rams80 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 I'm laughing at all of that. Should never have indulged those coaching temper tantrums in the first place.

dont care Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 The first challenge last night definitely should have stood as called I really don’t know why Schurmer threw a flag there. Second one was boarder line, the thing is refs aren’t going to change a call for borderline because the standard to overturn is set at such a high standard of being clear on obvious, and in this play it’s hand fighting to prevent a pass like every other play. A play needs to basically be what happened in the NFC Championship game to overturn a call. Anything less isn’t going to be changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueYankee26 Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Giants were not going to win anyway so they can not blame the refs. But this is very inexcusable. trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is very inexcusable. Some of those bad calls happen in the fourth quarter when the game is out of hand. Others happen in the middle of the second when the game is still tight and a bad or missed call is the difference between a score or a punt. When the Bills played the Pats, they were driving at the end of the 2nd. There was an obvious face mask on Josh Allen by the Pats but it wasn't called and you can't ask for that to be reviewed. Instead of stopping the clock and moving the Bills up into scoring range, they ended the half with a missed 49-yard FG, ending the first half down 13-3 instead of 13-6 or 13-10. In a 16-10 game, those 3 points are huge. So it's not just the big misses, but also the little ones along the way that are huge momentum shifters. Like when refs decide to call holding and blocks in the back or when they don't. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont care Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 Personal fouls really should be challengeable, much more than pass interferences plays. Atleast things like face masks, defenseless receiver, helmet to helmet, roughing the passer (sometimes) have clear criteria that determine if a foul was committed or not.

The issue is that the NFL kowtowed to a bunch of butthurt Saints fans and a bunch of crooked leaders who filed a lawsuit against the NFL with a crooked judge in New Orleans allowing the lawsuit to progress instead of throwing it out and telling the plaintiffs to grow the up and get over a bad call. Idea is fine, the circumstances make it a terrible precedent to set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Even if there was a "normal" amount of outrage over the Saints-Rams PI, we'd probably have PI reviews now, anyway. It's not exactly unprecedented for rules to change in a reactionary way after a big screwup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Comet Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Eh, seems like its going to be a self-correcting issue anyway. The game keeps getting more and more bogged down and even if something is a good idea on paper, the implementation matters to me far more. And the implementation is resulting in slowing the game down even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolvikings Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Actually, no, I don't think PI should be reviewable. It's too subjective, and at super slow motion, pretty much everything looks at least a little like interference. And then, what about holding? And roughing? And blocks in the back? Where does it stop? Should we just take a break between every play while someone hunches over a screen and fine-tooths eveything? Enough. Just play and stop bitching. You think the refs messed up? Hey, it happens... I have an idea for last year's Saints. Play defense in the overtime, jackasses. Maybe your future HOF quarterback shouldn't have thrown a pick. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't the Saints benefit from bad calls when you played them in the NFC Championship Game when Favre was your QB? I don't remember anything specific but I remember a lot of people criticizing the officiating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
