I thought this is why you don’t try to make Giovani Bernard take a pay cut hoping to save $2M when you’re already over $20M under the salary cap.
Actually, that was the second thing I thought. The first thing I thought was, “MFerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

Am I the only one that thought it was more a bad pass than Perine "letting it go through his hands"? Seemed like he only got one hand on it and pass was a little too far out?

I think that was one of those plays that wouldn't have been overturned either way. If it had been called incomplete on the field, I think it would have remained incomplete.

I thought the CBS cameraman might have lost us the game because he couldn't keep the ball in frame. I have no doubt that it would have shown that the ball touched the ground before it was caught. The nose of the ball left a foot long divot where the player scooped it up.

Perine needs to catch that. It’s that simple.

Looking at it again, Perine had to fully extend his arm and it hit just his fingers, not his palm. So it was a really tough catch. Still can't say whether that was a bad throw because he may have taken the wrong angle for the route.
