How is that not reviewable?

[itchypickle]

Harbaugh is on his couch laughing at Schwartz right now

[onlooker]

Stupid fuking rule. Regardless how retarded the coach is. In the heat of battle, and with such a bad call, your emotions take over and react.

To be penalized 7 points for that reaction is stupid. Just give the Texans 15 yards and review the damn play.

[yisman]

You will NEVER see a good coach like Belichick blow it like that

actually, Belichick has already done the same thing (thrown the flag on an unreviewable play), but didn't get penalized for it. He tends to get away with stuff.

[Cuse0323]

Lions will never get their composure back cause I sure ain't. I'm gonna flip the fckin turkey over.

[PAULYPOKER]

NFL blatant with bad call

Knee clearly down,but they come up with a bogus "made up" ruling to get out of it.............

Simms trying to explain it makes it even more obvious.....................

[thetrinity]

Impossible to know every single rule. Lets get serious.

How is it a "made up" rule?

It's in black & white in the rule book. Google it for yourself.

Guy is paid MILLIONS of dollars to know the game/ the rules, make decisions for the team.... ect.....i mean come on....if im paid Millions you wouldnt see a mistake CLOSE to that outta me...and if I was fired...id accept it and move on...you got a fuckkn city on your back here....no excuses

They might as well add an automatic for the coach challenging to lose their job as well, would make sense.

[MoneyLineDawg]

Serious question.....Can the Texans just throw the flag there and then say oops my mistake.....so that there can't be a review?

How about they just blow the whistle when everyone in the world can see he's down except the blind mice standing on the field.

[podunk]

Terrible rule. Total sham.

Sbr "sharps" losing their shirt crying foul for backing up a loser squad

That's a really good question. You think the play might go against you so you throw the flag.

It's a waste of time when guys throw a flag on a play they can't challenge. That was part of the process of implementing this system. In this case okay sure it's a problem but in most cases coaches would slow the game down by throwing a challenge flag. How else do you stop that?

[Titanup28]

Complete BS reminds me of the blown call on the packers

[PaperTrail07]

NO MONEYLINE DOG.....b/c they cant benefit from the play....it was already called in their favor....

Theyre not even winning, theyre tied. They are only tied because of that bs TD. If the lions are a loser squad what does that make the Texans?

[Titanup28]

The NFL wants Houston to win this game

[PaperTrail07]

Lol hardly

15 yard penalty.

[Mikail]

Change that silly rule asap!

[Titanup28]

Lol hardly

What do you mean both were horrible fukkkin calls with obvious proof that play should be overturned!

[MoneyLineDawg]

NO MONEYLINE DOG.....b/c they cant benefit from the play....it was already called in their favor....

So what if the Texans score and the Texans coach immediately throws the challenge flag?

Do they take a penalty on the kickoff but the play can not be reviewed and TD stands?

[brainfreeze0]

imo the games are played for the fans and that whole sham was really a technicality. Robbing the fans of a fair game behind a technicality is just bad form on the part of the NFL. Even the announcers didnt know that rule and theyre also supposed to be completely up on the rules.

[InTheDrink]

15 yard penalty.

I'm confused. That's what happened there.

[PaperTrail07]

Only thing SILLY Mikail was a MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR coach making rookie mistakes....aplayer does some dumb shit...they see the bench

[PaperTrail07]

its to prevent the early whistle....without the coach throwing the flag "like a complete dumbfuck".....they system would have worked perfectly

[onlooker]

I'm confused. That's what happened there.

Review the play, and tack on the 15 yard penalty after.

[yisman]

a team of replacement refs would've ruled forsett down on the play

clear as day

[yisman]

Review the play, and tack on the 15 yard penalty after.

exactly and that's how I thought it worked. 15 yard penalty, coaches aren't going to throw it and intentionally incur a penalty (hear the result from the booth, then go on the field, announce the decision, and say "Since the Detroit coach tried to challenge a play that is automatically reviewed, a 15 yard penalty will be enforced against Detroit")

I didn't realize they then refuse to review it. It's a ludicrous system.

[InTheDrink]

Review the play, and tack on the 15 yard penalty after.

By definition we are talking about unreviewable plays looker

[brainfreeze0]

Even with charity Texans still struggling

[onlooker]

By definition we are talking about unreviewable plays looker

I'm talking about this play today.

All TD's are reviewed. They should of reviewed it like normal, and tack on the 15 yard penalty after.

To have points on the board that shouldn't be there, is fuking terrible.

[Mikail]

Doesn't matter. Lions gonna win the game.
