    The video is annoying because he keeps rewinding and forwarding with this Tivo, but check out the times of 3:42 for a different angle and 5:55 for the ref's final call. It's hysterical.

      Ben doesn't look too happy with that td. The toss never was behind the line of scrimmage.

            yep, and the NFL will not change it either. Point differential is a tie breaker too in playoff issues

              Why would they not change it if it matters to decide tie breakers?

              I didn't even have money on the game and I'm annoyed.

                The ref admitted after the game that they got it wrong....The ball is only dead in that case for the offense...People are getting caught up in the forward/backward thing, but the real issue is that the defense can recover and advance and choose to decline the penalty. This is something that I have seen happen a few times....

                It's really a horrible way to lose a bet....

                  I bet inside the ref felt so bad, put this guys bank accounts all on red alert for the next year or so!

                    Tomlin still accepted the penalty regardless though, even if he did not know the rule, so you guys can blame the black coach again

                        I don't think so...The ref initially announced that the penalty was declined and it was a TD...So that would tell us Tomlin declined it...

                        THEN, he said the ball was dead when it was passed forward the 2nd time and game was over...

                        He wouldn't give up pts when pt differential is a possible tiebreaker...

                            It's so bizarre though, why would the ref say its a touchdown, and then say no touchdown at the end just to end the game? Not sure if i'd say it was rigged or the ref just wanted to go home lol
