Cheating hard for greenbay

[Run the ball]

The rule itself is bullshit!! Why can a RB reach over the goal line, fumble, and be awarded the TD for breaking the plane, yet a WR can make the catch, get both feet down, get tackled, and be forced to hold on to the ball through the process??

I think this catch rule is one of the biggest issue in professional football right now. They need to get right and real quick, IMO.

Damn these crooked ass refs man.. How the fuck was that a interception? Just how?? Unfucking real.. They also overturn a cam newton first down and award greenbay with a td when he was clearly short.. I'm done man!!

how about the Rodgers fumble called an incomplete pass? Even the announcers said something on that one.

How about the blatant defensive hold on one of the fourth qtr passes for Carolina? I mean holy shit, how far do they have to go to give a team a chance to win. I'm still laughing at how obvious it is.

The obvious pick, no flag, on that 4th down play on the four. Can you say blatant? Again mentioned by the announcers.

Or perhaps Rodgers in the pocket and the ref telling us he was out of the pocket on the ball thrown away that should have been intentional grounding. my god, what a list.

I hate the Packers too but that was clearly an interception.

how?

 

[jc456]

If it was Fuller or even Tillman you'd say otherwise. The league has gotten so stupid with the catch no catch crap that people ignore the fact the guy made a great play on the ball.
If that's an incomplete pass it really is the no fun league.

huh? A catch, two feet down with control of the ball. No where was there ever any control in bounds. EVA!!!!! Incomplete pass, no reason to reward someone like that for causing an incompletion.

 

[jc456]

Imagine if Cutler won as often as Rodgers or was anywhere near as good. Double standard or not, you can get away with more when you win.

Double standard. Wow dude, just wow.

Totally agree!!

Ignoring the rest of the complaints and this thread, the refs made the right call on the INT imo. The corner bobbles, yes. But he gained possession of the ball and had two feet down and was running down field. Watch the play again, although momentary only, before the wide receiver hits the ball. When the ball then starts moving again, it's because it's almost a fumble. However, prior to that he did enough to make the catch. At the very least, no way in hell was there enough to overturn the call. I hate the Packers, but that was the right call.

i'll disagree with ya. No way did that back ever secure the ball in bounds. Post up a video and let's see.

Rodgers chokes again

Don't tell the truth or all the Rodgers homers (we all know who they are) will look like morons and argue vs the facts that Rodgers hasn't beat a team with a winning record in years:yep::yep::yep:

Because a RB is already established as a runner when they cross the goal line. The instant the tip of the ball touches the line it is a TD no matter what else happens. When a player is already in the end zone and catches the ball they have to complete the process of the catch in order for it to be a touchdown. The pass catcher in the end zone has not yet established themselves as a runner. Very similar to when someone catches the ball in the regular field, gets hit before making a football move, the ball comes out, and it is ruled incomplete instead of a fumble. If a wide receiver catches the ball at the 5 yard line and runs it in they are treated the same as a RB because they are established as a runner.

They grey area is when the catch is completed. When you are in the end zone it is completing the process because you don't need to be a runner but you need to maintain control through the entire process the same way that you do in the regular field of play.

Now, this is of course, all subjective to what the Zebras think they saw and which review specialist is making the call in the booth, and what kind of day they have had as well. which seems to change almost weekly.

An example in the DETvs CHI game the guy was not established as a runner when the ball broke the plane and was knocked out should have been ruled an interception because he did not complete the process. I am still not sure how they overturned that one. However the Dez bryant catch last night was the exact opposite had control of the ball, knee touched the ground, split second later opposing player punched it out, counts as a TD because he completed the process to the ground.

I don't have the link but it can be found here. After he bobbles it, he secures it and has two feet down. Then the receiver dives in and punches it loose.

That ball doesn't stop moving before it is swatted by Ginn. before he regains control he steps out of bounds. watch the ultra slow mo on it the ball is still moving when its swatted.

I looked at it again from that link, I still don't see him ever having control in bounds. The ball is punched by the receiver before the second foot hits the turf. The left hand merely moves the ball, it is not in his hand and he is desperately trying to hold it against his body and finally he gets it secured and his second foot hits on the chalk.

You must have missed his last good post about a year ago.

EggBritches comes up with some good shit but it's rare here on these boards.

On CBMBDs at least he came up with something good about once a quarter kinda like BOB

That's because this Omelet is HHM, the CBMB Omelet never came here.

No at 25 seconds in. Before the receiver swats at it, he has two hands on it the ball doesn't move and then the receiver comes in and punches it. Both his feet were on the ground at that moment, prior to the receiver almost causing a fumble.

It's too bad the challenge video isn't available that I could find. It's even clearer.

I did. It's not. He catches it. Two feet down, receiver swats

Correct. Understandably there are some here that choose not to see possession while both feet are down, but its plain as day that possession had been established, albeit for less than a second.
