I agree, that's why I hope they have in their cap room about $24 a mil to spare. Rookies are cheap, he won't be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geronimo Allison turning up field is a "football move" and then getting striped a split second later makes it a fumble. Intentionally laying out as you cross the goal line is not?

pipGofern Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 That's what irks me. I can understand if you dive for a catch and needing to hold on to it all the way through the five or while tumbling. But James caught it, turned his body in a football move, and dove. Only then did it bobble. To me it's at worst a catch and a fumble...which he recovered. Damn has football gotten ridiculous when a clear catch isn't even a catch anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that it is clearly considered a feature, rather than a bug. If it's been a problem this common, and for this long, clearly they do not see it as a problem. It is Working As Intended.

Shadow Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I hope this sale doesn't drag on nearly as much as the sale of the Hurricanes did. I hope that an investment group can be found that, while moving is extremely unlikely, is committed to keeping the team in the Carolinas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sure did drop it. His left hand came off the ball entirely and flipped around so that the back of his hand was on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Again if that Jenkins TE for the Jets can't get a touchdown against the Patriots because his hands went off the ball for a millisecond when diving for a TD then the Steelers aren't getting that catch for the TD.

Brian Fowler Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 It definitely was a drop by rule (the Dez thing, on the other hand, it literally depends on which of the two clauses you read in the catch rule.) This was black and white. Right call, arguably dumb rule. Fumble out the endzone is still the worst though. The rules literally change for no reason. Offense should get the ball at the spot of the fumble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
