Hairy call ---thats karma baby

I think, by and large, given the officiating and the injuries, that we were very lucky to leave Tampa with a victory. If that play had been ruled a TD, it's unlikely we would have even tried to overturn it, much less succeeded.

The instant replay rule is being interpreted this year as it was written - indisputable visual evidence. The play was declared incomplete, there was not indisputable visual evidence to overturn that assessment. Had it been incorrectly declared a touchdown, we would likely have been in the same boat.

No - that is NOT what the review call was. They didn't say there was no indisputable visual evidence to overturn the call. They said there WAS indisputable visual evidence to UPHOLD the call (not the exact language they used, but they explained why the call was correct, as opposed to explaining why they couldn't overturn the call). That is very different, and we left with a win BECAUSE of the officiating.
