Hate that rule it was an amazing catch. His knee hit and that should count as being down.

I agree. It was called correctly per the rule, but I think it should stand as a catch.S197 wrote:Hate that rule it was an amazing catch. His knee hit and that should count as being down.
What a terrible call.The Breeze wrote:I don't get it. The ground didn't help him make the catch. It made the ball pop lose...but he held on.
Tough call
I hate that rule too. What an absolute load of crap that call was...S197 wrote:Hate that rule it was an amazing catch. His knee hit and that should count as being down.

They've legislated the #@!*% football right out of football and not only that, but as far as I'm concerned, he established possession of the ball when he came down and took a step, and then launched himself toward the endzone. I forget how the stupid role is phrased, so I guess that wasn't enough of a "football move".
If anything, he gained full possession of the ball in the end zone, which would make it a touchdown.Mothman wrote: I hate that rule too. What an absolute load of crap that call was...

Man, every time I see Mike McCarthy's face I want to kick a puppy.
I'm not even sure the call was right. It looked to me like he took a step and intentionally lunged for the endzone.PurpleMustReign wrote:

It was close. The only reason I am not furious right now is because it knocked Dallas out and I don't see GB beating Seattle next week.Mothman wrote:I'm not even sure the call was right.

Yeah, but I wanted GB to get knocked out.
