blown call?

I probably would have gone with a no call. I don’t think Adrian Wilson (I think Wilson was covering Curits) was playing the man over the ball, I think he just tripped and ended up low on Curtis. Since it didn’t obstruct Curtis’ ability to make the reception, I was ok with the no call. Now the kickoff earlier that stayed in bounds, I don’t understand why that’s not reviewable. They might want to look into that this offseason.

Barely touched him. Good no call.

And I agree with 3k about the kickoff call. I had no idea what that call was. The ref said it went out of bounds, but they didn’t call an Illegal Procedure penalty so apparently it didn’t go out of bounds? Or it touched the player first (which it didn’t) and then go out? How is that not reviewable? If he’d have had possession and stepped out but the play wasn’t called, they could review it.

Or are they saying the ball touched the returner (which it didn’t) went out and the play was whistled dead, therefore the play is dead so you can’t review it? Didn’t they change that oddity in the review system this year? And if so, why didn’t the referee say the play was dead?

Made absolutely no sense. I was sitting with my cousin watching the game and I told him if I were Wisenhunt, I’d have thrown the red flag AGAIN. Just to annoy the officials.

in playoff games, Refs almost always don’t call pass interference unless it’s really, really blatant. In this it just looked like he tripped and Curtis still could have caught the ball. There were a lot worse cases by the Patriots in the 2001 SB that never got called…

I thought it was, but I’m sure people will be talking about that call for a couple weeks. It looked like he tripped him up, screw it, it’s over.
