facemask and h2h not called. If any one of those happens to Brady, the dolphins player would be sentenced to life in a Siberian prison. Or death by firing squad at the spot of the foul.
Missing that facemask was criminal negligence imo. You have an official who is supposed to be looking right at that play. I thought protecting the QB was a golden rule for NFL officials and its a pretty easy one to spot.
Where did I say "oh its only my team getting screwed" week in and week out? That's right, nowhere. I gave you examples of how the refs cost us the game against Buffalo. You say we should have scored more than that and stopped them more than that, which makes no sense in the real world.
Plain and simple ref's can and do influence a game by making and missing calls. Do they intentionally screw our team? I can't prove it. Watching the game I see calls all the time that are missed. What had really made it clear to me this year is the announcers in the middle of the game have talked about missed calls. That is when you know its getting bad. I'm not sure how you can watch football and don't see how missed calls and borderline calls affect the outcome of the game.
The refs single handedly kept the bengals game somewhat close by ****ing the phins on 2 fumble calls, and in the indy game where luck threw what turned out to be the game winning touchdown, wake being anaconda choked to the ground. How does the refs miss THills facemask? it was in the open field no one but the tackler around him. When steve tasker says the dolphins are getting ****ed on calls (in the titan game) something is a miss with the officiating. It isnt happening just to the dolphins but alot of teams.
What helemt to helmet? If you're talking the play where Tannehill took off and dove for the marker and took a wicked hit, that WASN'T helmet to helmet. Defender hit Tannehill square in the shoulder. If he hit him in the helmet on that play, Tannehill wouldn't have gotten up. He'd have been KO'd. Watch the replay. Not a helmet to helmet hit AT ALL. The facemask was a horrible miss. That was a clear cut penalty, but the other was just a solid, hard, legal football hit.
The rule says that a double foul after the change in possession is spotted at the location of the change, if only you got penalized it would have pushed you back from the spot of the interception. Mike Perriera explained it the other day.
