But when they were showing the sideline view where the sticks and that orange marker was, it sure looked like that yellow line we see on TV was a foot past it. The refs don't see that line. So its possible he did make the first down. I can see them not overturning the call on the field because you couldn't be 100 percent sure on that one. Seattle fans will disagree though.


Did anyone notice they went to replay twice? They said "further evidence." Aikman said that's the first time he ever heard that one. They must have done it to appease Carroll. So they got screwed twice :lol2:

Lol, Saints fans are up in arms that Vinovich will be the Superbowl referee. Still crying a year later. Life as fans of the New Orleans Chokers. :lol2:

This is the line to get good tailgate spots at Arrowhead. It’s single degree temperatures and below zero wind chill.

mahomes td run is an example of why the qb protection rule (when a qb becomes a runner) is broken, defenders just don't know how to tackle running qbs today, and error on the side of caution which can be a huge advantage for athletic running qbs like mahomes.... imo all bets should be off when a qb becomes a runner, and there should be no such thing as giving yourself up, when a qb becomes a runner he should automatically become a common ball carrier.

Totally agree. Leave the pocket you're still protected but pass the LOS, you're a ball carrier and subject to the punishment. I don't mind the "give yourself up" rule but the ball should be placed 3 yards behind where you started your slide.
