Illegal Bat The Ball-GATE, Detroit vs Seattle game

Just more proof that the replay system and what can be challenged needs a lot of work. No excuse that refs that are being paid to know the rules, dont. The ref in the end zone should have been fired. To have a blatant no call of this magnitude is inexcusable.

+1. That back judge couldn't have been no more than 5 feet away from the play. How do these refs NOT know the rules (illegal bat) at this level?

What was even worse is that all of the refs got together to deliberate & still missed the call

.

Inexcusable is an understatement.

It was under the two-minute mark and couldn't be challenged? But yeah, in what sport can a player advance the ball, puck, sphere out of play and possession not be awarded to the other team?

Fine. Your team should never put themselves in a situation where the ref's could decide the game anyway ... that's the mantra we live by, but geez! This is becoming almost s.o.p. with these calls & the Lions and they just take it as business-as-usual, dum-de-dum, go-about-our-day. Caldwell has about as much fire/motivation as a plank of wood, just sayin'.
