Perry not injured and gets strip sack

[pittstang5]

Of course, we get the ref crew that actually calls Personal fouls. What a joke

[pbmax]

He did get him with a helmet. Dumb play by Banjo.

[pittstang5]

Defense had an opportunity to bury this team, yet they are till here. WTF!!!

[pbmax]

His first foot when he caught the ball was already in the end zone, as we all know you must get both feet in bounds when you catch the ball in the end zone.

Or was this trolling that Finley TD catch?

[Rastak]

Well, you need both feet anywhere to make a catch. But end zone couldn't save him since it wasn't an established catch prior to crossing goaline.

I'll be honest, I turned towards the TV and I think he replay was already in progress. I have no idea on the rules if he landed one foot outside the goal line, broke the plane but never got his second foot down.

[Guiness]

Doesn't he have to make a bunch of "football moves" before not getting his second foot in?


I would think breaking the plane is enough, but I haven't memorized the rule book.

I agree with the breaking the plane. Had control, crossed the plane, it's good enough for an RB, why is it different for a WR?

that penalty on McMillan sucked. He did not lead with him helmet at all. WR was going down, the contact was incidental

[swede]

How about six field goals? When was the last time THAT happened? Jan Stenerud?

[Rastak]

I rarely troll on purpose.

In advance: Fire Slocum!

Yes, MikeP said he was not yet a running without two feet down so goal line cross was not good enough,

[Guiness]

Actually the call made perfect sense once explained.

I can understand it too, but IMO it doesn't pass the sniff test.

Clay out with Thumb injury

Joe Kapp. He did it all. Actually, he decked his own kicker in the pregame warmups and had to kick in that game.

[swede]

Weak holding call. nothing there.
