Packers get screwed by refs in last second. Jennings caught the ball in the Endzone for an INT, had the ball in his chest, came down with it in bounds, the WR got a hand on it, and took it away after they were down. During the review, this was clear as day. Seahawks got the TD somehow...
And it, just like in the Wyoming/Toledo game, was just the icing on the cake of horrible, HORRIBLE refs.
Packers @ Seahawks

The NFL doesn't give a rat's ass that fans are upset, they know they'll keep selling tickets and merchandise no matter what. They have the real refs by the balls and won't cave until they get what they want (i.e. cutting the refs' retirement benefits).

Simultaneous possession always has and always will go to the receiver Packers didn't get screwed they both caught the ball.fromolwyoming wrote:Packers get screwed by refs in last second.

No way. The Packers DB had full possession of the ball. Tate didn't even have a hand on it when they landed on the ground.Wyo2dal wrote:Simultaneous possession always has and always will go to the receiver Packers didn't get screwed they both caught the ball.fromolwyoming wrote:Packers get screwed by refs in last second.

No, the Packer's DB had both hands on the ball, brought it to his chest, landed both feet inside the endzone, and then Tate tried to grab it away. Not too mention Tate comitted offensive pass interference by pushing another Packer's DB to the ground that would have caught the ball as well.Wyo2dal wrote:Simultaneous possession always has and always will go to the receiver Packers didn't get screwed they both caught the ball.fromolwyoming wrote:Packers get screwed by refs in last second.

The analysis by Steve Mariucci has been the best analysis I have heard so far. He explained that the Seahawks receiver while coming down from his jump did not have his right hand on the ball while the Green Bay DB had both hands on the ball the whole time. Watch the replay and you will see when Tate takes his right hand away from the ball and Green Bay player.Wyo2dal wrote: Simultaneous possession always has and always will go to the receiver Packers didn't get screwed they both caught the ball.
It was not simultaneous possession and that is where they got it wrong.
