Virgil Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but the amount of PI calls not getting overturned and now this? Something’s up. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28103490/texans-deandre-hopkins-need-new-deciding-pi-calls How is this not PI? 1
Buffalo Bills Fan Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 That's PI. Tackled the guy before ball was there. That's crazy whoever called it not PI. 1
Big Turk Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 It was...league has been sending a clear message since week 1 that they are not going to overturn PI calls..no idea why coaches are still challenging them. This is a one and done rule and will likely only be kept around for playoffs
Wayne Cubed Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 It’s weird cause they overturned a non called PI in the 49ers/Cardinals against Richard Sherman, then called him for PI. First one I’ve seen overturned.
Happy Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 PI easily. Officiating needs a major overhaul. 1
MassHog Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 If the bills were not winning games this year, I would not watch the NFL. The refs calls directly ruin at least one game a week, and the fact that they cannot admit they made a mistake is asinine.
H2o Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) It was definitely PI and the refs are just trying to stick it to everyone. Riveron is a joke. Edited November 18, 2019 by H2o 1 1

The Wiz Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 It honestly feels like refs are letting more go now since PI is reviewable and are just saying "if you don't trust our calls we aren't going to reverse or call it at all"

The announcers and rules consultant on the CBS broadcast were saying it’s PI. Steratore or whoever it is they’ve got was playing Twister and doing the Limbo trying to defend how it wasn’t
Doc Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Yeah they're intentionally not reversing PI calls/non-calls in the vast majority of situations. I think I've seen a handful changed so far.
Tcali Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 the officials are too old. they should all be ex athletes with hi IQs and should be retired at age 45
Scott7975 Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 It's been pretty evident for a long time now that they aren't going to overturn them because they don't like to be questioned. 1
Talley56 Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Apparently the Cardinals were called for a PI that should have actually been on the Niners (and that was a much closer game). Seems the calls are inconsistent.
Coach Tuesday Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Amazingly the NFL changed the rule on PI and then put the union boss in charge of reviewing his union employees - the rubber-stamping is completely predictable. The NFL is such a backwater of a company.
Bferra13 Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 Corrupt officials? Corrupt Riveron? I miss those replacement refs in 2012 or what not. They woulda fine with a year or so under their belts. 1

The Nfl has simply directed that short of an egregious and likely seemingly intentional act they aren’t doing it. quite literally they are treating it as an nfc championship game rule not as an any given Sunday occurrence. I’m on the fence with how I feel about that but it seems the reality and I’m not sure that a high threshold requires talk of conspiracy On 11/18/2019 at 12:50 AM, Coach Tuesday said: Amazingly the NFL changed the rule on PI and then put the union boss in charge of reviewing his union employees - the rubber-stamping is completely predictable. The NFL is such a backwater of a company. Expand under that thought why isn’t every call the same way? i think none of them want every deep ball with contact to be challenged so they said to only give it to the worst of the worst
