His fumble that was returned for a TD was a forward pass. Did it get overturned? I didn't get to watch the game.
 
WTF...Is this bizaro world?
 
no, i didn't see the game, just highlights, and they keep showing that pass that was returned for a TD as if it stood. Dunno why they would show that in the highlights if wasn't a play that counted.

I'm just going off of highlights. On those 2 long randy moss passes, why wasn't there any safety help?
 
That was a horrible call...the only thing I don't like about instant replay is that refs use it as a crutch and subsequently make more terrible calls because they know they can play it safe and be saved by replay. If there was no instant replay, I guarantee that would have been called incomplete without any ref hesitation.

That's ok buddy...Hell.I almost turned the game off when it happened.
I didn't believe we get a replay call against the Pats.

It is very upsetting that refs can not get these clear calls right from the get-go. They are forcing teams to use challenge flags on calls which should have been called correctly from the beginning.
 
Would this play fall under the tuck rule??

If you look Henne gives a little pump, brings the ball in, and then makes the throw that was originally called a fumble.
 
Honestly I think that this type of play should always be ruled a fumble on the field if not completely obvious. If it was us and Brady was sacked and it look like he fumbled and they ruled it dead then it cannot be reviewed and if it is they would not give the TD, just a recovery. Must let it be a live ball first. Good call by Carey.
