Horrible call. And I'm SHOCKED that Michales and Madden weren't all over that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Terrible call. 447351[/snapback] Speaking of TERRIBLE calls.... Did anyone see the officiating in the Jest/Dullfin game? That may have been the WORST-officiated game I've EVER seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffalOhio Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Droughns fumbled in the Browns/Packers game and the jackass official ruled him down so it couldn't be reviewed. Clearly a fumble, he was still at about 45 degrees upright when the ball came out, and Mr. Insurance Salesman ruled him down. I didn't even care about the game, but the down by contact calls piss me off. Let the play happen, then allow it to be reviewed if necessary.

I agree, JP fumbled that ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure doesn't seem like that is happening. Course, I could have heard that during a college game as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
