Wow, that is an absolutely brutal call by the refs. The ball only came out when it hit the turf, well after he got two feet down. Hopefully the Raiders bring that up with the league, because they just got jobbed out of 6 points.
Catch- Check Possession- Check 2 feet- Check Knee down- Check yet they overturn it??? WTF is that? So now You have to maintain possession all the way through til you fall down? That was NEVER the rule
nfl.com: 2-7-OAK 27 11) (Shotgun) P.Rivers sacked at OAK 29 for -2 yards (B.Seymour). http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2009091401/2009/REG1/chargers@raiders/track#tab:analyze I guess they think he changed his name after reporting to Oakland.
Minutiae that struck me in that video that has nothing to do with your point. Sanchez has his Jets cap on forward, Clemens has his on backward. Here/Bye. Caught my attention. Body language always does.
In truth, that "Worst Loss of All Time" thread just had to be from a Bills fan who is about 15 years old. No on younger could ever say such a thing. Yours is a great example, but if the Music City Miracle isn't the worst in every Bills fan's mind, then they're just too young. Losing with a friggin' throwback return play like that is WAY worse than losing by a 47 yard fieldgoal.
I think 'Wide Right' has to be the all time low for Bills fans. The Music City Miracle was bad, but they we're a kick away from a Championship! Nothing worse than being THAT close.
True, but think of the stakes. Norwood could've won a Super Bowl...no team coached by Wade Phillips and QB'd by Rob Johnson was winning a championship.
