Denver at Indianapolis (1 Viewer)

did anybody else notice on the off. pass interference call when the ref announced it was third down he didn't use 3 sequential fingers...he gave us all the "shocker" hand sign......

 
Yahoo claims that Peyton's fumble was recovered by Denver for a safety. I guess a fumble out of the end zone is not considered a fumble lost?

Sucks from a fantasy perspective.
Any other news here? Why wouldn't that be a fumble? Let's pretend I don't have a vested interest here.
Nobody technically recovered it for it to be considered a lost fumble.
If your team lost possession of the ball isn't it a lost fumble?
Technically...they did NOT lose possession of the ball. Did you not notice they punted on the very next snap? ;)
They were forced to punt though, not a choice like on fourth down. I just disagree with the rule.

I've noticed this, I think it might be a specific ref that always does this

How can you lose a fumble if the other team doesn't recover it?

NOBODY RECOVERED THE FUMBLE. Pretty simple. How do you credit a defense with a fumble recovery they never recovered? HOw do you charge an offensive player with a "lost fumble" if nobody recovered it?

This play was the same thing as if the snap sailed over Manning's head and out of the end zone.

 
Manning seemingly cannot throw deep with accuracy or zip. Neck problem flared up? Are we looking at Moreno getting 20-25 touches per game going forward?

It's been like that for as long as I can remember. It's to make sure the difference between two and three is easily seen from a distance.

If that were to happen tonight, Irsay would be waiting arms crossed for any reporter with a microphone to say, "See, I told you so!!"

I don't like the rule, you are FORCED to give the ball up. I think it should count as a turnover for the last person that touched the ball whether it was a receiver, running back or quarterback.

So write a letter.

When the competition committee reads the shark pool they will change it.

That's why the roof is open. The cold air on his neck is making it stiff. Similar to arthritis

 
Colts must being doing a great job on Welker, that might be the quietest 1st half of football I've seen from him in a long time.

You should buy yourself an NFL team, then tell your league members that the rule is stupid.

 
Manning's arm looks dead... I wonder if thats why he's been game managing and handing off all night?
It's been like that for awhile, he makes up for it with his incredible football IQ, preparation, touch passes and adjustments.
No he got drilled in the neck on that sack...
Does his neck have a huge effect on his arm strength though? It could hurt his ability see the entire field if it stiffens up and force him to throw the ball quicker than he wants to if he's afraid of getting hit up high again, but I'm not sure how much of an effect it has on his zip on the ball. I could be way off though.

Your a little late but I appreciate your thought.

I'll admit that I "Googled" this to see if it was true...
