Week 8 Pats @Fins

Obscure Name · Oct 29, 2023

They were waiting to see if he'd break free.

bunchabums · Oct 29, 2023

Hiliarious -- no whistle if he leans for first down but once ball is out the whistle comes in.

lars10 · Oct 29, 2023

You can't just blow the whistle after the ball comes out.. I mean.. wtf.

NickEsasky · Oct 29, 2023

These refs

Shaky Walton · Oct 29, 2023

Ben Dreith 2.0.

MyDaughterLovesTomGordon · Oct 29, 2023

Oh, does the whistle just not actually matter now? The play is just over when it seems like it's over?

PC Drunken Friar · Oct 29, 2023

They can determine they blew a late whistle,right? Progress was stopped

I think that’s the right call but the fucking whistle was late

He wasn't going anywhere anymore but you play to the whistle, no?

EddieYost · Oct 29, 2023

That’s nuts. Guessing it’s not reviewable.

Mystic Merlin · Oct 29, 2023

That’s bullshit because if he got another half yard on a final push they would’ve counted it

PedroKsBambino said:
Whistle definitely hadn’t blown—but legit to argue forward momentum stopped

They can do that by blowing the whistle.

Pablo's TB Lover · Oct 29, 2023

Sure blow it AFTER the strip.

bigq · Oct 29, 2023

Waddle waltz

Buck Showalter · Oct 29, 2023

This is an incredible performance by the NFL Officials.

Absolutely brutal on so many levels.

JOBU · Oct 29, 2023

Fuck these refs. We suck but this is a bag job.

8slim · Oct 29, 2023

That kind of play happens a lot. Whistle doesn’t seem to matter. So weird.

PC Drunken Friar · Oct 29, 2023

Inexcusable

Dr. Gonzo · Oct 29, 2023

He was still fighting for yards and not down

Reverend · Oct 29, 2023

Yes, so not forward progess stopped.

shawnrbu · Oct 29, 2023

Elite.

Catcher Block · Oct 29, 2023

Cover sieve.

bunchabums · Oct 29, 2023

A spokesperson-level of equivocation there by Gene. Silliness.

Ed Hillel · Oct 29, 2023

That’s fine. Selling out is fine. At least they tried.

The whistle was two seconds after the ball came out

ifmanis5 · Oct 29, 2023

EddieYost · Oct 29, 2023

Nice D

PedroKsBambino · Oct 29, 2023

Was that a pick play or just atrocious d?

DeJesus Built My Hotrod · Oct 29, 2023

CFB_Rules · Oct 29, 2023

The whistle is just an indicator that forward progress is stopped. We've had this conversation before. The timing of the whistle in relation to the ball coming out is irrelevant.

DennyDoyle'sBoil · Oct 29, 2023

Well, it wouldn’t have been a turnover. Dolphins recovered. Just would have been third and longer, which doesn’t seem to matter much in this game.

Reverend · Oct 29, 2023

It’s rare that there is a play in an NFL game where I can say that I could have scored there without exaggeration.

heavyde050 · Oct 29, 2023

Wow, even Mac could have hit that pass. So wide open.

GPO Man · Oct 29, 2023

Gene has to cover for the atrocious officiating.

Arroyoyo · Oct 29, 2023

2-6

Blow it up

ShaneTrot · Oct 29, 2023

Why was that a fumble against Cincinnati last year? Same deal.

Mystic Merlin · Oct 29, 2023

That kinda play happens if you are in that spot, you’re selling out for the stop and so there are islands in coverage everywhere - any mistake is a TD

shawnrbu · Oct 29, 2023

Tua 6
Belichick 0

JOBU · Oct 29, 2023

Crispy

PC Drunken Friar · Oct 29, 2023

At least we will see the end to another game on CBS

jsinger121 · Oct 29, 2023

Talent and speed kills.

radsoxfan · Oct 29, 2023

On a lot of plays Duggar just seems to be guessing/randomly roaming around.

Zedia · Oct 29, 2023

What is Jon doing? Again.

Great

What about the guy still wrenching himself for yards to get to the first down line?

Harry Hooper · Oct 29, 2023

If you're Jack Jones lined up where you are, how could you imagine heading to the sideline was your assignment?

PedroKsBambino · Oct 29, 2023

What awful D

Ed Hillel · Oct 29, 2023

Not sure what Duggar was doing that play. Sell out or not. Don’t stand there.

shawnrbu · Oct 29, 2023

Ross is revolting.

This makes sense. But do they give it to the runner if he churns for another yard because the whistle didn't blow?
