It's easy, and only takes a few moments.NFL fans can stop debating if Jimmy Graham got a game-clinching first down for the PackersHe was clearly short of the first. His forearm was so clearly short it’s absurd they didn’t overturn.
Not a very convincing win by the Packers. They lived dangerously on 3rd down all game. Hard to see the far superior 49ers defense failing over & over again like Seattle's D did.
Garoppolo turning it over may be the Packers' only hope.
Seahawks were the luckiest team in the league, winning so many close games.
This was bad though. There's almost 100 cameras for each game. I can only imagine the possible views & angles available.
It seems the NFL has by and large scrubbed this play from Twitter, and I had to really dig to find it. This was absolutely not a TD. It seems the Packers get about 95% of the judgment calls at Lambeau. Look at their offensive/defense ranks, which are both middle of the road. How is this team 14-3? I don’t believe in grandiose conspiracies, but holy crap this team gets a lot of breaks. If you’re an official in real-time, how can you possibly justify the TD call there? And you know it won’t get overturned because it is very close. But there’s no way an official saw that ball cross the plane because it didn’t.
If we had an “Interesting” icon, I would have given this post one....There is no doubt that the league would prefer a rematch of SB I. I don't think they are outright conspiring to make it happen, but certainly seem willing to tip the scales in that direction where possible.
