I tend to agree. And if you can't catch it, Job #2 is to make sure the other guy doesn't get it either. Finley failed on both counts on that play. That's not a good play, perfect throw or not.

And I 100% agree with you that if a receiver can get his hand on the ball, its his responsibility to catch it. I never once disputed that. However, simply because a ball is touched doesn't mean the pass couldn't have been put in a more advantageous position for the receiver. You seem to be ignorant on the blatant fact that there was pass interference on the play and refuse to account for it. Err, it's not a fact cuz it wasn't called, lol. You get the damn idea!!!

I like how we are bashing Finley for one play that he messed up on in this game. He didn't get many targets in the Raiders game. In fact that play is the only one that I remember. But I do remember him making some good blocks, which is also a job for the TE.

He did have one catch but a penalty nullified it.

Well Grant played well, Driver played well, Bush played well, Hawk didn't play, Packers are 13-0.

SOMEONE HAS TO BE THE FALL GUY!!!!!!! Even in a 46-16 victory, SOMEONE HAS TO BE BLAMED!!!!

I really didn't want to mention the fact that if Aaron would not have thrown behind Nelson then Kuhn the 2 previous plays, the Finley play would have never happened.(go ahead bash away at me but facts are facts)

I went back and viewed the play frame by frame, the Oakland db, found the ball then turned face to face with Finley, put his hands directly in front of Finley's face, inside of Finley's arms and hands, Jermicheal was able to close his hands around the ball but could not bring it in to his body, the ball slipped out of his hands and went off his chest right into the defenders gut, where he controlled it before he was thrown out of bounds by Finley.

Jermicheal may have been able to controll the ball, but he was falling backwards and his momentum took him away from the ball. A little higher throw and the Finley may have been able to snatch the ball and keep it away from the defender.

IMHO it was just a great defensive play by the Oakland db.

Another note: it's really easy to say what Finley "could" have done when we are watching a replay in slow motion. The fact is that it was a bang bang play and a really good play by the defender. Why don't we just give credit where credit is due?

---

The DB also grabbed Finly's face mask before the ball got there.

---

because we all must know white Aaron Rodgers does nothing wrong and is perfect and it's easier to blame the "loud mouth" black fella. Factoid!

---

A great play by the DB? Only in the sense he didn't get caught. It was a flagrant case of pass interference.

u seem mad. u mad bro?

This phrase needs to die. (no, I'm not mad about it)
