Just saying.
No I haven't found any articles on the Quinn "penalty."

Yeah, I saw that and was going to post it.
But then I thought to myself....
Fuck him.
If he can't mention that horrible phantom 'roughing' call, then I don't want to hear about his subjective argument that the ball traveled beyond the 17 yard line. There was absolutely no conclusive proof of that either. So, yeah. Fuck him.

Not to mention that the announcers even talked about the time keepers in the last Rams/Whiners game. Did he have a take on the bad calls that cost the Rams THAT win?
Besides, if the penalty is non-reviewable, does he know that the refs didn't think it hit the ground before the 17? Refs miss calls all day long but those plays are rarely replayed ad nauseum. That ball went into a crowd. So the ref is supposed to know immediately that it didn't touch anyone or anything before hitting the ground in that crowd AND exactly where it hit? Instead, the refs go with what they DID see and also the spirit of the rule. Kaputnik threw the ball away to avoid the sack. He was in the end zone. He had no receivers in the vacinity. Rather than fuck up the call even worse, they went with what they knew. HE INTENTIONALLY GROUNDED THE BALL - plain and simple.

The line of scrimmage goes "around the world?" So, if he threw the ball out of bounds at the 5, but it went all the way into the stands at the 20, that's okay????
Fix the rule. :roll:

Cry more. It was intentionally grounding. The rule may "technically" be that it extends, but he was obviously trying to get rid of it to avoid a sack in the endzone. Intentional grounding was the correct call. Next time don't run 14 yards back into the endzone, this isn't Madden. Pistol offenses are fucking stupid in the NFL.

Yeah. Kaeperniche had it right. It was his fault. He put himself in the endzone. He left it up to the refs decision, and we all know that's rarely a good thing.bluecoconuts said:
