Another example of the officials being absent the last two minutes. No question, that catch needed to be reviewed. It would have been upheld - it was an absolutely AMAZING catch.
Add to that the missed facemasking of Thomas and Seymour on that play, as well as the multiple clock issues and you have a sloppily officiated game. That's nothing new - we've been seeing this for years. As bad as it was, it still wasn't as bad as SuperBowl XL between SEA-PIT.
There was NO missed facemask, look at the picture in the other thread, the hand is UNDER the facemask. You may argue holding, but in my opinion (NCAA Div 1 football official) there weren't any "trainwrecks" that got missed. Pats didn't execute. Face it!
We cannot blame the refs for the loss, Pats had too many opportunities to win the game themselves.
If his hand is under his facemask and he is able to control Seymour's head then what is he holding onto?
His hand is not ON the facemask, it's under, if you can show me a pic where his hand is on the facemask, I'll change my mind, but that is not a facemask.
Look at that picture very closely. His hand is through the bottom hole in Seymour's facemask. The fat part of his hand is through the hole and near Seymour's mouth. You can see the facemask bar over his white glove and then his thumb is outside on top of one of the bars on the facemask.
His hand is not "on" his facemask, his hand is through it.
You've gotta be kidding.
You can see EVERY PART of his facemask; there is no part of his hand or finger obscuring anything. His hand is, VERY clearly, under the facemask.
Glad you're not a ref....
You are correct sir, you can see EVERY part of the bars of the facemask. Pheenix11 is high.
You two are on friggin crack.
Where is the bar on the lower right (Seymour's right) side of his facemask? Its covered by white glove.

Forget the facemask for a second. Look at how Jarvis Green's arm is wedged between Seymour and Eli. That probably gave Seymour less leverage to corrall Eli and definitely prevented Green from getting a good hold of him. What a crazy break for the Giants.
