I didn't get a clear look at the play at wwork but it looked like an obvious fumble to me.

I noticed the refs took a long time reviewing it what was their excuse?

It was a fumble, but Boger is from Gerry Austin's crew so he sucks.

It was a fumble I think they just got it wrong.

Bull$hit call. Colston had control, made two steps and a football move. Should've been a fumble.

[GentlemanJack]

I still don't understand why it wasn't called a fumble.

[WildBill559]

Yep, it was a fumble.

One of the worst calls this season.

He had posession of the ball and took two steps. Was not even close.

The "football move" rule is gone, since 2007 I think. He just has to have control and maintain possession which it looked like he did.

Oh...my bad. It was a fumble however you look at it.

it was a fumble, and even if it wasn't there wasn't indisputable evidence to say it wasn't..

You sure? I googled this and didn't see that being changed for 2007 or 2008. I believe that rule is still in effect.

No he is right, you have to come down with clear control of the football. No fumble, it was an incomplete pass.

[mantal]

The ruling is that you come down with the ball and make two football moves after that. The receiver was tackled and stripped before he could make two football moves. I understand the ruling...

[edward teach]

I agree...definitely not indisputable evidence.

interesting that there was a similar fumble in the cowboys philly game. early in the game westbrook caught a ball and quickly fumbled, and it was called a fumble. the official inconsistencies this year have been abysmal.
