|
|
By:
It was a TD looking at it again
 |
|
By:

|
By:
|
|
By:
Both feet need to be down. No TD.
|
|
By:
Flacco couldn't make that 1st down - he threw it because he was being tackled
|
|
By:
his second foot was down
|
|
By:
incaseof you dont have to make a football move in the endzone
|
|
By:
I think he knocks it out before the left foot comes down.
Split seconds though |
|
By:
I think it's a TD now
|
|
By:
well thats 67p more than me
 jus couldn't see the Ravens loosing it, they were moving the ball ground & air & holding the Pats to zip & then...... win some loose some |
|
By:
that game will haunt the Ravens..how they didnt win that or at least take to OT beggers belief...
|
|
By:
flacco could have dived for 1st down with ease..then spike the ball
|
|
By:
It only looks like he has posession on Slo-mo replay.
He never established posession or made a football move. As the comms rightly say, a different level of posession is required for a TD than in the outfield. |

By:
if the giants get throught tonight they will beat the patriots
|
|
By:
Paul - as stated in the studio the rules are different when in the end zone.
|
|
By:
The balls popped out before his left foot is down.
|
|
By:
no in end zone you have to maintain possession to complete the catch
All you really have to do is watch Bengals late TD vs RAvens this year |
|
By:
that was strange how they didnt even look at it
|
|
By:
completely different scenario incaseof
|
|
By:
After reviewing on SKY+ second foot was NOT down before it was popped out.
|
|
By:
Harry, how could Flacco dive for a first down?
You mean on a QB sneak? |
|
By:
not sure what the exact rule is, but need to maintain possession maybe 3 steps or to the ground (in or out of bounds) afaik
|
|
By:
Touchdown and conversion receptions in the end zone are made when a receiver catch a legal pass and have possession of the football and both feet in bounds within the end zone.

By:
not really, it's all about if you got possession of it...you can have two feet down inbound and drop the ball when you're out of bounds and it's incomplete...have to maintain possession...never did

"A player is in possession when he is in firm grip and control of the ball inbounds. To gain possession of a loose ball that has been caught, intercepted or recovered, a player must have complete control of the ball and have both feet completely on the ground inbounds or any other part of his body, other than his hands, on the ground inbounds. If the player loses the ball while simultaneously touching both feet or any other part of his body to the ground or if there is any doubt that the acts were simultaneous, there is no possession. This rule applies to the field of play and in the end zone."
This Byzantine blather is proceeded by an even more confusing "Note 1," known as the "going-to-the-ground" clause. The G2G states, "A player who goes to the ground in the process of attempting to secure possession of a loose ball [with or without contact by a defender] must maintain control of the ball after he touches the ground, whether in the field of play or the end zone. If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control, there is no possession. If he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, it is a catch, interception or recovery." |

Talking margins here....I though 2nd foot was down then popped out...after slow mo it all happens at same time, tough call.....gutted
|
|
By:
its over now anyway, its in the book as i say
really cant see pats winning it though they arent good enough on defence the giants ould murder that secondary |
|
By:
I'm sure that play will be under the microscope and interesting to see what the media says.
Feel terrible for the kicker, reminds me of the bodged FG from Dallas against the seahawks a few years ago. That was incredible. |

By:
Steve Tyler looks like he has just been dug up
 |
|
By:
none of the ravens coaching staff thought it was a TD, but those that lost on Betfair did.
betfair losers are probably right  |
|
By:
relevant part:
If the player loses the ball while simultaneously touching both feet or any other part of his body to the ground or if there is any doubt that the acts were simultaneous, there is no possession. |
