McCoy stepping out of bounds, catches pass, no flag.

Jimmy with defenders draped all over him? Where's the outrage?

11-2 disparity against the most penalized team in the league, NFL has to apologize, where's the outrage??

In fairness, half of our fans fake being ok with this jaw dropping double standard that clearly exists, so I am not sure why we are surprised that it happens.

Outrage is highly overrated in our culture today.

Refs missed a number of plays in this game, so it's not worth commenting about these.

Stepped? Looks like he was doing the hokey pokey with the sideline.

I didn't see this, thanks. Add it to the file to show opposing fans who come here to talk about how all the missed calls go in our favor.

Yep, completely blown with the ref standing right next to him. Didn't even take his hat off. Unless McCoy was first pushed out by a defender (in which he can come back in and 're-establish' himself), there is absolutely no way he can be the first one to touch the ball.

If that isn't roughing the kicker I don't know what is. Fail Mary. Julio Jones. - Gruden

Looks like the ref was actively applying the look the other way policy with his head turned back towards the line of scrimmage.

Could they not have reviewed that? I mean that is clear as day that he stepped out of bounds.

I was, and still am, pissed that Pete didn't challenge the catch. He had a 12 men in the huddle penalty and the end of thd third quarter to see that.

Can't challenge penalties. Question wasn't really if it was a catch, just if he was an eligible receiver.

You can't challenge subjective penalties. There are some objective penalties you can challenge. I believe this is one of them.

Interesting. I did not know that. For the record, I would towards that being a bad idea. I think the penalty thing and reviews should be off the table. I get the objective versus subjective difference but I still think it opens the door to too much fine tooth combing.

Don't challenge the penalty. Challenge the catch. They would have to reverse it.

But he made the catch; that much is incontrovertible.

The illegal touch wouldn't be called because the review won't allow them to consider it, just as it wouldn't "allow" them to recognize holding on the O-line and call the play back.

Not even mentioning the clear incompletion to Goodwin on the preceding play. Why Pete didn't challenge that I still do not know.

Because for of all of Pete's greatness he does have a challenge call issue. He not so good.

The espn announcer mentioned McCoy came back in bounds to catch it, but was quickly silenced by his boss in his ear.

You can challenge that, the same as you can challenge 12 men on the field (happened to us a couple of years ago).

which play was this?

The two false starts that went uncalled don't get any any mention either. One was within their own 10 yard line.
