I just wish that it was in favor of the patriots for all the hilarious butthurt it would produce. but could he have batted the deflated ball that far? Would the pats WR fumble the deflated ball in the first place? Plus the Pats secretly filmed Kam's falcon punching practice so they would be able to beat it. /s I forgot to mention that these would be the questions asked 8 months from now during the offseason though | ||

And the seahawks do have both bad luck and bad calls against them. It just seems like everyone loves to hate them after that GB-game last season, which WAS lucky... then it all turned in the superbowl (key injuries, interception) so the the universe should be in balance, right? | ||

It's on the same lines as a punter kicking a balls out of the back of the endzone being a safety instead of a touchback. The Ref should know better as he watched it happen and it's pretty blatant. I'm sure he gets chewed out and probably just lost his chance at doing the playoffs. It's just a shame that such a great game is marred by this one call /s yeah this is most likely what happened. For obvious reasons, the league doesn't shit on its refs in public too often. Acknowledging that the call was fucked is about as close as you get to that. | ||

Night and day from a phantom pass interference call or something like that Its really a dumb rule. Why should it matter if its intentional or clumsiness that results in it going out the end zone? | ||

The idea is intentionally preventing a recovery. Presumably that's what he was thinking as a defender, though had he just made a ham-fisted attempt to recover it the ball probably would of went out anyway. The rule would be more obviously reasonable if the example was at the goal line. Even if they score it's not like it's an auto-win though. Seattle had time for a last drive and they had a pretty big play coming out of the touchback. | ||

I would just put both as no recovery, and either both touchbacks, both safeties, both touchdowns, or both placed at the 1. I would probably go with offense's ball at the 1, or just awarding the touchdown. Those seem to be the most logical options because the fumbled ball is technically still in the offenses' possession which is clear if it goes out the sideline not the end zone. | ||

Agreed. | ||

I seem to remember the Browns winning a game where Derek Anderson completed 1/11 passes or something close to it. I vaguely remember that the game was in Buffalo or against Buffalo. | ||

But not really, because the massive numbers of penalties and the overall rules mean that even shitty offenses score. | ||

His: Edelman, Forsett, McCoy My: Maclin, Randle, Wright I don't expect Randle to keep the starting job, but Forsett only has 1 good game so far. Edelman is probably the best player involved, but a bigger injury risk than Maclin and more competition. The potential of McCoy says no brainer but his injury may last quite a while. I think Wright is a pretty solid WR2 in PPR but a rookie offense is always a worry. My other RBs and WRs: Bell, ivory, Miller, Matt Jones Julio, Cook, Boldin Another consideration is that without the trade I can give up Jones to handcuff bell. With the trade I'll have to drop Jones | ||

With the trade I'll have to drop Jones I have no idea why he's offering you that deal. Edelman is definitively the best player in the deal in PPR, Forsett and Randle is probably a difference of opinion pick (I'd take Forsett), and McCoy is a throw in. I think McCoy is damaged goods which is terrible to say as a Bills fan, but I think it's a harsh reality. Even if you didn't have McCoy thrown in, I'd take Edelman and Forsett for Randle and Maclin. Edelman is a freak in PPR. Add on that you're weak at WR rather than RB, you should be hitting "accept" ASAP. The only reason I can foresee why your trade partner is doing this is if he loves Randle and is stacked at WR but lacking at RB. | ||
