Thanks!
BelichickFan said:Weak answer from the Head of Officials. He said the contact at the 10 was fine, Samuel didn't cut him off as they were looking for the ball. The said the call was an arm bar blocking Lelie in the end zone but that was trash, Samuel didn't have it extended and firm, it was just coming down in it's natural motion and flashed across momentarily looking like an arm bar.
B.S. call all the way.

You could tell he wanted to admit it but couldn't do it.pats1 said:Wow. Pereira can't even admit it.
What about the Bailey play?
Would you expect him to? Last blown call that was admited to just cost the Ref in question a rock through his window in the middle of the night.pats1 said:Wow. Pereira can't even admit it.
Yes but unless I really misread his body language he disagreed with it. He couldn't point to anything that he thought was PI and just talked around it a lot.hwc said:Actually, Pereira said that, as a matter of policy, he wouldn't second-guess judgement calls by the officials, such as pass interference. He never said whether the pass interference call was correct or not.
NEM said:Bullcrap, allthey had to do ws take another minute to stop and fereze the replays (there were three different angle) and anyone with any intelligence could have determined the ball went over the goal line and out....
They showed different shots from different camera angles and that he still couldn't say but that he just didn't know. On the Samuel PI as another poster said they only showed one angle and that the side ref was in the right postition. Of course he never mentioned anything about how that judge never threw the flag. Also never said anything about how the ball was uncatchable to begin with. Lelie sells the whole thing by pushing off on Asante to fall forward at the end, making it look like he was pushed. Great acting job on his part, and IMO, what made the goal line ref throw the flag.DelawarePAT said:You know...I actually have no problem with the Int return...I agree with the official on NFL network.....inconclusive. Shear physics would lead you to believe the ball did cross over the pylon or perhaps inside the pylon. It pains me to say this but the only issue is the fact that we gave up a 99 yard pic return to begin with. Trying to blame the refs and get us of the hook for that mistake just doesn't make sense.....even if they may have erred on the original ruling. That being said....within a week or two the only thing I'll remember from that play is Watsons unhuman like effort to track down the ball.
Translation: Yup, we screwed up some calls and there is no putting that genie back in the bottle. Live with it.Mike Pereira_Dir of NFL Officiating said:...unfortunately we had a couple games where we just weren't at our best...we have to focus on going forward to ensure that some of the misteps don't happen again...
