This whole idea that you shouldn't call the penalty there is the problem.

If this is a penalty week 1 in the 1st quarter, it should be a penalty in the superbowl on the last drive.

This notion that the game is too big for the rules to be enforced is insane. You guys want refs to be perfect, but then want them to not call poo just because its an important game and the call is "weak" is trash.

Call the games the same, fug out of here.

No, but you're right in that the issue is consistency.  People are saying don't call it there because they didn't call it earlier.  So why call it with the game on the line?  The refs set the tone of physicality and how handsy guys can be from the outset of each game...  if you allow a team to think that level of play is acceptable all game and then BAM!  GOTCHA!  Call it with the game on the line in the 4th quarter?  That's wack.  You either call it everytime or you don't.

It's why our Super Bowl was such a sham because the refs dictated from the outset that the Broncos were allowed to play with a different set of rules than we were, and if we tried to use the same level of physicality they played with, it was a penalty.  But they could yank a guys fuging head off, they could get 5 yard starts with their edge guys, and 5 yard jumps with their tackles while holding the whole fuging game.  

Point is, the refs have way too much fuging power and not a single iota of accountability.

But that's the problem. One moment it's a penalty, one moment it's not. We want CONSISTENCY. If you're gonna call it right there, then call it ALL GAME and ALL SEASON. If you aren't going to call it early game, then don't call that weak ass sh*t in the biggest moment of the game.

Uncatchable doesn't matter with holding.

The call was trash but that's not a valid criticism here.

 

The face of the NBA gets no call despite getting fouled at the end of the game to win it.

 

Some calls you just don't make! This is for every sport no matter how big the star is. You don't end games because of a Zebra making a call.

Every game matters. Refs don’t have intentional moments where they choose not to ref. 

Orchestrated rigging doesn't happen but the refs absolutely interfere unnecessarily in big games it's always happened they are as biased as any other human being.

It isn't week 1 in the first quarter of a game that really doesn't matter when there are 16 more to be played. Terrible comparison.

So… the rules change from week one to the last 2 min of the game,,, I did not know that

The way Bradberry had his arm around him and grabbed him made it look worse than it was. I don’t think he affected the receiver at all and it was a bad call, but it wasn’t nearly as egregious as many calls in this game and previous super bowls

I honestly think that was the problem.  That call is either the Side Judge or the Field Judge, who is line up pretty much in the corner of the end zone (maybe a few yard inside).  From his angle, I think that probably looks like the receiver was hooked and it impeded his cut.  Flag comes out. 

If he thought it was a hook and it impeded the receiver, it is a call he has to make.

Watching the Eagles lose and knowing how deeply hurt their fans are....make me smile .

The Eagles defense gave up 2 walk in TDs in this game with the exact same play. I think they should look inward on this L. I love it.
