but the receiver was defenseless.... so how is that not a penalty? i don't WANT it to be called a penalty but if that's the rule then how wasn't it a penalty?

Because he didnt hit with his helmet, and didnt hit the receiver above his shoulder.

 

[vas_a_morir]

CALLED IT. TWICE.

Let's make it 3 times. Touchdown incoming.

 

[NomarTyme]

fucking refs!!!!! gonna burn in fucking hell for sure.

 

[whytemyke]

Why can't Simms just say they fucked up? So afraid.

Because Phil Simms has been a coward his entire career and there's no reason for that to change now. Guy is just awful at his job.

 

[Cousteau]

getting fg's instead of touchdowns may haunt the Tebow's

 

[Kitschkraft]

Fuck off with that first down celebration Brown. Hate seeing cocky receivers doing that shit when they are losing.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

lol heath miller pulls his defender down, no flag

 

[Barack Lesnar]

If the Steelers score on this drive...Jezus Christ this is fucking bullshit.

I knew they'd score after that. this is so much like the detroit game it's crazy. Exactly same thing happened and this upcoming TD will lead their comeback

 

[Dartastic]

If the Steelers score on this drive, I'm going to be pissed.

 

[Dragon]

Holding.

 

[Sanjuro]

What the fuck kind of blocking was that?

 

[PhoenixDawn]

The refs need to just have their whistles completely taken away. There's no damn point in them even having any if they are going to screw up plays this commonly.

 

[Elfforkusu]

:lol, the Steelers are going to get 7 here thanks to that terrible call. I hope the refs enjoy their eternal stay in HELL

 

[GQman2121]

And thats why I don't watch much NFL...

I really took a huge step back this year myself. Between the rule changes and the flags/fines for hits, the game is just not as appealing as it once was to me. Fantasy and the fact that I live in a football city are the only real reasons I think I stick with it.

 

[Owzers]

damn, that missed call's coming up huge now

please don't lose this game Denver, i'll remember that fumble for weeks/months Xo

 

[Dutch Gronk]

Holding by Miller, good game refs. Why even bother playing? Just give it to the Rooney Family.

 

[mastershake]

Fuck off with that first down celebration Brown. Hate seeing cocky receivers doing that shit when they are losing.

i like you

 

[Ikuu]

Steelers probably going to win the game now.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

Because he didnt hit with his helmet, and didnt hit the receiver above his shoulder.

so is the rule that you can't hit a defenseless receiver helmet to helmet? or is it that you can't hit a defenseless receiver period? i honestly don't know

 

[smokeymicpot]

The rapist learned to rape from his grandma.

 

[Cousteau]

wow

 

[Bowser]

TOUCHDOWN!

edit: nevermind lol

 

[Brinbe]

HOLY SHIT

looked down. Ground caused it

 

[weekend_warrior]

FUMBLE!!

 

[Edgeward]

NOOOOOOOOOO, Rule it a fumble!

 

[Branduil]

If Pittsburgh wins it is due to that call. Their win would be forever tainted.

 

[Doorman]

This game is hilarious.

 

[Dartastic]

TOUCHDOWN??!?!? FUCK THAT. FUMBLE. FUMBLE.

 

[Derrick01]

Fucking asshole refs and asshole defenders. I don't know who I hate more.

 

[Dragon]

Rooney paying off the refs a la the Seahawks Super Bowl.

 

[PhoenixDawn]

so is the rule that you can't hit a defenseless receiver helmet to helmet? or is it that you can't hit a defenseless receiver period? i honestly don't know

The rule changes depending on whether the team's owner pays the refs/league a sufficient amount of money.

 

[Godslay]

Bullshit. NO TD>

 

[Bread]

Fuck

fuckin steelers shouldn't even have the ball

 

[Duki]

did the camera crap up for everyone or just me ffs

 

[Milchjon]

Fuck this shit game.

 

[Chris R]

Turrible refs strike again. Someone get them some LASIK.

Rooney paying off the refs a la the Seahawks Super Bowl.

Bad memories man, but Stealers going to steal.

 

[Elfforkusu]

so is the rule that you can't hit a defenseless receiver helmet to helmet? or is it that you can't hit a defenseless receiver period? i honestly don't know

First it was helmet to helmet, now it's "in the head/neck area".

Flag football starts next season, presumably.

 

[Spectral Glider]

For the love of Tebow, Redman, hold onto the ball and score!

 

[goldlion054]

Pretty lame on that no fumble call, now resulting in a near TD

 

[BobTheFork]

I don't know which will be worse. Complaining about Jon Fox or the refs if we lose this game.

 

[NomarTyme]

Damm it.

 

[brentech]

so is the rule that you can't hit a defenseless receiver helmet to helmet? or is it that you can't hit a defenseless receiver period? i honestly don't know

Can't hit a defenseless receiver in the head or neck.

 

[Dutch Gronk]

Ofcourse the refs call that TD. Really this is fucking bullshit.

 

[jmdajr]

WHAT!

 

[tycoonheart]

If the refs want to even this game give that ball to the broncos

 

[Jamie OD]

Oh come on!

 

[Oozer3993]

Pathetic officiating. They have to be fired for this performance.

 

[Xeke]

Bullshit drive. Refs handing shit to the Steelers. They should be ashamed to even score.

Fuck the steelers.

 

[Wes]

This game is a lot of fun.

 

[eznark]

Of course they rule a clear player down a touchdown.

Fucking incompetence. It's like watching the Lions.
