NGS said the ball came within 0.6 yds. of breaking the plane on the TH run. I think the refs placed it at about the 2-2.5 yd. mark. Also, the push in the back by #51 on Andrews ignored by Goodell's zebra on the run back.  I'm thrilled we won but I felt confident we would.  Let's face it, Bengals-Bills was a MUST matchup for the NFL, just as Chiefs-Bills will be the week after.

Why do I suddenly feel like Fredtoast ?   LOL

I believe the 0.6 yds was the actual fumble play. They just consider that a run. Also I'm not so sure on the block in the back. I think you can block in the back if you first initiate the block from the front. Also offenses are allowed to block a defender in the back in the backfield so was it still technically the backfield? I don't know. I would both teams got lucky bounces of the ball and that one bouncing right to Hubbard was a big one.
