This is exactly what happened... just as saintfan described it. That's pass interference. His straight arm impeded Kamara from making a fair play on the ball. If anything, it was incredibly stupid play by Haden. If he jumps up straight, it's an incomplete pass. If he uses his forearm on, it's probably 50/50 on a PI call. A straight arm, a clear straight arm that did exactly what was described, was a straight foward call.

It was ticky tack but absolutely the right call. Anyone who has played basketball knows that even the slightless shove or straight arm on someone’s back affects an opponents ability to make a play on the ball. Had he changed his technique, it’s a no call. It was easily avoidable.

The PI foul call with Kamara leading to the first TD was so weak I expected to see James Harden at the free throw line (don't get me started)

Re: Whining on the Steelers boards

They changed the horse collar rule to what was called. It was legit.

Overall , other than maybe one or two calls, it was way better called than most games, way better than the CowGirls game.
