Tommy Would be either made a first down or touch down. Either way,if Would be been ball game. I don't think a fixed game wouldve allowed it to be that close imho.

Re: I didn't think it was possible
We got knocked out of the playoffs last year because Williams did not want to commit that exact same penalty!!!

Re: I didn't think it was possible
I have started to calm down a bit today. I wish there would be some independent investigation of the referees involved in the game, but it probably won't happen because of the Shield.
Hopefully rule changes are coming and they are some good ones. Whatever rule changes come, historically they will be directly associated with the insane no-call. Like the Black Sox, this will be remembered for years, decades, generations. If New England wins the SB, it will simply cement their dynasty. If the Rams win, it will go down in history as the most illegitimate title in NFL history. The Rams franchise would basically be wearing a scarlet letter that everyone knows and sees. You might as well put a Fleur De Lis on their rings. They aren't as lucky as you might think. |

Your 'best' ref doesn't miss that call unless he WANTS to miss that call. Otherwise we'd have to consider that ref to be a complete idiot, and if he's a professional level NFL ref he's no idiot. SO, he deliberately did not make that very obvious call. There's no question about that. The only question would be WHY did he deliberately not make that call. That's the million dollar question we can all answer but we'll never verify. |
C'mon Man...
