Once and for all, IT WAS A FORWARD PASS!

[LDaniel7]

I'm not saying it's a conspiracy against Miami one way or another, but let's be realistic. The Dolphins got straight up ****ing screwed in 2010 against the Steelers, and if that Antonio Brown play had been ruled a touchdown, Miami would have been straight up screwed again. That clearly wasn't a legal play from the beginning, and it never should have happened due to the fumble on the previous play. Anyone claiming that we are being delusional or optimistic to acknowledge those facts is a putz.

And apologies to anyone I just labeled a putz, but that's exactly what you are. Load up your tommy gun for another pass if it offends you that much.

Plus one.

at the end of the day though the best teams rise...and are in the postseason for a reason...they are the best teams...despite getting some at times beneficial treatment...

Im just thinking how bad it must have been prior to replays...If we think its tough now...it must have been a real treat in the olden days

Agreed. That show is really stupid and that's coming from a nerd.

Yep. It was a forward pass.

Watched it on the coaches film. No question.

Thanks for taking the time to post it. This first image proves to me that Ben is clearly behind the 33 yardline. I drew a line on the 33 yardline to show how clear it is. Just count the hash marks at the top of the picture.

This second picture shows that Ben's foot is on the 30 yardline when he is being tackled. I know Ben is a big guy, but he would have to stretch out over 9 feet in order to release the ball at the 33 yardline.

The first picture shows us that he is not Mr Stretch, and indeed did not cover 9 feet to make it to the 33 yardline before releasing the ball.

I can not clearly tell from the coaches film where Brown is on the field when he catches the ball, but looking at the other angle, it shows that Brown is easily in front to the 33 yardline. My line in this picture is just behind the 33 yardline:

I think when you put everything together from the different angles, it clearly confirms what most of us knew that it was a forward pass. Would the officials have put it all together and made the right call? I doubt it. But the facts are the Steelers committed two penalties on that play and the play never should have even been allowed to start. Anyone who thinks we were lucky that Brown stepped out of bounds must not care about bad calls.

Let me be one of those who says THANK YOU!

I am out of mind with the pathetic NFL reffing. Its like college basketball already. And you have done a fantastic piece of work here making it irrefutable that the refs are a bunch of losers who close ranks and refuse to face the truth.

Typical grade B cover up and a set of bad decisions and bad calls.

And then we get the arrogant, ignorant assinine front office making some jackass statement that the refs made the right call.

Again thank you again for doing a great piece of research!

.

I usually give you slack when you're curmudgeonly, Awsi -- because you're old school hard corps and I can appreciate that -- but this time I'm gonna tell you: IF it bothers you this much, then either 1. Get out of this thread; or 2. Shut the heck up.

All sanctimonious and high and mighty, acting like refs haven't DIRECTLY impacted the Dolphins' game this year, specifically the Baltimore and NE games -- whatever.

I'm the one who put my time on the line to discover the truth behind that play (and others) because yes, it bothers me that refs continually affect outcomes of games and consistently in the same direction. The evidence is overwhelming for someone who doesn't stick their head in the sand and then hate on people who don't stick their head in the sand.

The thread title was CLEAR as could be on the content. If you don't like it, don't click on it. Otherwise, quit throwing a hissy fit about those of us who do care.

Respectfully,

LD

Excellent. It's pretty obvious watching it from different angles -- and noticing the necessary facts relative to the field, not the angle.

Kudos!
