I still don’t understand the explanation of the Panther fumble and Colts recovery. They said the colts player was out of bounds?  Replay was clear that he was not. Why have replay if they get it right?

 

Joseph

Pretty sure they kept the call on the field because by the time a clear recovery happened the whistle had already blew. That female ref made several bad calls, this being one of them.

I thought the same thing when they showed just the sideline view. if you watch the entire replay he runsdown the sideline and bats the ball toward the center of the field. He then steps out of bounds, running after the ball. From that point he is then the first to touch the ball again. I don't know if that consitutes a foul as he ran 20 yards after he stepped out but that is all I can figure if that does indeed constitute a foul.

They originally said he touched the ball AFTER going out of bounds. That was not correct.

 

However.

 

WHEN the defender touched the ball, the ball was on the white “chalk” of the out of bounds line. The ball becomes part of the person at thy point, so he was out of bounds when he touched it.

I was at the game and the call was complete trash… what had confused me however is when they initially showed a replay of it (before the challenge) it was pretty clear that he nor the ball was out of bounds, and then when there was a challenge that angle wasn’t show again.

I have to say I was impressed with how into the game the fans were for a pre-season game.

I was impressed by how many people were there honestly. First year as a STH so I wasn’t going to miss out on it but I doubt I would have gone in years past lol

Watched the game on NFL Network, and it was loud. Pretty impressive considering it was a preseason game.

I beleive after he tipped the ball to keep in bounds, he then stepped out of bounds and was the first player to touch the ball again. Not sure this changes what it should have been called( not sure of the rules on that)

Yes, this is exactly what happened... he was in before tipping it in... he tipped it in... stepped out... then was the first to touch it again.

that is exactly what I've been thinking, but I swear I thought the ball hit a pile of people on the field before our guy recovered... I will be looking for a better replay.

 

meh:  Colts Won

It doesn't take more then a few steps to be reestablished in the play. By the time he touched the ball again he was already around 10 yards downfield. That was not why IMO.

You can't step out of bounds and then be the first player to touch the ball.   Reestablishing has nothing to do with this play

Yeah, that’s what I got out of it too.  They said the BALL touched the white line, not the player.  Looked close though - I couldn’t tell whether it touched the line…

      AFC defensive player of the week?

      By richard pallo · Posted

      Bad analogy.  These rankings come out and can change week to week.  That’s why they do it.  No one scores elite grades every week.  They are number one right now.  The season just started.  Why is that so hard to understand?  I swear.

      Is Shane Calling Plays to Win Games or to Groom AR?

      Yes, but the element of Richardson running more in the latter quarter also contributed to the Colts ability to run it with success

      Do you see any progress with Richardson?

      By Moosejawcolt · Posted

      Totally agree. Now if Richardson is like throwing below 50% by the end of the season. Then maybe we have a case to worry. I really compare his career to Allen and I think of Richardson as an  Allen on steroids lol. They have very similar physical makeups but Richardson may have a stronger arm and is much faster. Allan has him in the build department.  Allan's rookie season was really rocky and if you look back. It really almost took 2 years till you started to see it. I just think fans need to be very patient as I think Richardson was even more raw than Allen coming out. You see the rawness but I also see the composure and making some good reasons. Yes, he throws picks but all rookie qbs do. Hell, I remember even Luck making the most ridiculous throws that resulted in interceptions. Just sit back and get your popcorn as this is going to be like a roller coaster. I really thought when people said playoffs. I was like.................really??

      The Bears knew exactly what the Colts were going to do on their last drive.   That's what my post was was about.   Maybe you quoted the wrong post?

      Steelers Colts Predictions

      By Moosejawcolt · Posted

      They are playing a sub par qb, Oline and a running game that averages like 4 yards.  The Bears actually scared me more on offense because at least they have the potential to break it open. Fields is a bad qb (passer) and just keep him in the pocket and make him play qb. Keep everything inside and the defense should be successful. Turnovers and field position is going to be huge in this game. No going for it on 4th down and punt the ball. I think this is going to be an ugly game lol.
