game yesterday.  They will play again in a few weeks.

    It was clearly incomplete. The catch rule isn't nonsense and doesn't need to be changed. And that play cost me a shot at $1,000 cause a Roethlisberger TD there would have won me my fantasy football playoff game. I blame Jessie James for fucking up, not the rule. It was obviously incomplete and it was James' fault it was.

    Serial Pats hater here, but that wasn’t a catch. At this point everybody knows you have to keep control all the way to the ground and he didnt. 
    Yup. It's the fucking rule. Might be a stupid one....but it's the rule. People freak out over the same exact rule all the time. 

    Great game. Betting on the Pats after a loss is a time honored tradition of mine.

    Look for the 49'ers to make a big jump next year. They have themselves a quarterback and some nice pieces on defense.

    If that one wasn’t a catch, then I don’t understand how the one at the end of the Packer’s game WAS a catch. Especially considering that it’s supposed to be the same people making these decisions now, right?

    Wait a second. I thought any Patriot QB was a just an overrated system QB?

    It has been very clear that you need to complete the catch all the way to the ground. Ball hits the ground, it is an incomplete pass. This isn't the 1970s anymore. Get with the times people.

    This week was another prime example of the GOAT doing what he's done for 17 years, and the others melting with the game on the line. Did anybody see Eli Manning throw the ball out of the back of the endzone, on 4th down, on the last play, not even giving his receiver a chance.:lol:

    You know exactly what is going to happen. Why do we even watch!

  • Sure, blame it on the rule and not Rapelsburger spiking the ball, kicking a field goal and taking it to overtime where the odds favor the home team, particularly one with a kicker who’s been money of late. But oh yea, it’s the stinking rule. Why is Mike Tomlin angry all the time?

    Stupid rule that makes the game less fun.
  • I didn't mind the decision by Ben. It was his execution that was the shits. He wasn't the only Steeler to crap his pants though.

    The officials made the right call the way the rule reads... it's just a shitty rule is what people are saying.

    I didn't really care who won that game... I just didn't want Brady's best pal, Trump, gloating like he probably is today around the WH. Him and Tom are probably texting right now. Actually... that's a good thing: if he's texting his best friend... then he's not tweeting! I change my mind- I wanted the Pats. Good rule!
