Peter King: Flowers call, worst interference call of the year
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/201...17/mmqb/5.html
The interference call on Brandon Flowers to help seal Kansas City's defeat. Should have been offensive pass interference on Andre Johnson, obviously, but went against the Chiefs and capped their 21-point fourth-quarter meltdown. Worst interference call of the year. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/201...17/mmqb/3.html 13. Kansas City (3-2). Sorry. An official decided that game at Houston. If the Chiefs and Texans play tomorrow in Wichita, I'm taking Kansas City. |

"years of watching" You do realize many other posters have watched just as many games as you have? It was obviously OPI and any defense against it not being called is stupid. Plain and simple. BTW - I've watched the NFL for about 24-25 years now. how many years have you been watching? |

So they don't consider Tony a super stud for most of his career. Damn, playing for KC really drags you down.

Yeah, I really hate that "stars don't get that called on them" defense. This isn't the NBA...

This pure speculation, but thinking back on it, I don't think that it was a oopsy, heat-of-the-moment, OPI either. Just a series or so back in the game thread I wrote 'Flowers is in their brainz' when they ran on 3rd and long. I recall there being a marked fear of airing it out despite being so far behind.
Couple this with Johnson's acknowledgement of the contact after the game, and I picture Johnson pleading on the sidelines for that out pass promising he WILL get separation.

Think about it. How many times did the Chiefs attempt to convert on fourth down because they weren't able to convert on third down?

Except that if Flowers isn't pushed, then it's highly possible, even probable, that he knocks the ball down.

Um...a blown out knee is a bit much. He did what he had to do to gain separation...he HAD to cheat basically. As they say, if you ain't cheatin' you ain't tryin'. I'd blame the refs long before I'd blame Johnson.

There were two OPIs in the Jets-Donkey game that were less obvious pushoffs than Andre Johnson's.

One did, but two of them had me laughing because they were less than Johnson's.

I personally think that Johnson pushes because that was the only way he could in fact get separation from Flowers, who was stuck to his ass like glue on that play. So I don't buy for a second that it's a moot point because Johnson caught the ball. Flowers was in perfect position looking back at the ball. Without that push Johnson isn't making that catch more than likely. |
