The Chase “non-TD”

[Nicomo Cosca]

He sure looks in from this angle…

[TheCincinnatiKid]

It's clear as day from any angle that he was in. Don't even need to see the ball, you only had to look at the position of his right arm to see it was over the line. Astounding the refs don't see it, and astounding we don't challenge it.

But, pretty good mental fortitude to have that drive collapse at the goal line, and come back to tie it on the last play anyway.

[Rubekahn29]

Yeah. Probably one of the coaching gaffes. No reason to rush to the line after than play and snap so quick. If it’s close, give your upstairs guys time to look at it and challenge.

[NUGDUKWE]

Yeah. That sucks. A lot of things happen differently and we probably win. If we challenge and it's a TD. The steelers are in 4 down territory the next drive and who knows how that ends.

[NUGDUKWE]

Also not saying it's rigged by any means. But as much as that's a gaffe for Zac and company of a play is that close. The refs should be calling it a TD and let the automatic review work it out.

Yup. I'll never understand why they didn't challenge that ?

[masonbengals fan]

How is that not a TD ?

Exactly. Who knows how it ends. Maybe the Bengals still miss the extra point. Maybe the Steelers run back the kickoff. Maybe the Steelers, in 4-down situation, drive down and score a FG as time expires. 

What we do know is the Steelers played cautious, gave the ball back, and the Bengals came back and scored with virtually no time on the clock for the Steelers to mount a comeback. Just needed what used to be automatic: the extra point. It was all set up -- save for not having our long snapper.
