It was a bs call originally. The official couldn't hold onto the ball so he threw a flag to save face.

It looked to me like he never saw it comming, of course they didn't see a lot of things that day.

But throwing the flag doesn't help him save face. If he just picked up the ball would anyone have noticed that he didn't make the catch?

It would be announced today, but I'd be awfully surprised.

Lloyd obviously was frustrated and threw it back to the ref harder than necessary. He deserved a penalty.

"He’s the greatest quarterback to ever play the game. He goes from being a rookie that nobody is expecting anything from, to taking over with people saying he can’t do it, to winning three Super Bowls....It should already be obvious he’s the greatest quarterback to ever have played. "

It was truly a hothead move by the official, which is pretty disturbing.

He FLIPPED it back to the ref and the ref wasn't ready. Plain and simple. And how do you know it was "harder than necessary"? What's he supposed to do, waste 10 seconds while the official gets his head out of his arse and into the game and paying attention? The Official is supposed to be paying attention to begin with. That's his job to get and SPOT the ball.

I basically saw a wrist flip with a little forearm. The ref is therefore a pansyass in my book and can't catch a ball. However had he been looking (like he should be) nobody would be having this conversation.

One of the worst calls I have seen. Let's hope the refs this Sunday are better than that or the Pats will have a tough time winning the game.
