  1. It's a pretty straight-forward rule. If you don't have possession through the entire completion when you go to the ground, it's not a catch. It's not a new rule and wasn't a terribly difficult call for the refs. The only question, as they said, was whether there was a second move. There clearly wasn't, so the call was upheld. Give me a break. He caught the ball, hit the ground, and flipped it up. Saying anything else in blatant homerism. I've seen that call many times in college and the NFL. It's not a new rule. This just happened to be an extreme instance of it. Honestly, there's no way I'd interpret that he had control all the way through the ground. Receivers do that all the time. He caught the ball, got both feet/knees down, and flipped the ball up. The play ended when he got the 2nd knee down. no, because he went to the ground. if he didn't go to the ground it wouldn't have been an issue.
  2. i don't feel bad for him or the lions in the slightest.
  3. he had possession of the ball, but the ground caused it to come out, he didn't just drop it willfully. the call wasn't bad, the rule is bad.
  4. the bears got a break, but they deserved to win the game. they dominated the lions.
  5. wow, 31 seconds is MORE than enough time to get in. i see a johnson grab.
  6. remember the falcons game in 2008 that cost us the playoffs.
  7. way to get him before the sideline. this is not gonna end well.
  8. again, they get penetration at the point of attack, i've never seen anything like it.
  9. keep it moving. but i sense a turnover coming.
  10. 3rd and 3, if they don't get it, do they punt?
  11. the offense is scared of this defense.
  12. would you take a win if Cutler separated his throwing shoulder in the process? stafford will be back next week.
  13. did you see the lions all slanting the right way on that handoff? they know what we are running on every play.
  14. well, sneaky, count yourself lucky that you're playing against one of my teams.
  15. we are tipping our plays or something because we haven't surprised them at all.
  16. you absolutely sneak it on every play.
  17. oh yes, only my teams, only my teams.
  18. seriously, they have 20 men on the [expletive] field. check the amount of players they have out there. we try to pass, they're in the backfield, try to run, they're all at the line.
  19. the lions are the greatest team in the world.
  20. the lions have everything covered, they have 20 men on the field right now. just sneak it.
  21. i agree, it should have been a running play or a screen pass which seems to be working.
