That McCoy roughing the passser call legit made me want to shoot somebody. That was one of the biggest momentum shifting calls in a long time (well other than when the Lions got hosed in Lambaeu earlier this year). If anything, that should have been an intentional grounding call and a safety for us. We should have gotten SOMETHING from that play. Good field position from a 3 and out or a safety from intentional grounding. But somehow we get the bogus end of it and get neither, we get a bullsh*t roughing the passer call on the most textbook takedown you will ever see. We absolutely got shafted on that call. Never have I gotten angrier from a call.

 

Yeah I almost lost my mind. My pets were hiding somewhere and wondering wtf was going on. I think if I had slightly less self control I might have destroyed my own tv. My buddy was also losing his mind. We were not happy campers. I didn't even remotely start to calm down about it for at least ten minutes. I'm a pretty level headed dude otherwise but sometimes watching sports turns me into a crazy man.

This, it changed the entire game. Sad part is I expected something like this when Jerome Boger was set to call this game. He is the most biased ref in the league, he is from the ATL and always screws us. I believe he dislikes us more than Clete.

Boger is utter garbage. He and Ed Hochaloogie make me wanna kick puppies (@#$% both of y'alls sorry asses).

Nope ... but at least van rotten tried to pull him across after missing the block that stuffed it.

Amazing as cmc is, this is twice this season we needed the goaline td for the game, and came up short. Healthy Cam would jordan dunk that poo in. Poo me now, dont care.

It's almost as if we need a hammer on the short yardage plays. Would be nice to actually use  a real hammer of a FB to lead for CMC plus a jumbo package.  Cam pushes that 80% of the time, every year prior to 2017. Currently, I think it's around a 50/50 with the 2019 personnel, even with Superman Cam. The line really did get worse after 2016 (hello speed bump.....) And where did the jumbo package with a FB go down there?

Also not sure that was the right play there at the 2 again. Our line is meh to ugh most games. It's as if Ron and Norv think we have the prime time cowboys line leading the way for CMC. Our line in 2015 likely would have been able to get a push (best interior line we have ever fielded, 2019 not so much) to get CMC a better chance to get in against both the Packers and Bucs. I totally understand wanting CMC, your best player, to get the ball for the last play, but both times I'm not sure the personnel around him was right for the situation. 

It's a little disingenuous to hang this on CMC or Cam if they cannot get 2 yards behind this line nor get in without an old school FB. The personnel and sets we ran for short yardage was very different under Shula than Norv.

And i think he will be Healthy next year trading him would be really retarded...go through 3 years of rehab to get him 100% then let him go, i would be furious! Plus with the threat of Cam or even the blocking of Cam he makes it easy, i think he was in anyway but whatever. I think after Cam is 100% you wont see the injury bug imo...i think he stays healthy unless something freak happens like this lisfranc.

Don't forget we went for two in the middle of the game with very little momentum. It just wasn't meant to be fam.

He was in, the ball wasnt.

 

If GVR didn't whiff his block, it wouldve been a TD.

That's because Cam is a Superhero and CMC is like his sidekick and stuff.

[MountaineerChemist10]

He was short, but only by a pubic hair.

[DeAngelo Beason]

What I don't understand it why CMC didn't extend the ball over the goal line.  The game was over either way.  Why not risk a fumble to get the TD.

#73 really stopped CMC momentum .. had he not been right in front of him, he could have stretched across. 

I thought this same thing.  While he did his best to pull CMC across the goal line, Van Roten may have also initially prevented him from lunging to the goal line or extending the ball across.

Probably doesn't matter.  Knowing how our luck runs, the final would have been 24-22.

The roughing the passer call late in the first half and going for 2 after we cut the lead to 24-16 just left my head hurting from banging it into the living room table.

We should use Armah, even though we rarely ever do.
