If we are being honest about it, DeVonta Smith is going to establish himself as the best WR in the league within the next 3 years.

His broke ass was sitting on a cardboard box trying to find a stream on his dusty laptop like mostly everyone who doesn't care about the Eagles. Stop instigating PDay.

Well... I figured this thread would be bumped today, but I did not expect RTK to bump it.

Devonta did not even catch this ball in picture, reverse angle was pretty conclusive at showing that. No wonder he got up quickly and looked like he wanted team to hustle to snap the ball quickly.

Devonta finished game:
- 1 catch 7 yards
- 1 soccer style catch (acting) for 29 yards

You think he has a bigger day if the Eagles had to play a football game that wasn’t over with about 7 minutes left in the 1Q though? You want to take away a catch that was never challenged by a bad coach who always shits the bed in a big spot but we can’t consider why the Eagles offense had a poor statistical day yesterday?

Reading way too much into my post.... my only point was expecting this thread to be bumped today, just not by RTK.

His hand is clearly under the ball.
Not enough evidence to overturn.
Catch counts.

So are you saying a better receiver than Smith would have actually made the catch and that's why you were posting this or were you just too drunk to remember it wasn't actually a catch?

After removing this from his stats since it wasn't a catch he had 1 catch for 7 yards. Impressive...

Ball moves and hand not under the ball, ball is trapped against the ground, pretty clear no catch.




Bill Barnwell article

On further review, it was clear that no such catch occurred. Smith bobbled the ball on the way down, and while no review ever took place, it's extremely likely a replay review would have reversed the call to an incomplete pass and a turnover on downs for the 49ers. An overturn by an official, a challenge flag from the 49ers or an expedited review from the league office in New York all could have reversed the call, but none came before the Eagles snapped the ball.

You are correct "Catch counts", it was not challenged and on the stat sheet, cannot be changed now.

To the letter, it’s not a catch. But it doesn’t matter. It’s just one more layer of piling on to show how poor a coach Shanahan is in a big game. His decision not to challenge would have loomed larger if he wasn’t retarded enough to block Reddick with a TE and ruin his chances of competing in the game.

It was a catch. Amazing catch. The records shall always reflect it as a catch. But great veteran move by DeVonta to get the offense in hurry up to snap the ball.

My theory is in the first half if you haven't used a TO and you aren't sure about a replay, just call a TO and then review it. Especially in a case like that where the team is rushing up after a big play and you aren't really set perfectly anyway. Just call the TO and regroup and give yourself time to decide if you want to challenge or not.

In the second half it gets a little tougher to "waste" a TO

Even Hufanga thought he caught it and he was right there.
