This. When the heck is the actual kickoff?TSN is showing this damn NHL Hall of Fame induction instead of the game. I hate hockey.
Wild Donkeys.
Prater can boom 'em, but his accuracy leaves a lot to be desired.
I think whatever team has the highest rushing yards at the end of this game will win. Obviously both teams will have to pass the ball but rushing the ball will help control the clock, field position and keep the others team offense off the field. I guess I don't expect the track meet you do.Good opening drive. Like I said earlier, I expect Denver to throw all night. Time to see how the 'D' will do against Roethlisberger. Love the atmosphere of this game already. Two of the NFL's best this season.
He's filling in for Ryan Clark alongside Polamalu.
No way. You have to maintain possession as you go to the ground, that ball was out before his knee was down. I don't care for the rule, but...
Yep. Either way, it is a stupid rule. If you catch the ball and get two feet down, it should be a catch. Stupid.
I know. A couple weeks ago, Ward caught a ball in the end zone, both feet down, ran through the end zone, went to the ground still with possession, ball popped out after he hit the ground out of bounds and they ruled it incomplete. I don't get it.
Because ANY other year that would've been a completion. He caught it with two feet down and it was stripped out of bounds.The refs are doing as they are directed, but really they need to fix this. See rant thread for my rant.
doesn't make a damn bit of sense.
EXACTLY.If the same thing happened on another part of the field, different ruling. That doesn't make any sense to me.
Apparently they were going for it anyway. I think it makes more sense in that context.
No. It doesn't matter where he is on the field.
And they missed Farrior getting yanked by the jersey on an earlier third down conversion. It happens, though I was hoping for at least page three before the griping about officiating started.Pfft. I saw a Denver defender get held by the JERSEY much worse than that earlier in the game and it wasn't called. Booo.
I understand not liking the rule, but it really isn't subject to much interpretation. If you don't maintain the catch along the sidelines when you fall to the ground it is incomplete. They've been calling it that way all season.Because ANY other year that would've been a completion. He caught it with two feet down and it was stripped out of bounds.The refs are doing as they are directed, but really they need to fix this. See rant thread for my rant.
No it wouldn't.
There is absolutely no way you could tell where that ball went out from the view we had on the TV.
Seems to me like if that happened in the middle of the field, they would say possession then fumble. Otherwise, how would a WR ever make a catch and fumble if he decided to fall down?I could be wrong though. I'm totally confused on this.
forget it. they're rolling[/otter]
