OT: Patriots

[CeltsfaninDC]

Not true, he wasn’t down by contact.

Doesn't matter if he was touched or not as far as calling it a completed pass. He was diving during the catch and had to maintain control all the way through the ground (unless ball never touches the ground).

I’m taking the play and basically breaking it in half. Part one - completed catch/establishing in bounds. Part two - football move and dive for the end zone. He grabs the ball and secures it, drops to one knee and reaches for the goal line. Should’ve been 6 points

You can break it up however you want, but thats not how it works. You assume he made the catch and THEN hit the ground but the rule is clear about this. Sorry, but you are 100% wrong here and arguing more just shows your ignorance of clearly stated rules that you've been shown here a number of times

Except the rule isn’t the case here. He had already made the catch. You can call it ignorance if you want to, doesn’t make you right or me wrong

SIGH...... yes it is ignorance because you are choosing to ignore the specific rule that regulates this specific incident which makes you 100% wrong. You've tried to break it up, you've tried to use different criteria and you've failed....... even Tomlin agreed it was the right call.

Well, I thought that was a catch (Bills game)...

[Bostondave]

What a slog that was for 3qtrs. Then we broke it open. We need Gronk to stay healthy to stand an outside chance. Our D is hurting right now. Thank goodness Bills have no real pass rush.

Glad to see Gillesley back on the field.

OK PNation, looks like Titans are up first. Then on to Pitt in the Conf championship, then it's SB against Phil.

What are you talking about? Phil will be eliminated tomorrow

[Bostondave]

Good game here. Phil v Atl

[Bostondave]

Wow. This is it for Atl. one play.

[Bostondave]

Wow. Busted play. Phi wins.

[KGboss]

Anyone breathing around here?

[Bostondave]

This clearly is not the place to be.

[ash_k]
