Yeah, it's a rule called the "we've been pimping Peyton Manning for years, we've got to get him to the Super Bowl THIS YEAR" rule.

Then again I'll ask, why didn't they call false start on the Steelers on 4th and 1?

So if he lies there on the ground with the ball it's an interception ... but if he tries to get up and do something with it then it's not?  Does that make ANY sense?  Total bull sh--!

Exactly...What "memo" is going to explain this joke?

Of Course the rule was voted on and changed this off season.....it use to read:

 

"we've been pimping Tom Brady all year, we've got to get him to the Super Bowl THIS YEAR" rule.

I'll answer that...THEY DIDN'T SEE IT!

 

There's no excuse for not seeing that play as an INT.

They'll dust off the "tuck rule" memo and edit in some of the memo from the Dallas-Sabres "no goal" game.

 

The offieicating has been horrible...but, both ways, IMO.

Its technically not a pick. It's a terrible rule interpreted correctly.

 

Why you ask? Because in order to make a catch, you have to maintain possession to the ground. Polamalu was technically going "to the ground" since the ball came out when his knee was down--hence it was incomplete when the ball came out. Its like the tuck rule. If polamalu just stayed down it would have been fine.
