    Mike Pereira ‏@MikePereira
    Agree with Sims. There is a quick grab and a pushoff. Not one that is going to be called. Nothing obvious in real time.
    I didn't think it was a penalty

    I've always hated the argument that "you don't make that call at the end of the game." A penalty is a penalty and a foul is a foul no matter what time of the game it is. If you would call it any other time in the game, then you should call it at the end as well.

    Anyways, that ended up being an entertaining game. I definitely turned off the TV before Ray Lewis started spouting off his god bullshit.

    The game should be called the same way the entire game. Bottom line. The fact that it happened at the end of the game, or whether the play in question was only a "quick grab" is completely irrelevant. Call the game as the rule book intends it to be called.

    #15 vs #22 is not a foul in the first quarter.

    I definitely don't think anything was blatantly missed. It could have gone either way, and if anything I think there should have been offsetting penalties.

    I don't think that I have ever seen an offsetting PI foul called in the NFL.

    It's almost as if Ray Lewis is just mocking his victims. He's a first class ass----.

    And in that case, the a no-call is fine. But I've sure seen lots less contact called before.

    Which is why I have no problem with the no call.

    Just saw on twitter they are indeed the favorites.
  • Sonofanump
    Pats are probably the favorites since the AFC is weak.

    I couldn't agree more. I used to respect Lewis because of the way he played the game. Now, I'm tired of him and his platitudes.

    Same. He's probably got some skeletons in his closet so the holy life he's living is getting old.

    Thank you. I had quite the treat reading all of the "game was rigged" Facebook posts.

    Do you respect Ray Lewis as a person?

    I understand you are a fan of the Ravens, so I get that -- naturally -- you would love what he brings to your team athletically. But Ray Lewis is an abhorrent figure.

    You do mean real skeletons, don't you?

    I really don't know what to think. I mean if he was part of a group that murdered two guys for no reason I agree he's a piece of shit but we don't know what really happened. Even if I wasn't a Ravens' fan I would have this same stance.
