It wasn't a catch because of the NFLs definition of patriotism. Patriotism - anything that helps the Patriots win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The refs made a horrible call on that Colts 2P conversion (the block absolutely began within a yard of the LOS - I watched it multiple times), and the fumble call on Matt Ryan was beyond ridiculous. It's not often (more like never) that you see a pass that goes 15 yards down the field get called a fumble. The Bills got their calls this year, and they were the difference between 7-9 and 9-7. The Bills were absolutely screwed in the Miami game last year (remember the two non-PI calls in the EZ on on Charles Clay that arguably cost the team 8 pts PLUS all of the other stuff?), and if they had gone into the Jets game at an 8-7 record, they probably would have won that last game (against a horrible team) instead of tanking. Overall, the refs were kind to the Bills this season. It doesn't matter if the block came within 1 yard of the LOS. from the NFL rule book when the ball is in the air there shall be NO BLOCKING past the LOS the ball was in the air and the colts player was still blocking. It was illegal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinceThe70s Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 1 hour ago, Wayne Cubed said: I think it’s the frame by frame analysis. Replay was intended to overturn obvious mistakes not break a catch down frame by frame. They need to go back to staying with the call on the field unless it’s obvious. Couldn't agree more. I really don't see the need for a Zapruder film analysis on every close play in an NFL game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlonce Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 2 hours ago, teef said: an illusion? it looks like the front nose of the ball hits the ground. i may be wrong, but an illusion? that's like when my wife hit one of those construction barrels, and said the way in which they were set up created an optical illusion. it wasn't an illusion. again, i may be wrong. It did hit the ground. You can see his right hand on the ball above the nose of it, he then scooped under the ball. It was close, tough to overturn looking at replays but it did hit. Having said that, it is doubtful Peterman could have sustained a drive anyway,but we will never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cba fan Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 1 hour ago, MAJBobby said: I agree with the rule. And I understand what you see however knowing that ball called a pick on the field. So you have disagreements amongst Bills fans so that to me is inconclusive and hence the call on the field stands dont think it was announced confirmed. Which means not enough to overturn it is all You and others siding with the call on the field and inconclusive here are missing the point. Riveron has been overturning this call all season long. Why does he stop now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John in Jax Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) Just rewatched it on my 65" HD TV. Plain as day as he rolls over, part of the ball also rolls on the ground too. Yes he has one hand on the ball, but since he's rolling, his hand doesn't stay between the ball and ground. In fact, the latter is physically & scientifically impossible, unless his hand is also moving around the ball as he rolls (it's not). Shad Khan must have paid in more than Pegs!

You got super vision? lol. his hand was under the ball and the TV broadcast got all the good angles. Theres no way you can tell from those twitter clips. This was unfortunately the right call.

zow2 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I was more angry about the Zay “drop” on the previous drive, 3rd down, that on replay clearly showed defensive PI. The DB arrived early and wrapped up Zay’s arms before the ball even arrived. The announcers didn’t even say anything. I was so pissed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
