Brad Allen now clams we could have chosen to replay the “backward pass” down

[mav1234]

Canales is an idiot at times but even he would have replayed the down if allowed. What a stupid poo thing to say

If the NFL cared they’d make all flags reversible by a replay team. I guarantee you that you’d see the best officiating you’ve ever seen and most of the time replay assist wouldn’t even be needed.

But that would require the NFL giving up the small amount of control they have left to influence games in certain situations.

The MLB has decided to take their umpires out of the game in hopes that it’ll bring fans back but it’s unlikely the NFL ever will.

There’s too many sheep that blindly follow the NFL no matter what.

Yep 100%

I’m sick and tired of Canales being a major pussy. The refs can walk all over him and the team with no expectation of Dave fighting back. Rivera was the same way and look how they ruined Cam. I’m out on Canales.  I was holding out hope that he’d piece it together but him not standing up for his guys when it matters most is getting exhausting

Refs trying to cover their bullshit asses with more fuging garbage imo.

Tepper use them brass ball and have that ref sacked. The 2nd richest owner should have the pull to make it happen.

NFL says well you can officiate the Jags/Bills Wildcard game to Brad Allen

Canales is a member of the millionaires/billionaires club. Why would he rock the boat and get kicked out of the club?

The NFL would gladly get rid of the refs if a lower cost and effective method were developed. Then they could bust a union and rid themselves of employees.

Or maybe they know and don't care about making it more fair.  Maybe controversial calls generate buzz and more eyes on the league in the short term.  Who knows what their motivation is other than max profit.

I don’t know why the NFL feels the need to rig against us when this franchise has never needed anyone’s help to suck.

What's worse is the NFL doesn't hold officials accountable for God awful calls during games!

Nah they give him a playoff game

I thought contact was legal in the first 5 yards of the pass play.  And they said the backwards pass went out of bounds, which sounded like, "Let's make some poo up."

The rule is anything past 1 yard is offensive pass interference, however the rule is also the push off has to be to the body.  TMac pushed off the helmet.  By rule, it was NOT pass interference.  More importantly, but the way they call the several thousands downs of football per season, it wasn't offensive pass interference.  It was, to be frank, a call intentionally made by the officials to negate a very big play to help the Bucs win.

Refs suck
