So the refs can mess up a major call that would have given us a chance to win the game anyway because we played poorly?
Got it
The refs are always going to mess up. That doesn't mean we have to.
Right, because that is what I said. :roll:
As a fan, you should reasonably expect professional referees to know the rules. Its called integrity of the game.
When your team loses IN PART because of ineptitude of those who should be above it (especially with replay at your disposal), you have a legitimate reason to feel frustrated.

No way they gave it all enough time to decide on two separate fu ble recoveries on one play. It should have been looked at closer. Instead, they wanted to finish the game on a horrible call on the field.

That's simply not true, the Ref took the ball from Sherman's hands, and another Ref. called it a knee down- non-fumble, so that play went the way the REF'S decided it should go, that's why there was no review.Missing_Clink":1w9kuycg said:That call would not have been overturned anyway. There was not a clear recovery by the hawks on film. Sherm had a chance but blew it
HawkinInLA":1vu7q1h2 said:On NFL Network they showed two comments from the NFL about the fumble. I think it was from twitter but I'm not on twitter so if anyone can find the comments and can post them I'd appreciate it.
The two comments seemed somewhat odd. The first said the NFL did review the fumble at the New York HQ but they did not see enough evidence to overturn the call. I'm suprised that they could review the play so fast as the next play was called pretty quickly.
The other comment said just because a team comes up with the ball, it isn't indisputable evidence that the person with the ball recovered the fumble. This seems to imply they agree someone from the Hawks came up with the ball.
The comments were from Dean Blandino. Seems like BS and I still don't get how they give the ball to the Rams..
WHO???He's gone ..Wtf you want to talk about someone that can't help us..Who cares what he does..kag0331":1ay6iso1 said:Don't know if it would get overturned the ball was by Sherman's legs not in his hands...
What's the real bummer is golden Tate walked due to Percy's monster contract and no one is talking about that, Tate is killing it in Detroit!

Outcoached??, Really????...Fisher didn't take the Rams to the Super Bowl last Year, so, NO, a few trick plays doesn't make him "Brilliant"HawaiiD":rv85hlej said:As far as I'm concerned we lost the game by being out coached again. This Jeff Fisher always pulls trick plays out of his ass that makes us look like fools? When will Pete and Co ever learn to expect the unexpected with this coach. Imo Jeff Fisher is brilliant and got balls that I wish our coaches had period.BigMeach":rv85hlej said:What I'm confused about is how it was considered to be Rams ball out of nowhere? Were they saying the knee was down at there was no fumble? It seemed like all the refs were at the pile, then a minute into it one goes over and points saying knee was down...
Hats of to the Rams congrats.

The recovery of a fumble in the field of play could have been reviewed in STL.
Replay official decided not to buzz down. I would have.

E-F Hutton has spoken. Abso-freaking-lutely right. I hate to call for anyone's head ... but this is the kind of stuff that ends up costing people jobs.
Your right it would make no difference - with the call on the field, what needs to be criticized is the fact that they decided after during the pile that the initial ram recoverer was down, then should have ruled a fumble declare who had the ball, they would then review it - it they would have went this more sensible route the right call could have been made, instead their hasty decision eliminated the possibility of granting Seattle the ball.. The question is why didn't they do this?nanomoz":2gdq8icc said:No way that that gets overturned anyway. Makes no difference.

MeanBlueGreen":2z3jxucu said:TheHawkDoc":2z3jxucu said:They lost the game because they gave two 75+ yard returns, a fake punt when everyone in the world knows that Jeff Fisher likes to run fakes, and the defense couldn't get a stop after the TD to pull it within 2. They gave up a first down run on that play and I thought we recovered it but they wouldn't have overturned it. This team is like the 2012 version without the fearsome running game.
Agreed. Shouldn't have come down to a fumble recovery...fake punt was the dagger
