It's not that I know the NFL rules that well, the rule was used in a few articles but they way it is in "news" I looked up the rules just to make sure
While I agree with you 99%, but it was actually Dee Ford that cost them the game. Had he not been lined up IN the Neutral Zone, game would have been over with the INT that followed on that very next play.
I'm right there with you buddy.I know it's not right, but the calls that were made and not made kinda even out over the course of time. There were calls that weren't made on all 4 teams on Sunday, and a few that were called that weren't supposed to. Would KC have won if the phantom hit to the QB helmet hadn't been called? We'll never know.
I STILL seethe over this one from 1985....STILL!!!!!! Todd Worrell even had cleat marks on the top of his shoe heel
FU Don Deckinger. Get some glasses.
I'd rather watch a college game than an NFL game, my son plays tackle football in Toronto and that game is better than an NFL game, you get more football and no commercials. They have a eastern team and a western team so at the end of the season they have a championship game either out west or east. Currently for the winter he is playing indoor tackle football. I do not rate the CFL as a football league
I should stay out of this post "but" I was a Cleveland Browns fan. I grew up in the 50s & 60s so I remember the NFL Championships. I was/am a fan of a local boy, Bernie Kosar. When that jerk Belachoke fired Bernie I swore off the NFL. I swear I put a curse on the Browns and quit watching the NFL, (yes, I was ahead of the protests.) I remember that weekend end after Bernie's firing. Beautiful weekend, I was building a 10'×12' shed in my former house. I was outside at 7am and outside all day. I thought, wow, I got a lot done, enjoyed the outdoors. I did have the radio on and the Browns losing was the icing on the cake. My Son and my S-I-L are browns fans and have asked me to take the curse off, no way. I hated Belachoke for years but now I thank him for getting my to stop wasting around 20 hours a week watching a bunch of millionaire whiners My opinion is without Tom Brady, Belachoke would have never seen a AFC championship game let alone win one. I'm a Ohio State Buckeyes fan but everything I've read about Brady is the guy's a football genius and the players listen/play hard for. I'd put my money on Brady, if I was a betting man, jmo. Btw, Bob Kraft and his baby momma, true love on her part, just saying.
We didn't deserve to be in the playoffs in the first place, dropping too many games we should have had and all the BS around the team. I had been calling for Tomlins head for years because of his downfalls, I have just accepted them and also now appreciate the things he does do well now that everyone else is calling for his head.
I did hear they are going to change the challenges to include non reviewable stuff, but we will see how that turns out.
