Re: Divisional Round Playoff Discussion
Hate that rule it was an amazing catch. His knee hit and that should count as being down.

Well, now Dallas knows how it feels.
I think the right call was made.

I agree. It was called correctly per the rule, but I think it should stand as a catch.S197 wrote:Hate that rule it was an amazing catch. His knee hit and that should count as being down.

Re: Divisional Round Playoff Discussion
I don't get it. The ground didn't help him make the catch. It made the ball pop lose...but he held on.
Tough call

Jeez, I hate the Pukers, especially the whining freaking baby Mike McCarthy.
I hope Seattle beats them by 50.
Go ahead. I dare you.
Underestimate this man.

I hate that rule too. What an absolute load of crap that call was...S197 wrote:Hate that rule it was an amazing catch. His knee hit and that should count as being down.
They've legislated the #@!*% football right out of football and not only that, but as far as I'm concerned, he established possession of the ball when he came down and took a step, and then launched himself toward the endzone. I forget how the stupid role is phrased, so I guess that wasn't enough of a "football move".

The CALL was right... the rule is what is dumb. I thought it only applied to a TD, but I guess it can be anywhere on the field.

Re: Divisional Round Playoff Discussion
If anything, he gained full possession of the ball in the end zone, which would make it a touchdown.Mothman wrote: I hate that rule too. What an absolute load of crap that call was...

Man, every time I see Mike McCarthy's face I want to kick a puppy.

I feel the same way when I see Aaron Rodgers.

I'm not even sure the call was right. It looked to me like he took a step and intentionally lunged for the endzone.PurpleMustReign wrote:

GAHHH! That call really ticked me off.

It was close. The only reason I am not furious right now is because it knocked Dallas out and I don't see GB beating Seattle next week.Mothman wrote:I'm not even sure the call was right.

Yeah, but I wanted GB to get knocked out.

Re: Divisional Round Playoff Discussion
yeah...wow.
I can't get how it's not a catch when the ground didn't help him secure it.
He had possession when he rolled into the endzone.
And it looked like he was lunging toward the endzone with control of the ball.
Kinda question that play call with so much on the line and so little time left.
no matter...Seattle will destroy the immobile Rodgers and Co.

Karma's a ####.
The two teams I hate the most in the NFL now playing for the NFC title.
I almost want Green Bay to beat Seattle - I just dislike both so much.
