If a Ref makes a bad call at the end of the game, Indy, Houston, Oakland, you have really no time to play through it.

well our coordination has always been clumbsy when time is ticking, esp. while we have a narrow/slim lead. It's better now, but still, often, amateur in my opinion. Part of that is newness I guess. The time allotment needed for this staff to gel (and they may not be there yet) and youthful playboys on the field.

If I am disappointed in anything it is the play calling on 3rd down. I don't understand what Weis is calling and what he is telling and not telling Cassel to do?

That being saidm Bowe dropped ball and all, we had a chance to seal that game Sunday and I will say we got some severe screwing over by the Zebras. Drawing a holding penalty is crucial in a game under 2 mins and the other team has no TO's. We did that but they refused to run the 10 secs off the clock. A holding call on the defense is huge for the offense in the last minute when they only need a FG to tie. The Raiders got a nice phantom call. Missing an interception to seal the game usually costs you only when the other team still catches the ball. Ford didn't catch it yet the booth chose not to review the suspect catch as opposed to the unquestionable catch.

There isn't anything you can do about those things. Except maybe Flowers hangs onto the ball.
