    Did I miss something...is it still an illegal crack back block? Hines Ward rule?



    Go to 7:40 Bud Dupree

    Go to 7:30 if you want to see my favorite play of the game. ..Bens QB sneak

    There were a few head scratching non calls that the league will apologize for this week. the peel back block and the injury timeout when they were out of time outs come to mind.

    I said that as soon as the Bud Dupree hit happened! That looked identical to the hit the bungles were crying about with Juju and burfict.

    Not Steelers related.... but the pats benefited from another non-reviewed questionable catch again. Unless that’s part of the new catch rule changes?

    It was illegal and should have been called. i

    The whole stadium saw it and you heard the reaction from the crowd!

    How the refs miss something that blatant is beyond me!

    Yeah, I think Trent Green called it out in the game.

    I figured the refs had run out of flags to throw by that point.
