tahuyaman Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 It was as obvious a fumble as can be. The receiver made about 3 football moves. Real timeA player can make all the "football moves" he wants. The "football moves" need to be conducted while he also has full control of the ball.

ColtsBlueFL Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 oh shut up. i said what i know to be true. I am not going to do your homework for you. Tripplett said after the CIN debacle that he only reviewed the goaline. Look it up yourself. Second, do you really not know that the coaches and analysts are not to talk crap about officials??? i said nothing that needs proven to anyone with an average football IQ. You are proving in this thread that you are lacking. You originally were saying this was incomplete for the same reasons the Calvin Johnson TD play when he went to the ground VS the bears was incomplete. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT AND YOU KEEP QUOTE MIKE PEREIRA THINKING IT PROVES SOMETHING. IT DOESN'T PROVE ANYTHING! It's claim of fact, your burden of proof. Not on me to prove your point. But being nice, I tried anyway and found a link, but they pulled the video. It's a conspiracy! Right? Next, you claim my explanations were unrelated and then you go talk about calls in previous games. You can't have it both ways. (besides, there was no definitive replay showing Chapman tripping the runner, just looked very possible. I thought I had a shot where his hand tripped a foot, and another said no it was the other foot, Someone else said overhead shot was only decent angle, but they never showed that much. Shows there's not clear cut replay for an overturn. But I thought it was down by contact) Then you state: You originally were saying this was incomplete for the same reasons the Calvin Johnson TD play when he went to the ground VS the bears was incomplete. Not true! Here is my first post on the subject. I continue to stick by that until someone shows me a video of the dude taking 3 steps with the ball completely secure before getting it knocked out. I'll change my mind. Until then, try to muster some reading comprehension and get back to me on the content. http://forums.colts.com/topic/24481-we-just-got-robbed/#entry684306 Hint: Ref judged he had juggled the ball so never had full possession. That is the point of dispute on this play that replay had to prove wrong. The only reason the Johnson thing was even mentioned was to try to illustrate (not very well, apparently) that what appears to be a catch or possession isn't always what fans think. Neither player was deemed to be in possession, or complete the catch, and their pass incomplete. One the ground knocked it loose, the other an opponent. But fans think both were a catch. So this disparity between what fans think and refs call is a disconnect in interpreting the rules and judgement. I did not nean to invoke the 'going to the ground part, but without explaining it well, I can see it being inferred by some. You tend to distort items to create a straw man. So, you are also more credible than the former VP of Officiating? Get real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

braveheartcolt Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Do you have a video or .gif shoeing that, with firm control/possession of the football? I showed two refs simultaneously signalling Incomplete from two distincltly different angles, and the one went further and made the juggling (not in control of the ball) motions. You have to show proof that did NOT happen (have firm proof the ball was not moving as in maybe not in full control) in order for 3 steps, football moves (no such thing anymore in the rules for the last few years), dancing with the stars or anything else comes into play.. And I saw in real time it was a bang-bang play. You don't get ban=bang plays when someone gets 3 steps. Former Vice President of NFL officiating agrees- Mike Pereira @MikePereira22 DecThat was a bang-bang play in KC - in real time, you have to stay with the call there. So not everybody sees it the same. I wonder what folks here would be saying about that play if that was TY Hilton getting the ball knocked out. I already know the answer to that,I fear.It was a fumble. He had control. And yes I have it on game pass, and watched it several times. You are wrong. Totally wrong.

Well I have NFL rewind, but I'm waiting for someone to show me... but no one has so now I will have to find time to go in rewind and do a frame by frame. Don't know what I'll find but in real time, and in slo-mo replay on DVR I kind of sided with Refs. If rewind on my PC shows me the ball didn't move any at all and he had clear control and possession and had become a runner, as the catch had been completed, I'll admit it. but if not... well ... I'll also document those 3 full steps (or lack of) people have been adamant about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tahuyaman Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 you still haven't sited specific incidents in the game that made it the most one sided you have ever seenThe timliness of the penalties. Plus the penalties themselves. A horse-collar which wasn't, the taunting which wasn't. Vitually every penalty the Chiefs had took away a momentum building play. I don't know why you are having such a difficult time coming to grips with it. That game was just another example of the type of officiating we have seen over and over in nearly every game this season. And the officiating has nothing to do with bias or fixing games so to speak. Officials get caught up in the game. They develop tunnel vision and start looking for certain things instead of looking at the game as a whole/ In one game Sunday, I saw an offiial grab the flag in his pocket preparing to throw it while the QB was calling the signals. When the play was run, he threw the flag. I figured the penalty was illegal formation or some other pre snap infraction. It was offensive holding. Was the official omnipotent? Did he know the left guard was going to hold before the left guard knew? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
