Eagles vs Packers - TNF - Week 4 (1 Viewer)

[GoBirds]

How many times can you challenge PI in a game?

 

[Ilov80s]

I like Sanders, but he probably need just a little more seasoning...just MHO

Jones is just generally unimpressive to me but maybe I have just missed his good games

 

[Rove!]

Ball was underthrown...,I don’t think you can call PI on a replay there

 

[JaxBill]

That looked like PI.But review? Who knows?

 

[tonydead]

If they dont overturn this then I dont understand what the rule is for

 

[The Frankman]

HOW THE HELL IS THAT NOT DPI?????

Holy crap!!!

 

[Thunderlips]

I think the Eagles got away with one there. 

 

[renesauz]

have they overturned any this year?

the OPI earlier this game...opposite direction but yes

mildly surprised they didnt overturn this

 

[tonydead]

Ball was underthrown...,I don’t think you can call PI on a replay there

Underthrown as it went over his right shoulder?

 

[McJose]

Wow. Total PI.

 

[Deamon]

Rule is totally now pointless.  That was probably as over-turnable as they come.

 

[unckeyherb]

Wut 

 

[Insein]

Yea that's a bad call. But I'll take it

 

[unckeyherb]

Why have the rule?  

 

[avina1]

HOW THE HELL IS THAT NOT DPI?????

they aren't consistent with it... think the NFL told the refs to overturn if its especially egregious

 

[Deamon]

the OPI earlier this game...opposite direction but yes

mildly surprised they didnt overturn this

That was a booth review, not a coach challenge.

 

[modogg]

great call refs. do kind of agree that there was not enough to overturn that

 

[jasvic]

Well that's stupid, but thanks!

 

[Mister CIA]

Imagine that call deciding a playoff game.

 

[tonydead]

If they dont overturn this then I dont understand what the rule is for

 

[The General]

That rule change is stupid but why even have it if you don’t change that?

 

[Cowboysfan8]

If that’s not pass interference just scrap the whole stupid replay system lol

 

[unckeyherb]

Come on guys.  Let’s score a td here

 

[Ilov80s]

Guys, that is why we have replay: to get the plays right. It might slow the game down and take away all the fun of reacting in real time to the thrill of the sport, but at least we get the calls right. 

 

[Deamon]

great call refs. do kind of agree that there was not enough to overturn that

Seemed pretty obvious.  But it seems like it's going to be the most obvious missed call of the year in order to overturn it.  Guess that's just how it's gonna go.

 

[trader jake]

So, what's the point of the PI review if they don't then call it?  Thiught that was interference.  ??

 

[modogg]

they aren't consistent with it... think the NFL told the refs to overturn if its especially egregious

yup, agree. think if they called PI on the field and it was challenged there is no way they would overturn it

 

[Cowboysfan8]

great call refs. do kind of agree that there was not enough to overturn that

 

[JaxBill]

Underthrown as it went over his right shoulder?

To placate Sean Payton without actually improving the game?

 

[The Frankman]

they aren't consistent with it... think the NFL told the refs to overturn if its especially egregious

That's not egregious enough? He never looked back and shoved him in the chest. Nearly face masked him.

 

[renesauz]

on that last llok the contact wasnt as significant as I thought...still think it was PI, but not especially egregious

 

[Deamon]

Gotta think they scrap that rule next year.

 

[modogg]

Seemed pretty obvious.  But it seems like it's going to be the most obvious missed call of the year in order to overturn it.  Guess that's just how it's gonna go.

i think they want to really make a stand saying they won't overturn any calls on the field unless blatent

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

NFL  is completely broken. What a ####### joke on the no overturn 

 

[The Claymaker]

I think if the aren’t really gonna change the call they need to take it off the table. That was pretty clear to most people not rooting for the Eagles. 

 

[unckeyherb]

Nice!

 

[Deamon]

That's not egregious enough? He never looked back and shoved him in the chest.

It seems you're really gonna have to throw the guy to the ground to get it overturned this year. 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

And they had to go and ruin it by turning it into a political statement.

Missed it

 

[unckeyherb]

I think if the aren’t really gonna change the call they need to take it off the table. That was pretty clear to most people not rooting for the Eagles. 

And to most eagles fans

 

[modogg]

pretty weird watching the Eagles actually catch the ball

 

[billmatic]

So apparently the Rams/Saints PI is the measuring stick.  If you don't assault a guy a full second before the ball gets there then it's not clear and obvious

 

[Deamon]

I think if the aren’t really gonna change the call they need to take it off the table. That was pretty clear to most people not rooting for the Eagles. 

Was clear to everyone rooting for the Eagles too. 

 

[unckeyherb]

Yes again 

 

[Ilov80s]

MFL is completely broken. What a ####### joke on the no overturn 

It's almost like football and its rules are really subjective and therefore attempts to make them perfectly objective are pointless. 

 

[trader jake]

MFL is completely broken. What a ####### joke on the no overturn 

MFL may crash every week 1, but then they're good.  The NFL usually takes half a season to reverse their crappy new rule that's being enforced.  

 

[need2know]

Score here

 

[Deamon]

So apparently the Rams/Saints PI is the measuring stick.  If you don't assault a guy a full second before the ball gets there then it's not clear and obvious

I think this is how it's gonna be.  Yes I think it should have been overturned, but BASED on their seeming criteria for overturning it, I guess it was the right thing to not overturn it.  Don't think we're gonna see any or many overturned this year at all.  Just ditch the rule if that's the case. 

 

[unckeyherb]

Keep truckin

 

[-fish-]

Guess Sanders’ fumbles lost him some snaps.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

doug or groh or somebody really has it humming now
