***Official Browns Vs Ravens Game Day Thread***
-
The ref who was closest to the play and looking right at the players appeared to have no intention of throwing a flag but the out of position ref who came running down the sidelines and was not in as good position as the other ref seemed to be a little flag happy in how quickly he threw the flag.

Not in position? 2 yds away? Come on man. You're reaching now.

Hoorta I guess you saw a lot of different reaction than I did after the game. What I saw in my section (138) , in the hall on the way out and all the way back to Puritas on the RTA was outrage on the total fuck job we got. No calls on hitting McCown after he was down, bullshit personal foul on Coleman, bullshit PI on Haden and the most outrageous being the taunting call at the end. This was OUR game to win and we were straight fucked. Fuck dont take it from my slanted view 17 rows up from the fucking play, here it is in the words of a Ravens reporter
Jeff Zrebiec, Ravens reporter: The Ravens won't be able to overcome the issues that plagued them today against too many other teams. Give them credit for making some plays late and give the assist to a phantom taunting call on Terrelle Pryor. However, until team figures out to run the ball better and more consistently, they are going to play a lot more games like this.

The Ravens suck. Browns should have beat them. They only won because we had a QB that was an understudy for the Villain in The Fugitive (one armed man), and because refs decided that the Browns we too young to be allowed to win a close game.

Look at the video at 8 seconds and it is a straight on shot showing the ref closest to the players and the ref who threw the flag not even in view. If anyone would have thought that should be taunting it would be the ref closest to the players involved.

Also germane... taunting type stuff is one of the NFL's "points of emphasis" for 2016.

However, Pryor should have known -- one of Tressel's points of emphasis for his entire coaching tenure at OSU was that the ball is handed to the ref after every play.
-
Did anybody else think Joe Haden should've run that first pick back for a TD? All he had to do was keep going down the sideline, but he cut it back to the middle of the field. WTF? We ended up scoring (thank God), but that usually means "FG Attempt' for our team. Maybe he's just rusty with the ball in his hands.

Two can play that game. Stop it at 4 sec just as the ball is leaving his hands. That ref is in perfect position to see it all.

And I think that's truly the key to the whole call. Being that it's a point of emphasis...if its remotely close, they're calling it. In hindsight, the more surprising call is the call on Coleman. The officials should've seen that both guys were guilty in that situation and its either no call and break them up and move on, or its the offsetting variety of calls just to get everyone's attention.

The ref who was in perfect position did not throw the flag and the one who threw the flag what did he witness? He saw a ball very gingerly being dropped and bouncing off the shoulder pads of the ravens player. It looked like the ref was wanting the ball and the Ravens player was between the ref and Pryor so it is not like Pryor went out of his way to drop the ball on the Ravens player. This was in the closing seconds of a close game and why would you throw a flag on that ticky tack call?

Because it's a 2016 "point of emphasis" rule. The officials are on notice to watch for it and call it whenever it's close.

How many times have you seen that before in the history of the NFL?
Off the top of my head, I remember a popular little fella getting called for taunting after he flipped off the entire opposing team....... Too bad they called it, what a great sport it would be if everyone could act like immature punks each and every play.
-
They can, and they do. And it is a great sport. You can always go watch Bob Ross paint happy trees if you want.

I prefer to watch men like Barry Sanders play the game, while you like to watch punks like your boy Johnny Finger..... To each their own.

I'm glad you're happy once every couple decades.

Well there were a couple, like the PI call in the endzone that the refs put the ball on the 2 and not the 1, the so called fumble, You fags are so fucking blind it makes me sick, always get bullshit calls, like the game against Miami a few years back andthere are so many to even count. Fuck the Steelers and their fans and why the fuck are you on a BROWNS fan site anyhow?

Man, that little fella sure is tearing the league up right now, isn't he?
Let me rephrase - how many times have you seen an actual legitimate NFL player grab his balls and flick off a player or ref?
I bet you give your kids participation medals, too.
