He waited until a month after the Pats-Steelers game so as to not arouse suspicion.

It would be nice to see a catch rule period. 10-20 years ago, was there this much of a kerfuffle? I don’t remember it being this bad.

Ball can bounce only once off the ground and still be a catch.

Goodell wants the catch rule changed to say: "Any TD catches against the Patriots must be ruled an incomplete pass".

So much for your theory of the league wanting to help the Patriots.

They've been convoluting this, and other rules progressively more so ever year, it seems. I think they're going to try to 'fix' this and only make it more incomprehensibly stupid. That will be my assumption until they prove otherwise.

They also need to make pass interference re-viewable. No single penalty can influence the outcome of a game more than a bad PI call.

I don't see why all penalties shouldn't be reviewable anyway. If it's not gonna be conclusively visually evident you'll hardly ever get one overturned, and you'd be risking one of your maximum of 3 challenges.
While they're at it, you should keep getting challenges as long as you're getting them right.
Also, I don't like automatic 1st down on any penalties really, much less on a 5 yard defensive holding penalty.
And 'half the distance to the goal' makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
But they'll actually look at the catch rule, so lets stick to that.

Not sure if it just for PI or if you can challenge a hold or an offside. Of course, another 15 minutes of watching a referee gawking at a monitor isn't really appealing, is it? |

I was the same way. Whatever it takes to get it right. And I'm still in favor of replay for some things. Did the receiver get both feet down, did the ball break the plane etc. But the officials now throw the rule book out and depend on replay to be the ultimate arbiter. Catch rule was simple. Did he have both feet down, was he juggling the ball, did he make a "football move" and the ground cannot cause a fumble. Now you can juggle, the ground can cause a fumble if relay shows it to be so. And whatever happened to "overwhelming evidence" to overturn a call? |
