    What dude? are you even watching? he made 0 steps extended for the ball and laid out for it. NO CATCH

    Great call by the refs and even better challenge by Harbaugh.

    Ghoolie is exactly correct Holmes caught the ball possessed it completely and then made two steps while having possession and then put a hand down while maintaining possession. By rule that is a catch. They blew it but that is common for NFL officiatiing, it SUCKS. You are so blinded by your self described "hate" you cannot even see what is obvious being total irrational and hate blinded. Sad I expected more from you.

    The also blew a call huge in the first game and blew the call on the first pass interference against Pittsburgh. And others. They had a bad day. As Usual.

    SezEJ I am glad at least you are objective this was clearly a catch rule. Masters is wrong and doesn't know the rules. Two steps after getting possession is a catch. Accoding to his interpretation if the ball is caught and the guy drags the defender ten yards and loses the ball then it is not a catch. Blown call and bad understanding of the rules by Masters

    Read much? That's retorical

    I specifically said in my first while falling see ("and falling (which he was during the two steps), you have to hang on to the ball through contact w/ the ground.") If a guy is falling while hit, he must maintain control to the ground. Like I said to Ghools, by your backwards twisted logic back, how was Washington's play on the first drive not a fumble? Two feet, control, hit, then ball comes loose.

    I don't make the rules, nor do I agree with it. But since you and Ghoolie haven't paid attention to a game since 1965, I get why you aren't up on what is called.

    Rich and Ghoolie, even a legit PIT can see it

    The Holmes incompletion was a good call but the refs refuse to call holding on the B-more o-line and the made up PI call.

    Doesn't the whole 'football-related' move come into play here? In other words, it's more than just getting two feet down - you have to make a football-related move (I recall this cam up during and Indy game a few years ago).

    It did look like a catch to me, though.

    I thought it was a catch. Holmes stretching his arm out towards the endzone while he cradled the ball was the football move that's needed, IMO.

    Eh. Ghoolie is just working a new angle, he can't really piss and moan about the management so he's gotta do something to rile up the monkeys

    The Steelers.... 3 of them confirmed to live past the age of 60.

  • Nice bullshit call on running into the kicker. Looks like the refs received confirmation of Rooney's payment.

    Looks like Hines is teaching his buddies how to 'block'.

    I wonder why it is helmet-to-helmet on a QB or WR is not ok, but any other player is fine.

    The rule is on a Tackle of a Ball carrier , tacklers and players standing around...on a tackle helmet contact is acceptable, at least across the LOS. I think the rule was to protect Extended players, and players getting blindside blocks and such, QB is Throwing motion and follow up also.... Stop Bitching loser. Pathetic whiney azz crybabies. Pissed again because the Burgh~ has yet another Shot at the Lombardi ! Become a real team Again , then maybe you will stop sounding so freakin Pathetic !!! Its is sad sad how pussified some of you guys are !!!

    Add to that the 1st Pass Interference Call....BS little Sissy call. Pass Interference is only to be called IF the DB received an advantage over the receiver on the play. Clearly the 1st time was BS. The 2nd one (on Taylor) Was a good call. So, Tell me why in the heck That 1st one was interferance and the Last Play the Eagles had the Ball wasn't ???? (in the PHILLY Game)

    And anyone crying the "refs" Helped Pittsburgh...what ever You just Identified yourselves as Azzwipes , if that's the Case.

    Because IF the Officials were help Pittsburgh NONE of those interference calls get made and Baltimore never even SNIFFS the End Zone !!!!

    Not sure why you chose my post to reply with this 🙄

    I'd agree the 1st PI call was questionable, and that the last in the Eagles game should have been called.

    I didn't say the refs helped PIT.

  • @ghoolie said:

    NO THE RULES DO NOT SAY THAT.....................

    THE RULE SAYS THAT IN LIEU OF THE RECIVER MAKING CONTACT WITH HIS FEET< IF HIS ONLY CONTACT IS THE GROUND.................... THEN HE HAS TO HAVE POSESSION.

    IF HE WOULD HAVE RUN 3 STEPS INSTEAD OF 2, OR 10 STEPS................. WHAT WOULD THE CALL BE?

    TWO STEPS IN TEH NFL CONSTITUTES A RECEPTION.

    THEY BLEW THE CALL.

    "A forward pass is complete when a receiver clearly possesses the pass and touches the ground with both feet inbounds while in possession of the ball." If the ball comes loose on contact with the ground it is INC. If you watched a game more than once a year, you'd know this. Guys get get two feet in hit the ground and lose the ball on ground contact each week and it is INC.

    BOTH FEET Down ...Ball in control.... Santonio caught that one....Period. The Zebras didn't see it that way... But still ...

    Another instance , that provess the Officials were not "HELPING " Pittsburgh. If they were THAT WAS Never gonna get overturned.

    But that ain't the rule (I don't agree with the rule, but that is neither here nor there). By what you said, Washington should have had a fumble on PITs first drive. By the rule, the Holmes play is no different than when a guy makes a sideline grab or one in the endzone, has control of the ball while getting two feet down, goes to the ground and loses the ball, and it's called incomplete. They changed the rule about 5 or 6 years ago that made it that after two feet down, if you go to the ground, you must maintain control of the ball when and after hitting the ground.

    If he had stepped out of bounds it was a catch. He made two steps after controlling the ball and lunged for the goal line. It was a stupid call. Did the ground knock the ball out of his hand? Yes But, it was a legal reception before that.

    His two steps were in stride then to the ground. If he went out of bounds the same way and the ball came loose, the call would still be incomplete. The rule is you must maintain control of the ball when you hit the ground after initially making the catch and only getting two feet down before hitting the ground. If your two steps are while running or both just coming down planting after jumping for the ball, it's still your first two feet down.
