    A note in Rule 8.1.3 states this clearly:

    If a player has control of the ball, a slight movement of the ball will not be considered a loss of possession. He must lose control of the ball in order to rule that there has been a loss of possession.

    The officials on the field, and the replay team at the NFL offices in New York, all got this right. They just had to work a little harder than usual to do it.



    Cooksies was a slight movement that did not cause him to lose control of the ball


    James’s did lose control of the ball


    Just stating facts



    No. You're stating your opinion tempered with a good dose of bias stemming from your NFL fandom originating in 2002.

    I don't give a shit if the Pats or the Steelers won the game (I don't sleep in a Brady jersey and have a picture of Tom and Donald framed in my living room). James' catch was a catch.

    The rule as it is written allows for some gomer at central to interpret something other than the obvious.

    I think we can all agree that the dumbest rule in football is the classic

    - run ball in for close touchdown with 9 seconds left

    - clock stops for touchdown

    - touchdown is automatically reviewed and get overturned

    - game over instead of having one more play due to 10 second run off


    I think the rule should be that a game can't end on an overturned touchdown with more than 5 seconds left. One untimed down should be played.

    I don't like the rule (The Calvin Johnson non catch is the most egregious example of how bad it is), but by the rule, James did not catch the ball.
    He didn't have control when he hit the ground, his left hand comes up off the ball and spins the ball about 180 degrees. Pretty clear according to the poor rule.


    This weekend we rock Portland

    This only issue I have for this is what if the team had no timeouts?  They would never have stopped the clock had they been ruled down at the 1 yard line originally.  I'm not even sure they would have been able to call a timeout.

    Usually 6 seconds is long enough to place the ball and get another play off. In basically all cases this would apply to teams already in the redzone.

    I think we have seen lots of teams blow that up (getting back to spike in 6 seconds from the time the previous play ends)  -- I think that if they have a time out and there is judged time enough to call one, at least they should be allowed to do that.

    I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm pleased with the call because it means the Steelers lost.  But it is still a dumb rule.
