Knock me over with a feather! Oh those poor poor Squeeler fans now have to face the fact that life just isn't fair and the league wasn't going to just hand them yet another Lombardi trophy .
Raise your hand if you feel their pain.. lol
Now they get to join the ranks of conspiracy theory-land.. As if they were never there to begin with.
It's a stupid rule that I think will get overturned from what I'm hearing from the owners and the commissioner.
But ...... the way it is written, I think the refs got both of those calls correct, just disagree with the BS rule.
Once a receiver makes a catch with obvious control of football, the ground should never be able to cause an incomplete pass, just like the ground cannot negate a runners yardage or cause a fumble.
Also, if a receiver catches the ball with obvious control, he should be able to stick the ball across the plane just like the runners do without having to take two steps to 'establish' himself as a runner! BS, STUPID, DUMB, AND IGNORANT RULE!!
