  1. Ticky tac or not they need to call it since they were calling Ticky tac the rest of the game.

    It's unacceptable that they missed it.

    Hilton not interferred with because he was inside the 5 yard cushion where contact is allowed. He was also on the ground before the ball was in the air.. The guy tried to get a flag by flopping on the ground like Matt Barnaby. It was the correct non call.. 

  2. If it isn't illegal contact, then it's holding. If it isn't holding then it's DPI.

    Boykin clearly grabbed TY's shoulder bad and kept him from making his cut resulting in the interception.

    Here is the play http://www.sbnation....-missed-penalty

    Its within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage so contact is allowed so illegal contact isnt relevant. He gets his hands on his shoulder pads but doesnt hold or push him. This is football  Sure they could have called it, but it would have been ticky tac. Shouldnt have been throwing the ball there in the first place. look how close they were.... Good game 

  3. Eagles fan here in peace.

     

    I have been on this board since Wednesday leading up to this game and have enjoyed and respected many of the Colts fans insights on our up coming matchup. Both Fan bases knew this was going to be a battle and we were not disappointed. 

    Many of the complaints I have read have centered on either the play calling or the penalties and I wanted the opportunity to make a couple counter points that you may but most likely wont agree with but for my own piece of mind im going to make them anyway.

     

    As far as the pass interference call. 

    The contact was legal because it happened within the 5 yards of the line of scrimmage. TY Hilton Ran a terrible route, gave up on the play and tried to draw a penalty. If it only takes that little bit of contact to bring an NFL caliber Wr down, than sign me up!

    The Horse collar tackle was a missed call no question about it and was a 15 yard benefit to the Eagles, however it was 2nd down and would have been third and 6 in two down territory against a gassed colts defense. Would they have made the first down without the penalty? We will never know, however that is not something that the game hinged on.

    Play Calling.

    I keep reading that complaint over and over and We Eagles fans have the same exact complaint. 3 trips to the red zone in the first half produced 3 points. 3 TE @ RB sets instead of spreading the Colts D out and Using McCoy, Sproles  Ertz or Celek in the flats instead of up the middle. The Eagles score touchdowns instead of field goals and we are not even having this conversation. Bad Calls happen its part of the game and what a great game that was. Good luck the rest of the way
