AdamK Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I picked that height (bottom of ball at bottom of Wycheks foot) based on the other perspectives and matched it to the height of the catch. Take a look at the 4 images and THEN tell me what you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) I never thought it was definitely backwards. I have always thought it was as close to perfectly straight as humanly possible. One thing is for certain: it wasn't definitely forward. It was pretty much the classic case of inconclusive. It would have been insane and the wrong call for the refs to overturn it. That's it.Exactly. To go to the next level- The game wasn't won and lost on whether it was 1 inch forward or 2 inches backwards.... As much as it sucks here, short of being definitively forward I'm probably for letting that play continue and the players settle it on the field than a whistle being blown there.

Ronin Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 What a bunch of maroons. It was a forward pass!!! A FORWARD PASS!!! :censored: It really was, and it's so easy to prove using simple geometry, yet I've seen no one do it the way that I'm talking about. It's crystal clear. Exactly. To go to the next level- The game wasn't won and lost on whether it was 1 inch forward or 2 inches backwards.... As much as it sucks here, short of being definitively forward I'm probably for letting that play continue and the players settle it on the field than a whistle being blown there. It was more than that, at least half-a-yard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick the Greek Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 We would have won the Super Bowl that year if not for this play I tell ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 We would have won the Super Bowl that year if not for this play I tell ya. Could the Bills' D have shut down the greatest show on turf with Warner, Faulk, Bruce, Holt, and company. It would have been a fun matchup.

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 It always seems to be general knowledge amongst us Bills fans that had we won that game we would have been in the Super Bowl. It makes sense given the fact that the Titans made the Super Bowl, and the AFC was relatively weak. However, no matter how great our D was that year we had Rob freaking Johnson at QB. The Titans had Steve McNair. Although Johnson played competently in Tennessee, does no one remember the horrifying play he was capable of? Maybe it's always been my coping mechanism for the Music City Miracle, but I truly believe it. We worry about our offense going into this game, but I'll take TT over RJ everyday.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 karma is a B word for the bragging fans. I knew this would be a topic after the Giants WR rehash past week. ILLEGAL PLAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metzelaars_lives Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 It really was, and it's so easy to prove using simple geometry, yet I've seen no one do it the way that I'm talking about. It's crystal clear. It was more than that, at least half-a-yard. If you think it's "crystal clear" that it was a forward pass by "at least a half a yard" you are simply seeing something that isn't there. But if that's what helps you sleep at night. I picked that height (bottom of ball at bottom of Wycheks foot) based on the other perspectives and matched it to the height of the catch. Take a look at the 4 images and THEN tell me what you think. I think inconclusive. In no way was there enough evidence to overturn the call. If it was called a forward pass on the field I think it also would have stood. But I think there would have been more of a case to overturn it if it was called a forward pass because it looks to be perfectly straight, which is a lateral.

HamSandwhich Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Jim Kelly wouldn't change a thing. That was Frank Reich's day. Best image I can find of it. People seem to think it's a legal pass based on this picture. What is the rule here? The ball is clearly released in front of the player who passed it and ends up in front of him. Isn't a legal pass a pass that ends up behind the player who threw it? If so, this is clearly a forward pass. Can anyone clarify the rule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
