Hey Dilfer -- his TOE scraped the ground before the elbow touched out of bounds.

 

[Joe Summer]

Wow, he had both feet down, tht was a blown call.

Only thing that makes sense is that the booth thought that he was still juggling the ball at the moment when his toe scraped the ground.

 

[fasteddie_21]

Wow, he had both feet down, tht was a blown call.

Don't think so. One foot down.... then elbow (out of bounds)... then hip... then other foot.

Um no. He scraped his left toe WAY before the elbow.

 

[billmatic]

Both feet clearly touched. I assume they're saying he didn't have control until after his left foot left the ground.

 

[DZ2300]

How do you miss that both feet were down?!?

He definitely tapped the left foot and had the right foot down as he made the catch.

I thought he didn't have control of the ball (the ball was still moving in his hands) when that first toe was on the ground.

Dilfer sucks as bad as he did as a QB

Yeah that's probably it.

I thought it was incredibly close. First look I thought he had his feet down when he got control. Then back side replay I wasn't sure if left foot came off ground first.

I'd probably have left call on field stand,

 

[Statorama]

He got both feet down....Dilfer is nuts

 

[SportsGuru311]

Finally Rivers looks excited to be playing football again. The whole team looks Charged. Pardon the Pun. LOL

This is what I saw. Ball was still in motion when the feet were down.

 

[Statorama]

What?

 

[GregR]

McCain is getting eaten alive. Was worried about both he and Johnathan Joseph tonight as both looked bad in preseason. From what I can see Joseph seems to be fine, but McCain has not gotten back to being the guy he was 2 years ago. Even last year before going on IR he slid a bit, but was hoping he'd rebound. I'd keep going at him if I was Rivers.

 

[Statorama]

That's just a blown call. There have been more bad calls this weekend than the first weekend of the replacement refs.

 

[GregR]

Even apart from the points, would have liked to see Bullock attempt the FG just to see how much leg he's really got.

At first I thought his left foot came off the ground before the ball got there. But I just went back and watched it again during halftime and I think it's pretty clear that both feet were down after the ball got there. Looks like a catch to me, but maybe the ref didn't think he had control before the elbow came down.

 

[Buckna]

Hou has had nothing go there way since the very first bobbled kickoff return but they can't rely on that as an excuse. Good teams go in and make adjustments and find a way to fight back. The Texans of old would fold at this point, they better not revert. Let's see what you're made of.

 

[renesauz]

I'm OK with the idea of a second MNF game in week one, but a second half kickoff after midnight EST is nuts. These games need to start an hour earlier or they need to scrap the idea and go back to one game.

 

[Houston turmOiler]

The matchups Wades defenses keep getting caught in drive me nuts.....get off the field on 3rd down! Freaking blitz, get beat in man, rinse and repeat

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Dilfer sucks as bad as he did as a QB

Always remember, Dilfer > Marino, Tarkenton or Fouts

 

[madviking10]

Suzy Kolber was looking hot tonight. hubba hubba

 

[timschochet]

Wow. Malcolm Floyd!!

 

[madviking10]

Dilfer sucks as bad as he did as a QB

Always remember, Dilfer > Marino, Tarkenton or Fouts

HEY !

 

[renesauz]

And there's Floyd.

Agree with above on Suzy

 

[Buckna]

That's just a blown call. There have been more bad calls this weekend than the first weekend of the replacement refs.

These Ref's have overturned a couple of calls on review tonight that were all extremely close. Whatever happened to conclusive proof?

 

[renesauz]

Hmmmmph....just noticed I joined the 10000 post club tonight

 

[Houston turmOiler]

Dilfer wants to make out with Rivers....shut up already

 

[Breesisdaman]

Finally Rivers looks excited to be playing football again. The whole team looks Charged. Pardon the Pun. LOL

I am guessing I better make Rivers my #1 waiver this week. He is looking sharp

 

[Kenny Powers]

Even apart from the points, would have liked to see Bullock attempt the FG just to see how much leg he's really got.

Was it a fake FG? I missed that play and he shows up as 0/1

 

[Houston turmOiler]

Whattaya know, 3rd down conversion....jeez

 

[Buckna]

another 3rd down given up. Yeesh

 

[renesauz]

Is Mathews hurt already?

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Suzy Kolber was looking hot tonight. hubba hubba

The rare woman who's gotten prettier with age. I think she's way hotter now than she was eight-ish years ago with that short haircut.

 

[Wise Old Owl]

Mathews was looking good earlier, any idea why they went away from him?

 

[gambla]

Why is brown in? Mathews hurt?

 

[Kenny Powers]

Its not midnight where theyre playing.

 

[Kool-Aid Larry]

if hou can't close this deal they should probably quit the league

 

[GregR]

They reviewed AJ's sideline catch and called it incomplete, so out of FG range.

 

[Nucker101]

Mathews has to be hurt.....right?!?

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

GO WITH MATTHEWS!

 

[Houston turmOiler]

The Phillips honeymoon is over....this defense sucks

 

[Nucker101]

#### here come the AJ garbage points now.

 

[Spin]

Hmmmmph....just noticed I joined the 10000 post club tonight

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Are the Broncos going to be able to compete with these guys?

 

[renesauz]

SD has had a love affair with Brown for a couple years now. Hopefully they were just giving him the series. Mathews was playing well I thought.

 

[GregR]

The flag they picked up was for offensive pass interference.

 

[BigSteelThrill]

#### here come the AJ garbage points now.

Nah, gonna be more Schaub to all the other guys.

 

[Kenny Powers]

Yeah, I thought I missed something but where is Mathews?!! Do they not even have ugly sideline reporters for this game?!?!

 

[Pipes]

Texans defense is awful

He did shank one earlier
