Steelers at Ravens Game Comments & Bedwetting

[.Kodiak]

Nice catch you midget bum

I don't think any team should ever punt on 4th and 1 between the 40s any more. Well, maybe if they do something about all these 60+ yard FGs

[Steelperch]

We benched the wrong receiver

[pickarooney]

We have no idea what to do in these situations.We do not realize we need to get to the ball on snap.We do not realize we shouldn't be changing personnel and allow the other team time to change personnel

Yep. Morons. Rodgers knew it.

[K_C_]

If Zay Flowers was awarded a catch, Austin should have been too. Ball never hit the ground.

[Texas Black & Gold]

Now that isn't a catch.

Not only that but the Rats get their to back

[langer]

How did he not catch that. Jeezus. Could not have been a better throw.

[langer]

JT Watt playing outside contain

[.Kodiak]

dude wearing the concussion helmet is seriously messing with my viewing experience

[Steelperch]

If Zay Flowers was awarded a catch, Austin should have been too. Ball never hit the ground.

Stop being a homer. Flowers had clear possession in bounds with a knee down before the ball moved. Austin let the ball slide between his hands and never secured it until both feet were out of bounds.

[TTP]

Looks like the < 10 points in the first quarter streak will remain intact.

Historic.

[K_C_]

We’re getting fucked today.

[Stosh-67]

Ticky

[CzechSteeler]

Peezy jr with another DPI.

They both should be no catches for sure

[SteelPro]

Why did Rodgers subject himself to this mess? Dude should be enjoying himself. Instead he’s spending the final year (probably) of his career surrounded by morons and he’s obviously hating life.

[CzechSteeler]

Historic.

Never doubted that.

[LakecrestSteeler]

Now that isn't a catch.

Not enough replay. He did get control and was still falling. I thought they dismissed it too quickly as not a catch.

Did he pinch it in his lap before his ass hit? CBS didn’t show enough of the replay.

Bullshit. The ball was moving when Flowers landed. No catch. Same thing with Austin. Ball was moving but never hit the ground. If Flowers play was a catch, so was Austin’s.

[.Kodiak]

It's a surprise when teams DON'T get 6+ yards rushing against us

[Steelperch]

Peezy jr with another DPI.

He gets more weak PI calls than anyone in the league.

Glad he got in Tomlins face

Austin never secured the ball. It went right through his awful little hands.

[tbsteel]

When did our fans become such crybabies?

Yep. It was more of a catch than Flowers’.

[anpsteel]

Nope. It wasn't moving when he hit the ground. It was fully secured with his knee down in bounds when he he the ground. As he continued out of bounds, the ball moved in his hands SLIGHTLY but he never lost control. Control of the ball was maintained therefore = a catch.

That’s not the rule

If you go to the ground- you have to survive the ground and maintain control throughout


That was not a catch

From the NFL rulebook:

"A player who makes a catch may advance the ball. A forward pass is complete (by the offense) or intercepted (by the defense) in the field of play, at the sideline, or in the end zone if a player, who is inbounds:

(a)secures control of the ball in his hands or arms prior to the ball touching the ground; and
(b)touches the ground inbounds with both feet or with any part of his body other than his hands; and
(c)after (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, clearly performs any act common to the game (e.g., extend the ball forward, take an additional step, tuck the ball away and turn upfield, or avoid or ward off an opponent), or he maintains control of the ball long enough to do so.

Notes:

1. Movement of the ball does not automatically result in loss of control.

***

The slight movement by the WR was deemed to not have been a loss of control.

It was a catch and you all are wrong.

Okay

I just looked it up


The rule has been changed

You are correct

[.Kodiak]

I'll admit it. I don't mind Austin as a returner

[PennyBacker]

Nope. It wasn't moving when he hit the ground. It was fully secured with his knee down in bounds when he he the ground. As he continued out of bounds, the ball moved in his hands SLIGHTLY but he never lost control. Control of the ball was maintained therefore = a catch.

He was still in the process of of securing the ball while in bounds. A ball that moves after he hit the ground while in the process of completing the catch does not equal security.

[Steelperch]

Austin sure is fast running out of bounds on punt returns. What a superstar!

[LakecrestSteeler]

Flowers looks like shit even with the non-catch catch.

[K_C_]

Show me where the ball hit the ground. Take all the time you need.
