Because the official ruled that he was falling, it was technically the correct call. If you are falling when you catch in the end zone, you must maintain possession all the way to the ground. Jennings failed to do that, so it was not a touchdown. The issue at hand is whether he was falling or not when he caught the ball.

He wasn't falling when he got three steps in...

He was falling after the defender ran into his legs after him making the catch and taking three steps though....

SHOULD OF BEEN A TD!

He was robbed. What a horrible call. They made the wrong call twice, once in real time and once after viewing a replay.

The worst part is I think the official didn't understand the rule. that's no good!

it was clearly a touchdown. possesion + 2 feet down in endzone= TOUCHDOWN.

Is there a rule on how many feet a player has to get down to eliminate the going down to the ground rule?

I think the main thing from that standpoint is that he had possession. He wasn't bobbling the ball. The ball was knocked out by the defender after he had already scored.

I'm pretty sure it was the right call. I am more upset that Jennings couldn't hang on to the ball.

[quote="Greg C."]They paid us back on the interference non call by Hawk. At least to some degree. The Perierra will admit that was a mistake later in the week.

But the non-call on Hawk was in real time. You expect some of those to get missed. But with the Jennings call, the officials had the opportunity to review the play and still made the wrong call.

I think the officials, overall, do a terrible job with instant replay. They often overturn calls that are too close to overturn, and then sometimes they fail to overturn bad calls. Also, they take too much time to make calls that are obvious as soon as you see the replay.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
