That is one of the worst calls ever...do not sit on the ball, we have to score 3 here. Worst first half of the year.

That's how The Fox has always coached.

Refs need to be suspended and fined...this shit is costing games

I heard a ref got suspended for what happened with the clock in the Pitt vs San Diego game last week.

Howie and Michael thought it was a INT.

Bradshaw thought Tate caught it in the end zone so apparently it's instantly a TD once a receiver has two hands on a ball in the end zone?
Bradshaw's a moron.

What I want to know Is why some of you are surprised this is a close game? 3 points is the only thing separating us from being 0-5.

Bears basically won last week on a phantom PI call. It happens. Get over it. The problem is the rule isn't clear to anyone. The NFL needs to clarify/revise what constitutes a catch. There is a whole half left and this is still a very winnable game.

3-3 into bye 11-5 finish season

so you are telling me the shit play you are seeing right now, penalties, can't score a TD only FG, no defense against a team that was down, can't stop the running of a fat QB, more players being sent to the locker room cuz they can't play an entire game, you see this group going 9 and 2?????

I think he is telling you there is a chance.

Even before the Calvin Rule I don't think that's a TD. Fuller's hand was clearly on the ball while Tate was attempting to catch it and before he had legit possession the ball popped out. Just dumb.

Do the refs at the game make the calls on challenges/reviews, or do they go to headquarters? I thought it was the latter. Until they get better refs or full-time refs, they should have a crack staff of experts in NY who look at the play(s) and make the call.

If he had possession crossing the goal line, nothing afterwards matters. Not so sure he established possession though.

If it wasn't in the endzone, no way that would have been called complete, it's like the ref didn't know what to do because he had the ball in his hands for a quarter second over the line.
