They dont. Remember the Seattle game with the replacement refs?

They need to change the possession rules for receiver. It's bogus that the ground can't cause a fumble but it can cause an incompletion. And on the defensive side they need to chill out on all the Pass Interference calls and let the guys play.

I told my dad the unspoken rule in the NFL right now is that if you are the home team, especially in the playoffs, you can expect all the close-calls and replays to go your way. I think the zebras are instructed by the league to call in the home team's favor. It's so obvious.

To be honest, I don't think it would have mattered because GB was marching down the field on the final possession and could have scored if they wanted.

The rule sucks but it was the correct call.
So glad I don't have to watch the Cows another week.

I don't really care, but I do think Dallas would have zero chance vs Sea
GB will give them a game

Dallas beat Seattle earlier in the season.

And pretty convincingly.. especially in the trenches. That O line is probably the best I have seen this year. Solid across the board.

According to Officiating VP Dean Blandino, it was not a catch.

I saw his interview on the NFL Network.

My thing is, it should never be ruled a catch.

I am going to look out for that next season in every catch like this.
