That's mainly what I'm concerned about. Vikes had such a crap day with the refs in Baltimore and while two wrongs don't make a right, I'd much rather see PI called when it's blatant interference rather than "interpretive" interference, which I consider that last call to have been.

200+ 1st half yds and a TD for Cassell. There's no way Ponder's brain can function that well. :rofl:
A successful coach needs a patient wife, loyal dog, and great quarterback - and not necessarily in that order.

Wasn't the line judge, he always stays on the line and doesn't normally make PI calls. Not sure what judge it was, but wasn't the line judge. Just being technical. :D

All hyperbole aside, those are stats for a full game by Ponder most of the time. Cassel has played a great half so far.

Yes.

Yes, since you are not out of bounds until some part of your body touches out of bounds.

Didn't he reach 200 by halftime last week too?

Maybe not. I must have been dreaming.
No. He had 265 for the whole game and about 114 at the half. Still looked way better than Ponder though.

a clear view of what.
to me if you're going to call PI in the end zone it should be obvious for a guy that far from the play....it didn't look obvious to me even after 2 replays

but whateva...it's hard to call many times.
