    Lastyear in the Harbaugh game Schwartz was making fun of Harbaugh for doing the same thing!

    refs are freaking blind to blow the call in the first place.

    it wasn't even close.

    By rule he did nothing wrong. Schwartz is the moron. How fuckin' dumb was he to throw a challenge flag on a scoring play! They automatically get reviewed unless a coach does what Schwartz did!

    The fact that the play even got to having to be a reviewable TD is horrible by the refs. I don't get the flag rule.

    It should be you get charged the 15 yards and it still gets reviewed.

    I agree. It was shitty of them to not see Forsett was grounded.

    I am so engraged. As some of you have mentioned, this is exactly what Belichek did, but yet that play was reviewed and overturned. Without that erroneous call we win the game and are 5-5 and playing for 1st place today.

    Unbelievable, I'm starting to hate the NFL as much as I hate the NBA

    The NFL tinkers with the rules every year.

    Lions are so dirty. Hope SF lays the wood on them at some point.

    The refs are letting stuff go because they know they messed up.

    exactly. That's what I assumed it was. I didn't know that they then refuse to review it.

    Anyone watching could've seen he was down. I saw he was down. The refs can't see.

    San Francisco? They probably won't play them again this season.

    I think a team of replacement refs would've ruled him down.

    yea didn't look up their schedule but it was the only big extremely physical NFC team I could think of offhand, but you get the point.

    And I feel bad for Stafford because if other teams keep getting their QB cheapshotted they may feel at liberty to do likewise to him.

    This is essentially the don't be a dick rule. I actually understand it and don't think it will change.

    Arizona and Chicago remain on their schedule. Each of those teams have several tough defenders.

    Yeah, the league does not want them wasting time. Touchdowns are reviewed automatically now so there is no reason for head coaches to be dicks and waste time by throwing challenge flags and yelling at refs

    The penalty is fine, why throw in a non-reviewable rule in there as well? It's like double kill. Then add in inconsistency in ruling that as a penalty and it causes angst.
