Blandino breaks down the play and why it was not reviewable.  States the fact that penalties such can not be added to plays like this.  

That's all fine and dandy, but if thats the case Blandino, why were refs allowed to add a personal foul penalty after Marvin's challenge last week that was not called on the field until after they saw the replay?...

Hochuli should have been fired for blowing the Chargers game years ago. Then his antics with Cam this wouldn't have even happened.

They were better off with the replacements. They should have just let the refs stay on strike and let the replacements get better.

It would have rolled out for a touchback, HOWEVER, Wright messed up and the penalty should have been called. It doesn't matter if the flag had nothing to do with what would have happened. If you break the rules, it should be called. We are assuming the trajectory of the ball. We are most likely correct, but we do not know because Wright messed up.

I had the Seahawks D in my big money league and I kept flipping out thinking that I was going to lose by one point because I would have gotten two if he had recovered the fumble.b

A Redskin running back fumbled the ball just short of the goal out of bounds(this year) as it passed through the endzone. In that case, it's a turnover spotted on the 20, just as it would have been if either the Seahawk defender recovered the fumble which he could have easily done, or the ball rolled out of bounds on it's own. I think the whole rule is screwed up, if it's fumbled short of the goal (even if it rolls through the endzone) it should go back to the offensive team at the spot of the fumble; I can see not advancing it to a TD , but a touchback....really??? People are crying about this decision, and rightfully so; but they're really crying about the wrong thing, the rule itself needs changed. In other news, they asked some Patriots player about it, and he knew it was an illegal bat; said they practiced that very play. I'll bet good ole Marvin would have been pretty clueless had it happened to us.

A player messes up and fumbles the ball to the defense, and fumbling it into their territory should be treated the same as fumbling it to a defender.
