AWFUL Call

[SoCal Cardfan]

When refs review they can look at everything, not just the specific rule being challanged.

That's not entirely true, they won't look at a play like the one today, and throw a flag for pass interference if they noticed it was missed origionally.

Another thing was the personal foul against Milford Brown. Brown was in the wrong but they missed the Seattle player who punched first. Should have been offsetting PFs.

They always missed the first guy who hits, they get the guy who retaliates. Where they missed on that one was a defender after Brown smacked the Seattle player, tackled Milford.

 

[Shane]

Seriously. The problem would've been NOT challenging it.


If you want to bitch about something, bitch about the decisions Green made in the 4th qrtr. He came out smelling like a rose for once, but I would not've made either move that he made.

Read what I said. I ddint say I had a problem with him challenging. I had a problem with WHAT HE CHALLENGED!

You simply heard wrong Shane. The announcers were also wrong. The ref said that they were challenging the "interception".

Even if he said "reception", it should not have mattered. Fitz had the ball and was down, Peterson took it away. Hence, it's not a "reception", "interception" "conception" or "infection". The refs blew the play, not Green.

Nope. They clearly said reception. If thats what Green challenged hes an idiot. He should have challenged that the WR was down by contact. Plain and simple. We all know a WR gets a tie. We all know that when he hits the ground hes down as long as hes being touched and he was. Thus down by contact. Ball cant be wrestled away when your down.

No - they said INTERCEPTION.


But still AWFUL REFFING.

Shane,
When that play happened, Denny probably saw the plays twice. Once live. The second on the Jumbotron. After that, Denny's going off of what the booth is telling him. Maybe they felt that it was at least incomplete. It is common knowledge that once a play is reviewed for one reason, all rules other that referee's judgement, any ruling can be reversed.

Denny is a questionable coach at least. I agree. There just seems to be a lot of myopia going on around here. On both sides. I know that I have been guilty.

 

[CardShark]

The official said Arizona was challenging the interception. What the announcers were questioning was the fact that the official announced that after they were already supposedly reviewing it and everyone knew it. They were saying "What, were they reviewing something else?". They weren't questioning Green, they were questioning the timing of the announcement. They also couldn't believe the decision to let the interception stand. That was an extremely poor call. The kind that usually throws the Cards into a tailspin.

ShaneH needs to step away from the beer!

Crow coming forward. I must have had one to many beers this afternoon. He did say challenging that its an "interception" Good challenge Green.

Don't be too hard on yourself for you'll probably make a many more bad calls.

 

[CardLogic]

Odd. We pulled out a win even with these BS calls. Unusual for us...

The officiating was horrible today, with most of the crap calls going against the Cardinals. Nothing new there. But I have always said that a good team will play well enough to beat the other team AND the bad calls that go against them.

Today the Cardinals did just that!!

 

[D-Dogg]

Yes, this is correct. No matter what is challenged per se, the refs have to look at the whole play...if they see something else it is supposed to be called. Not just what exactly was challenged.

No issue exists to bitch about Green here.

 

[KingofCards]

It was a bad call by the officials.

Clearly, they spent 15 minutes telling Green what he could or could not challenge.

It should have been Cardinals ball at the 3 yard line.

The blame ends there, man.

None of this really matters. Green's challenge covered ALL of the potential issues around the reception of the ball. By challenging the reception, he doesn't exclude anything there.

Challenging the reception means that he challenges whether the pass is caught, caught by Fitz, complete, incomplete, intercepted, down by contact, everything. It is all covered.

But, according to how it is usually called by a ref on the field, I would GUESS they said that the interception was challenged, which was the call on the field...which is how refs announce things. I haven't watched the broadcast yet, but at the game I couldn't hear how the ref called it...but 99 percent of the time the call on the field is challenged, and the call on the field was interception...so that would be what was challenged.

Regardless, challenging it would cover all the crap involved with a ball being in the air and coming down in someone's hands...that's at least the way the refs are SUPPOSED to handle it.

 

[LVCARDFREAK]

Not according to the Head Ref who does the review. He clearly came out and stated "AZ is reviewing whether or not it was a reception" Even the Fox announcer were like "What? We know its a reception" They stated Green should have challeneged whether or not the WR was down. Per the Ref Green didnt do that.

Doesnt really matter. Once the refs get under the hood, if they see something else, they can change the call. Whether it was a reception or an int,or down by contact.

When the refs came back out to say again that it was being challenged, we booed our asses off. FIGURE IT OUT...be quick about it, refs..

This officiating crew SUCKED out loud.

 

[KingofCards]

I don't know how you can blame Green for a horrible call by the Referees.

I guess, he will say it was my fault, since I am argumentative and have been banned for a year. That makes me wrong.

It wasn't the only time either.

Here's me replying to a thread too soon before reading the rest.

My bad bro...

Drink another beer!
