Wow. Guess that makes up for the B.S. PI on Chancellor that allowed the packers to score.

I'm not a fan of any NFL team. Green Bay definitely had the interception and Tate got away with a pretty blatant pass interference. You have to give Tate a lot of credit for getting his arms in there and holding on and giving the officials the chance to mess it up, which they did.

I get that the replacement officials suck.
But what about these dudes doing the replay? They're the normal guys and they still couldn't get it right. It's either an interception or an incomplete pass. There's no way it's TD for Seattle.

I could be totally wrong since I don't follow the NFL, but don't the replay officials just get as many angles as they can to the referee, who makes the final call? Or do the replay officials make the decision?

The ESPN guys were saying that who had possession wasn't something they could overturn in the review. They had some head NFL official guy talking about how it couldn't be overruled. No idea why, that's just what they said. It's all anyone will talk about this week so I'm sure we'll find out why it couldn't be reversed
People will be discussing/whining about this one for years.
In the NFL, it's the on-field referee who does the review of a play and makes the decision. College has replay officials in the booth.
Yeah, and the NBA gave the Jazz a regular season game for the screw job in Game 6. It still feels hollow.

If Rodgers had Allstate instead of State Farm, he'd be better protected from Mayhem...like this.

While everyone's bitching about the refs, which yeah, they suck... Everyone is ignoring Football 101...
What do you do on a Hail Mary?
Howie, Terry, and Michael?
KNOCK IT DOWN!
I've now seen two Hail Mary passes (this one and another in HS) in the past year that have been completed even though the defender had the ball because instead of knocking it down and ending the game he tried for an interception.
Eliminate the confusion. Eliminate the refs from screwing you over. Knock the ball away, let it fall harmlessly to the ground, and win the game. Had Jenkins spiked the ball like a volleyball to the 5 yard line we wouldn't be having this conversation. Or had he tipped it up backwards out of the endzone, the game would have ended with a favorable result for GB.
Only bad things can happen if you try and intercept the ball on a Hail Mary.

That's right.
