why wasnt that a fumble?

[xXxBretWeedxXx]

I'm still pissed about this call. My roommate left the house because I was throwing such a fit. There was no way that was indisputable, mainly because I'm disputing it. Way to go refs, hand the Saints 7 points. God I wanna break more poo.

If you look at the replay, he catches it with 2 hands and pulls it in as he places his feet on the ground... then as he's getting tripped up and tackled, he moves to catch himself and cradles the ball in one arm against his body and puts his other arm out to brace his fall (to maybe stay up).

The Ball was then stripped as a defender stuck his hand in on the way by and popped the ball up. Marshall then caught the ball and the ball was secured by Marshall on the ground along with the WR's foot.

The Ball was caught, and stripped and recovered.

It was a blown call... But what do I know. I've been wrong before. LOL

I didn't get a clear look at the play at wwork but it looked like an obvious fumble to me.

I noticed the refs took a long time reviewing it what was their excuse?

They got it wrong and they also missed a clear helmet-to-helmet hit on Jake toward the end of the game.

Anybody catch Boger's accent?

Sure sounded cajun to me.....

If Marshall coulda hung on to the damn ball it wouldn'ta mattered...

We were jobbed on that one...

And how many times after refs get a call wrong and give the ball back to the other team, that other team marches right down and scored....

Sickening

It was a fumble and they had the call right to start with. The thing is how do you really tell if someone has pos. I mean it looked like it to me but ask someone else and they could say not. IMO you should not be able to use Pos as a reason to overturn.

They would have said he didnt have Pos. They tried there best to hand the game to the saints IMO. That black Ref always screws us IDK why but he dose.

I'm glad we won. I remember saying that I hope that call doesn't come back to bite us.

I was absolutely sure the refs fuged the call up until I saw it replayed at full speed. I still think it was a fumble, but after seeing it a game speed I understand the thinking. Somewhat, kinda.

Yes it's conspiracy crap but I bet that would have stayed a fumble had Brees not been close to Marino's record.
