I can see their point, kinda, I guess he wasn't "set" for a full second like you're supposed to be, but that kind of stuff happens all game long in every game around the league.
It was a really, really touchy call. Not that kind of call you want to see take points off the board that's for damn sure.

Actually they said the RB was in motion toward the line of scrimage. Well, Portis wasn't moving at any time so first they blew who even did it and then when you look at the replay no one is moving towards the line. Thrash is the only motion guy so it has to be on him. When watching the replay he clearly walks the line of getting set but it is NOT an obvious penalty and I think I agree with the guy who asked whether the Pack would be complaining if the call wasn't made. I am sure we'd have never even heard about this.
Man I am so pissed off. I am glad we are are not hearing too much crap about how westill should have won if only we had played better. This is the damn NFL where the difference between the best team in the league and the worst is almost nothing. You can't be expected to play both the team ooposing team and the Refs. The refs for this game ought to be suspended for one game and made to publicly apologize for the call.
This is what pisses me off about Instant Replay. My feeling is that if anything is going to be reviewable then EVERYTHING should be reviewable. It makes no logical sense that we leave some calls up to the ref with other calls being reviewable. Explain to me why this play shouldn't be reviewable(versus why others are) and I will give you props.
