That helmet to helmet hit on Rodgers was about as blatant as you can get. Pathetic officiating.

I am just as pissed about the Fitzgerald TDs running over Woodson.


Anybody who watches football, knows if Fitz is the one falling down. Woodson gets flagged 100% of the time. But of course offense doesn't

The thing that really burns my ass is that you know damned well if that had been Old Man Winter or Tom Terrific getting hit like that there would have been flags flying in from Missouri.

Bad calls/non calls happen in every game, but damn! it sucks to lose a game like that.

I just had the feeling while in the game chat, that we scored to soon that the end of the game. I was hoping for about 45 seconds remaining instead of 1:45.

I was thinking the same thing, but also need to consider that the TD was essential to stay alive in the game. They saw an opportunity to pick up the points, and did so when they had their chance, rather than trying to wind the clock down and taking a risk on a turnover or settling for 3 (which would have done no good.)

That is exactly the same kind of logic that contributed to their loss in Pittsburgh.

I was clamoring for two or three runs to burn time off the clock before punching it in with less than a minute to go.

Would have been perfect, but I am not expecting anyone to stop drop and roll at the goal line when behind. If leading sure. Not when behind. Get it in when we can.

I had the same feeling last year 2nd MN game. AD 2 minutes left. To much time.

While it WAS a missed call and a MAJOR missed call by the refs, our defense decided not to show up the entire game. Whenever you are relying on refs to win a game you know something went wrong. Had the early turnovers not happened or the MAJOR lack of defense we would have had the game in the bag.

I live in Wisconsin and I am sick of the wine and cheese. Let me clear things up for Packer fans.

The grabbing of the face mask happened after the fumble. Rodgers is no longer a passer. When the ball is loose, there is no possession. The right call would be hands to the face. Even if that was called it would still be Arizona ball 15 yards from the spot of the foul.

One final tweet on end-of-game controversy -- there was no penalty because, by rule, roughing the passer cannot be called on a fumble.

Key point: Prior to the 2008 season, a rule change was approved that eliminated the foul for the incidental grasp of the facemask.

Maybe next year.



Big Schef fan went it comes to getting insider news, but he's wrong.

The last play was not roughing the passer like he said. It was a facemask and that's a penalty. You don't have to twist it or do anything now. Just grabbing it is 15 yards and a first down. That's the new rule.

There is talk that the penalty should have been 15 yards from the spot of the foul and Cardinals ball. That would've placed it at like the Packers 25 yard line.

That again is wrong.

Possession didn't change. It's clear on the replay that Rodgers either just loss possession or still had possession while his facemask is being grabbed. The possession of the football did not change. You only gain possession when you recover and Arizona didn't do that prior to the foul.

The correct call is 15 yards and a Packer first down. The ref missed it and he also missed the helmet to helmet call two plays prior to that.

I personally hate both the rules. I think you should judge intent like they do with pass interferences and I don't think there is any intent on either play, but that's not how the rule is written and I didn't write the rules.

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining. I'm just saying what should have been called. The Packers did not deserve to win the game because of their defense, but it's worth saying that neither did the Cardinals. Their defense stunk too. The offenses were great and deserved to win. My view is Dom Capers deserves a little heat for not coming up with away to answer the Cardinals' offense, but that doesn't take away from the fact that their should've been some yellow on the last play.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
