Menudo Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I just watched the play again and it's really hard to tell for either call since Fox only had one camera angle on it. However, left knee comes down - ball is still in... right knee comes down - ball is still in... left shoulder comes down - ball comes out. Maybe the refs saw something different but from that angle there's no way you can call it was a fumble. Unless of course you are a Bears fan. I thought the ball had clearly already started moving out before his knee hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacked Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Please stop. The Saints turned the ball over, and couldn't stop Thomas Jones on one drive, that is why they are down. The ball was coming out before his knee hit. The offensive PI was questionable, but, those calls happen to every team every game. It's shocking that Menudo has become the NFL ref sack leech of the Huddle! Shocking I tell you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menudo Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 It's shocking that Menudo has become the NFL ref sack leech of the Huddle! Shocking I tell you! More shocking is that you like to get behind the "blame it on the refs rather than my own team's deficiencies" bandwagon. Shocking I tell you.

Menudo Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 (edited) And the Steelers aren't even playing. Nothing annoys me more than fans who blame their team's losing on the officials. It is the popular thing to do around here. In fact, it is rare for someone to stay away from it. Edited January 21, 2007 by Menudo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skrappy1 Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Not a fan of Bush's showboatin Me neither, that was unnecessary. Besides the fact, I'm sure the Saints would just love it if he happen to come down wrong and somehow hurt himself doing that little flip. Have Gus Frerotte and the Gramattica brothers taught us nothing about celebrations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 (edited) Come on Saints!!! Great play but Bush had a great angle to work with once he made the move on the safety, Harris. He had the whole width of the filed to run away from Urlacher, otherwise he might've been tracked down. The showboating was a d i c k move.

joethin Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Definitely not a Bears fan. However, I saw on a second camera angle on Fox that the ball started to come out before his left, and first knee might I add, was down. The ball was most definitely out by the time the second knee hit. I don't know what you saw. Are we even talking about the same play? The Lewis fumble on the return, right? Yes 2nd camera angle? Must have been on a beer grabbing second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Beatings Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Bush juked those dudes someting awful. But the dude is going to end up hurting himself Gramatica style with those idiotic leaps at teh end of his big plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gros Membres! Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Grossman can't hit the side of a barn. The guy has no touch and his thorws downfield have all been too high. I hate to say it but the momentum has shifted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMD Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I agree, just run it in. I'm no fan of big demonstrations when they catch a first down but a rookie running 88 yards for a touchdown in a NFC Championship game? Doesn't bother me. It was a huge play in a very big game.
