Down

 

[Mystic Merlin]

He’s down

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Sumbitch was down by contact.

 

[Ale Xander]

Down?

 

[Obscure Name]

He was down.

 

[DJnVa]

Not down.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Not down.

 

[DJnVa]

He was down.

It’s not college. He got up.

 

[Conigliaro's Potential]

That play has to be reviewed - looks like a fumble to me!

 

[luckiestman]

That was a great blitz pickup

 

[johnmd20]

Oh FFS, they called off the play after the snap. I hate those BS timeouts.

 

[axx]

That was a fumble. Colts need to go faster there.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

this needs to be looked at

 

[rodderick]

I can't recall a team being any luckier than the Bills today. Just insane.

 

[mauf]

That was a fumble.

 

[bankshot1]

that might have been a fumble

 

[semsox]

He was not down

 

[johnmd20]

Frankly, that is a fumble.

 

[cshea]

Fumble

 

[BigSoxFan]

That might be a fumble

 

[Mystic Merlin]

There’s no way he got that TO in

 

[johnmd20]

Although I'm rooting for the Bills, in general. But chaos is more fun.

 

[Miniman]

He got back up. Fumble.

 

[mauf]

I can't recall a team being any luckier than the Bills today. Just insane.

Not really. That was a game-ending fumble that went uncalled. If it’s called now, it’s only because McDermott burned his last timeout.

 

[BornToRun]

Well that’s game if they review it. Bright side is Brady downing the bills in the bowl is still on the table.

 

[DJnVa]

But isn’t there some weird “down by contact” rule?

 

[Ale Xander]

Yeah he got up before being touched

 

[mikeot]

Ah fuck, I want overtime.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Rivers took his Chargers luck with him, clearly. What a stupid play.

 

[Catcher Block]

That's a fumble, and it sure seemed like Indy got the snap off in time.

 

[Conigliaro's Potential]

It shouldn't be a question of whether the Bills got the timeout in - the officials *have* to whistle right before the snap to review that themselves inside the final 2 minutes.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

But isn’t there some weird “down by contact” rule?

He didn’t give himself up or get touched while down

 

[Obscure Name]

So they weren't going to review it without the timeout? What a stupid league.

 

[StupendousMan]

I've rarely seen a team luckier than the Bills in this game.

 

[rodderick]

Not really. That was a game-ending fumble that went uncalled. If it’s called now, it’s only because McDermott burned his last timeout.

How often do you see a guy slide to the ground to make a catch, get back up, and get hit immediately after causing a fumble?

 

[BigJimEd]

There’s no way he got that TO in

You could see him calling it before the snap.

Pathetic job by officials all around. Stopped the clock. Then don't even review.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

He was not down

Shin was as the dude touched him. Tough call, though.

 

[DJnVa]

So they weren't going to review it without the timeout? What a stupid league.

There’s no time of Colts ate quicker. You’re can’t stop clock. It’s just a timing thing.

 

[luckiestman]

So close to left hand touching back with knee down

 

[BigSoxFan]

If only he had stayed on the ground like all 2000-2010 Colts WRs

 

[Mystic Merlin]

You could see him calling it before the snap.

Pathetic job by officials all around. Stopped the clock. Then don't even review.

They didn’t blow it dead before the snap is my point

 

[shawnrbu]

Gene carrying water.

 

[Obscure Name]

He's not down.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

That was a fumble. Colts need to go faster there.

Why you don’t run up and spike it there is beyond me. Idiots.

 

[Conigliaro's Potential]

Fumble.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

It shouldn't be a question of whether the Bills got the timeout in - the officials *have* to whistle right before the snap to review that themselves inside the final 2 minutes.

Agree. If you deny coaches the chance to challenge in the last two minutes you have to have the booth buzz there.

 

[joe dokes]

Are their feet touching?

Nope

 

[StupendousMan]

If only the Colts had eaten more quickly!

 

[Miniman]

Why wasn't that automatically reviewed?

 

[mauf]

That's a fumble, and it sure seemed like Indy got the snap off in time.

They always give the timeout if the coach is in the official’s ear before the snap. I don’t think that should be the way it’s called, but it’s called that way consistently. I mean, think of all the bs “icing the kicker” timeouts.
