I agree. The only ones that really bothered me were the Patten Interference, which we scored on the drive anyways so whatever; dosent make a difference.
The saftey was called right. It was obviously a tuck rule play (unless it was passed "backwards" as some people have said, which I havent seen the replay so i dont know). But if it did go forward, it was a tuck rule. Bottom line, its just a stupid rule. Nobody in their mother would think that Jake Plummer was trying to pass the ball right there, same for Brady in 2001, so I dont know why they rule it a pass. It was the right call on a stupid rule.
The penalty (noncall) that upset me the most was Cooleys PI. That was alot of valuble time lost because we didnt get the call that play. I'm pretty sure if you ask any fan, Redskin, Bronco, Cowboy, they all would have said that was pass interference. It was THAT bad. Those are the types of noncalls that really chap my ass. I mean it was so blatent it wasent even funny. I guess I could understand the Patten call, it was bs, but I could listen to the argument. I wouldnt even listen to the argument for a no call right there.
Whatever, I've vented. But like Mooby said; if it was that close, we shouldnt have let the penalties decide it. We still had our chances. Yesterday, in defeat, awnsered alot of questions I had about our football team, and needless to say I'm alot more confident about them after yesterdays loss, than I was after any of their wins.
