That one at the beginning of the game was clearly half a yard short at least and would've been 4th down. They gave them the first and next play was a big pass completion. I was SO pissed off.No clear evidence is my guess. Pretty sure he talked to guys upstairs...
The overturned non-fumble call was weird. At least two of the officials were blowing their whistles and waving their hands over their heads to signal the play was over while the ball was still moving. In "the old days" they'd simply come out and say that the play was blown dead so no fumble (admitting they blew the call). That's what I was expecting to happen. When they gave it to the Pats I was stunned.
In the NFL world of Microsoft Surface Pro, digital replay, advanced communications one might think they could ante up and buy a very small chip and put it at both ends of the ball..
Easy fix, but nothing in the NFL is easy.. except their system of justice.
I was wondering about that (I was watching in a bar, thus, no sound). I did not think the back made the first down. How is that not measured?Ahh...so maybe BB's combo of furious yelling and non-challenging at the phantom 1st down was because the refs refused to measure?
