Bringing it up, pointing it out, etc etc does nothing.
If you want to be mad, be mad about the Bengals game plan. It's very difficult to run against Pitt, especially at home. New England says F that and they sling the ball 60 times a game. The secondary is the weakest part of Pitt's D. Throw, throw, throw.
There you go. That was not a fumble, but the "call stands". But what can you or anyone do about it? Nothing.
***** about the team that doesn't do enough to beat the team you hate.
Hey now I'm frustrated too but keep this post in context. We heard all week about how the officials were going to be critical so I think most of us assumed there were going to be flags galore. They were absent, and Pitt took advantage of holding constantly. Maybe Cincy missed that "opportunity"
but the game didn't match the agenda BSPN and the media in general were serving. If being controversial was the point though, they went to extremes to keep it by staring down a down by contact to call it a fumble. The Bengals should have been better, but maybe you misunderstood when this was posted, it was the 1st quarter not the end. Totally blaming the officiating is a cop out, which is irrelevant from this post.
