At least a new team doesn't get a title before we do (ok technically the Cardinals won one after us but I think my point is made)

Did we all forget that you can't challenge in the last two minutes of each half? I"m surprised the booth didn't call for further review though. I thought it was a fumble on replay.

Hey guys, challenging without a timeout is kinda difficult

 

It's the last two minutes. The review comes from the booth. Teams can't challenge then if I understand correctly.

I can't believe they didn't even challenge that.

 

I just want to throw up right now.

 

Packers and Cardinals fan?

 

Yeah after they got us into the playoffs in 2003, they've always been my 2nd team.

 

And it's called a booth review in the final two minutes in a half.

Challenges with less than two minutes in a half are automatically challenged.

 

I could have sworn I heard Al Michaels say that it was reviewed by the booth, and it was confirmed a fumble.

That makes sense. That's two painful finishes to the last two seasons for you then. That sucks.

I'm starting to get used to it now. Last year was far worse though.

I think Michaels meant the booth was reviewing it and decided it was a fumble so they didn't call for the ref to look under the hood. I don't think the ref could've looked under the hood that fast. The production was sloppy though so I'm not positive.
