Yep.

That's what you call a horse ****ing. What a call.

Yeah, it seems that you are the only one in this thread posting about it who actually understands the rule.

There was no fumble since his arm was still underneath the ball

This.

I will never understand this dumbass rule. If a RB runs gets tackled as he enters the endzone and the ground causes him to fumble it is just a fumble, recovery, TD. This is no different. Two feet down then the ground caused him to lose it but he regained control.

The rule was applied correctly.

However, that doesn't mean the rule isn't ****ing reeruned.

Worst announcers evar

That's why you don't draft QBs.

I swear if this game total stays under the vegas total by 4 points or less you have got to wonder how much of this crap is fixed.I hate the raiders but c'mon that was a td.

Richard Seymour! haha. And he was getting held.

The officials made the correct call.

the non TD was a blown call, the ball touched the ground but the receiver still had control

Because a catch requires control of the ball. A RB already has control once he gets the hand off. The rule changed last year.

I don't disagree with this.

Obviously it just one half of play, but the raiders front D looks pretty damn good...and their secondary is no turd either

seymor is a beast

Bolts played like s*** and they are tied. They should win this.

So, we're in agreement that the refs ****ed up the call?

Neither of these teams is impressing anybody.

This

LMAO

He already has 2 sacks lol

Called it like the rule reads, he didnt control the ball once he hit the ground.

Yeah, I get what they are going for. It is a dumb rule. If you have control after two feet down you have control. He did.

Holy ****! Richard Seymour is on pace to have 64 sacks this season!! LMAO

Is McFadden hurt? He didn't play at all after his fumble I don't think. I can't remember what came last-that fumble or Russell hanging him out to dry on the pass.

that's worth a first round draft pick

If you catch a ball and 2 feet hit the ground the rest of the play shouldn't matter when your 2nd foot hits it should be a catch.

Exactly.

Read earlier in this thread .... We have no chance next week and are going to get "skull ****ed" [/Game Thread]

1st downs: SD 6, Oak 14

Total Yards: SD 74, Oak 217

Passing yards: SD 53, Oak 112

Rush yards: SD 21, Oak 105

Not good enough.....

Jesus these fruity-a** Prius commercials are getting really old...they really know how to target their prospective buyers

Apparently not

SD - 10

Raiders -10

According to the NFL rules

He did all of that because his arm was still underneath the ball when he hit the ground. Am I missing something?

If you did what that WR did in the open field they'd call it a catch and down by contact so how is it not a TD?

That was just horrendous. I hate to see the refs blow a call like that one where it changes the game, and in this case, by 4 points. Even though it was a call against the Raiders, that just shows it can happen anywhere, like oh, next Sunday at Arrowhead? I don't want the refs making it up to Oakland next week!

Well, except for the clause that states unless it's a team owned by al "death" davis, in which case the refs can call whatever they please to keep his teams from ever winning anything ever again

Al is going to crap his depends if the Raiders keep this up.

Since last year, it is incomplete.

These rules are stupid.

I agree. Oakland will have to have better than 2X the stats to win.

Turnovers.... nuff said

Why doesn't Oakland try a PA bomb for DHB?

Even if you don't hit it make them respect his speed.

Mike Mitchell proves his worth LMAO

Ok so the ball can't move at all or it is incomplete is that right?

That's another rule I don't like...if you have the ball and your knee hits the ground, you should be down with or without being touched by the defense.

This week was supposed to be the great Adrian Peterson vs. LaDainian Tomlinson battle.




Um yeah, not much of a competition there.

The Raiders are going straight up man since Asomugha can own his guy and Chris Johnson steps up with a nice play.

**** THAT! This isnt college!

Maybe, but it equals out the rules for sliding or diving catches.

You know what I'd like to know...who are the Chiefs going to throw to this week cause Asomugha is gonna ass rape Bowe all over the field...

god I wish are corners could play man

Um this is not college football.

Duh, Bobby Wade

Mark Bradley, Bobby Engram, Sean Ryan, Jamaal Charles?

Those dudes make me shake in my boots I tell you.

So what do we score 6 points throwing to those guys?

So how long do you have to have it on the ground for it to count as a possession?

Ok that definitely wasn't a catch. The ball was rolling on the ground. I was wrong

Wow. Helluva catch.

Wow nice catch there

that guy has some good hands. Where did he come from?

boise state

LT looked slow getting outside....

No. It should have been a catch. It was a bad overturn. The receiver went to the ground and had the ball. It was when he was getting up that the ball came free, but that's what they called the incomplete on.

Both officiating crews have sucked tonight. Teams may be struggling, but the officials are already in mid-season suckage form.

facemask and holding

I wonder if Asomghua gets bored playing. It's can't be that much fun not getting any balls thrown your way.

That dude that came up to get him Tyvon Branch is a safety that posted a 4,3 40 at the combine...

Rivers warming up

lawls

Now Rivers almost Cutlered it

**** that line backer ****ed up that pick.

Stupid throw.

I'm kind of disappointed. I've really enjoyed the Raiders being a complete comedy of errors for a long time.

End of an era.

The CB had the pick before teh LB ran into him.

What the hell was he thinking with that throw?

Threw it into triple coverage across his body.

SD dodged a bullet there

He did get picked that time.

we are no longer the worst D in the NFL

INT!
