Brodney Pool made himself useful for once with a pick!

 

[RipCity32]

Man fuck these idiot ass refs.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Sanchez gives the Dolphins 3 points... Nice

 

[RipCity32]

You gotta be fucking kidding me.

 

[RipCity32]

That's a fucking TD but we have no challenges left. That is SUCH bull shit. These refs are fucking ridiculous.

 

[RipCity32]

So we have to settle for a field goal.
Thank you blind ass refs.

hopefully I catch a replay of it later on.

im sure it'll pop up on Youtube within 10 minutes.

The Panthers are going to be so nasty next year. They're going to get Jon Beason and Thomas Davis back from injury to shore up the defense and will probably use their 1st on a defensive guy.

 

[RipCity32]

Young clearly got both feet down, I could tell from my fucking TV as it happened live. But the ref who's standing right fucking there misses the call? Are you kidding me.

 

[Lake Louise]

Right when I knew we didn't have any challenges left, I knew it would come into play


Thanks Alphonso

The NFL is so ass-backwards it makes my head spin.

Guy makes catch, they say TD, they automatically review it.

Guy makes close catch, might be a TD, they say it isn't, they can't automatically review it....

Something I just wrote makes no sense -- can you figure it out?

 

[elcheato]

It makes perfect sense.. It's not a scoring play so its not reviewed.

Exactly what I don't get.
The ref should have just called it a fucking TD so they can overturn it if necessary, but don't fucking call it not a catch and literally take 4 points away from us.

 

[Lake Louise]

Damn. Almost a hell of a catch by Titus.

 

[RipCity32]

Honestly a joke. We should be up like 14.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

you're missing the point.

The rule is basically favoring the Defense. Guy makes a TD catch, refs can automatically review it to potentially benefit the defense. But the rule doesn't allow them to automatically review it to potentially benefit the offense. It's ass-backwards.

My belief is, any play that has a direct impact on the score, should be automatically reviewable.

I understand what the review rule is, but I think the rule needs to be changed.

 

[elcheato]

I'm not missing any point, you're nitpicking at the NFL and their rules, again.. Referees make mistakes, use your challenges wisely..

 

[Giantmetfan07]

So if a referee calls a TD but its a mistake they can obviously review it. Again, it's completely one sided. Make the rule for both ways or don't have it at all.

 

[RipCity32]

The challenges were used wisely.
The first challenge was a clear mistake by the ref, and we had to correct it.
The second challenge was a terrible call on the field, that we also had to challenge. But wasn't overturned cause they called it wrong the first time and the fucking camera angles couldn't overturn it.
