It’s NOT a good rule.
Anyone who’s ever played CATCH with a football knows: THAT, was a catch.
As I said, I have HATED this rule... passionately... since they first came up with it. Some fine catches have been over-turned because of it. Including, yesterday... with the game on the line, one of the BEST catches in the history of pro football.
It’s a travesty. A National Disgrace.... on par with Obama not going to Paris!
This week, I am sure that Packer fans like the rule...if it happens to Nelson or Cobb next week, they won’t like it.
Football has become over-officiated to the point it’s becoming unwatchable.
It’s not a karma thing. The correct call was made yesterday. Last week was not.
But, that one issue doesn’t mean Detroit wins the game, in fact, the probability to win for Detroit only dropped a small amount after that play. So tosay that Dallas mde the game versus the Packers on that one call is a bit disingenuous.
Odds are Rodgers takes GB right down the field and score anyway with little time left on the clock.
I think it was a mistake for the Cowboys to go long on that 4th and 2. Get the first down, milk the clock to leave GB with less time should the Cowboys go ahead.
