    He pulled the ball back of his own volition. Should not have been a first. If the Packers had forced the ball back it would have been the right call. But his forward progress was ruled stopped on the field, which means the spot was a judgment call and therefore not subject to review.

    In short, the refs were wrong thrice on the same play.

    That is a beef I can see. If he was down after that and was not contact by the defense, then I say pull it back.

    But the end of his forward progress and the pile of bodies led them to conclude SOME defender had a hand on him.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
