OILERMAN Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Irrelavant. It was an egregious error costing the Titans the game. Are you fucking BLIND!!! No I'm not blind, I just know the actual rules in that situation. This is like the Tuck rule that cost the Raiders against Brady in the playoffs. Although it's really a fumble by the player the rule is called correctly by the refs. Once the refs ruled the forward progress was stopped(and it was) then there is no fumble and it's not reviewable. I though the Britt TD overturn was worse, the DB was sticking his hand out as well and the contact was incidental. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMJ Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 The Powers flop being called was a joke. Never seen an away team argue and win a penalty for something that wasnt even flagged. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WG53 Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 They never have called forward progress on any play I have ever seen when the player fumbled before hitting the ground. It is a cop out for a bullshit call. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OzTitan Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Mike Pereira @MikePereira Ruling in TEN/IND is that forward progress was stopped before fumble, which is not reviewable and the call was correct. Go kill yourself. The whistle doesn't matter, the fact forward progress stopped is the issue. And I already said the Titans had some bad calls against them but that's not why they lost. Their sorry defense is why they lost and the fact they didn't make the plays that were there to be made. In real time it seems to me the whistle was blown after he went down as per normal - it didn't seem like a tackle I would expect forward progress to really factor in, even that late in the game where they will be quicker to call it. In that case you could basically argue any tackle where the ball carrier is stopped and then knocked backwards is exempt from fumbles. So even if there is an argument they just blew a late forward progress whistle, then maybe they shouldn't have treated the tackle as one which can be ruled dead without him going to ground anyway. To me those are for when the carrier and defenders have reached a physical stalemate and the play is basically dead, or the ball carrier is being shoved back beyond a point where he'll unlikely be able to go down anywhere close to his forward progress. It's a fine line but in this instance the carrier appeared quite capable to break free all the way up until the point he started to go down and the tackle was assured - that to me sounds like a regular tackle where ball possession should factor in all the way until he is downed.

OzTitan Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 And besides the fact there is no way I agree that tackle should have been ruled dead before he started going to ground, since when does a "oops I meant to blow the whistle earlier" excuse fly? I always thought the whistle was it - if it should have been called earlier, so be it, but it wasn't. And had that stood and they reviewed the fumble and it was ruled Titans ball, could the Colts really complain? It was an extremely generous play to try and blow dead before he hit the ground anyway.

Guest Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 So is the honeymoon over or are you still all shitting on yourselves so happy the media forced the NFL to cave into union demand? Yay the union lives and we get to watch them hold us all hostage in a few years when their contract expires again! Golly I just can't wait....cause I'm so sure the next best 50 guys can't do it half as well. It used to be it was almoist impossible for awideout to get called for offensive PI outside the hashmarks. It used to be mainly just a thing they would call on a guy l;ke Jay Novacek getting the safety off him out of his break in the middle of the field.

Stan Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 It's funny how they don't even enforce the "delay of game" call anymore when a player takes the ball and runs with it or spikes it delaying the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
