Yep that was crap and never seen any officials call a penalty after seeing instant replay. Most likely the officials are not allowed to do it but they did Sunday!

I'm sure that the league won't do a damn thing to them.

Only a fine to Tomlin!

It benefits the home team because they control the jumbotron.

Bingo.

They did not replay the play where AB drew a PI (when the corner had grabbed his hand). In turn, the crowd booed (and booed).

Was replay used for this, Cool Shades???? :lol: :cool: :hippo: :bond:

[steelreserve]

Oh. From the thread title I didn't realize they meant Gay's last name rather than the adjective, but I suppose either one would have been accurate.

Bingo.

They did not replay the play where AB drew a PI (when the corner had grabbed his hand). In turn, the crowd booed (and booed). Was crap either way and refs are not allowed to throw a flag 40 seconds after the play.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Also replay benefits the home team if they want to challenge a call and not for refs to throw a flag way after the play.

[FrancoLambert]

I was irate too. It seemed obvious that the penalty was called after the stadium replay and the fans reacted.

Now we have fans calling the game.

NFL officiating: :asskick:

Not to mention, wasn't it more like a shoulder to the neck than a helmet to the head? If anything, being able to see it in slow motion made it seem clear that it was NOT a penalty. Or maybe it was some other horseshit call that I'm thinking of.

[Born2Steel]

Any fines yet?

Or maybe it was some other horseshit call that I'm thinking of.Any contact to the head/neck area whether with the head, shoulder, or forearm constitutes a 15 yarder.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Any contact to the head/neck area whether with the head, shoulder, or forearm constitutes a 15 yarder. But not a minute later after the play.

Collarbone. High chest. Whatever you want to call it. Not the head or whatever illegal area; it looked bad because his head snapped back from the blow in general, but it was not headhunting or helmet-to-helmet or anything against the rules; that's what I meant. For years now, they've been making calls based on "looks bad," not whether it actually was illegal, which is a great indication that the rule is stupid and needs to vaporize. Not that it ever will.

[JimHarbaugh'ssoakedtissue]

Allowing refs to make calls after a replay is bs plain and simple. They already have enough power to change the outcome of a game. That call is a joke and abuse of the refs power! All NFL fans besides the Browns should be pissed that that call happened!

Agree.
