Clear cut face mask penalties ignored

[Narcosys]

what in the world are you talking about?!  Angerer is not even part of the recovery.

Oh my apoligies, it was 50, not 51.

These are the refs we wanted remember?

 

LOL - the media forced the issue down Americas throat spinning that story!!!   Clearly the replacements were not as bad as they seemed - boy the media sure can create a firestorm story!

All refs miss calls and I am sure that there were a few calls that went for us in the Ravens game that were not called. I am sure there were a few no call holding penalties.

Bringing this up is just sour grapes. We got beat by a better team on Sunday.

I don't think it is sour grapes. Facemask penalties are a safety issue, holding isn't. They non calls weren't incidental, they were intentional and border line malicious. The calls wouldn't have changed the outcome of the game any way.

The replay shows him bringing it into his body and a baltimore player falling on him.  Down by possession.

 

The replay shows him (freeman) falling on the ball and as soon as he did, the ball squirted out.  That's when the baltimore player grabbed it and took it away.  Colts shouldn't have been awarded that recovery.
