[SteelersPride]

Brady owns ratburger

[dbldwn711]

Deja vu?

 

[SteelersPride]

its a debateable call IMHO...........either way it was a great game.........AB plays all game i think its different

but we had the chance to tie, and went for the win, it backfired.........great game, and hopefully see part 2 with a healthy ab, however i fear AB has an achilles

I hate black and white rules. Only hire refs with a minimum of vvommon sense, and let them make a common sense call. Anybody with any common sense (and not a vested rooting interest) can see that was a catch on the overturned call. But instead they overanalyze it to try and see how it applies to the way the rule was written.

I agree, can't stand this rule. Happy as hell it went in NEs favor though. Just FYI i watched the game in a bar. I called it a TD. The majority of non-Steeler fans (mostly pissed off and drunk 12s) said it was no catch. For what that's worth?

"what is a catch?"

thank god baseball doesnt ask "what is a run?"

that sport has their shit together

Finally have internet back... Still place is a mess but baby steps.

Wish I actually was able to see this game... Just got it back in time to see Brady and Big Ben hugging.... I saw on ESPN gamecast that the Steelers got a TD with like 28 seconds left, then reversed.. What happened? Why was it?

None of your business

Fuck off back to Stans!

The difference between getting the #1 vs #2 seed is getting the Jags in the divisional round.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

That was a huge dose of Gronk. That taunt after the 2-pointer was funny.

Lucky he didn't get a taunting penalty.

 

[Dude]

That’s what they mean when you get Gronked. Amazing hands for such a big brute.

 

[Wazmankg]

Yeah, once they showed the angle, the precedent is clear. If you told me that was a drop in pickup, I don't think anyone would take you seriously.

It was clear he had control. I don't care for the rule. I thought Dez scored in that playoff game.. what was it last year.. and it's 'The Calvin Johnson' rule so it's always been a sore spot.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

Why would he say that or anybody? Pats were - 2.5 and you win, 3 is a push

It was a joke. The game was long over before I posted it.

Flip a coin

 

[NWPATSFAN]

Ok but what's really important is whether or not @Hank Kingsley thought it was a catch?

 

[dbldwn711]

Lucky he didn't get a taunting penalty.

He definitely should have gotten one!! not sure if the penalty is assessed on the kickoff or the try for two. If it's the latter that changes the whole game bc a FG wins it.

Yeah, as I said the precedent is clear. The rule itself is clear as mud for any kind of plain reading of it; it's what happens when justifications and CYA come before making things right.
