Wat happens if a ref gets hurt which alt comes in
If that was OPI against the Pats, why wasn’t it against the Broncos on the play where Welker hits Talib and injures him? ( ball in air Welker ducks down into Talib as he is coming across toward the ball).
Big impact on game – the 2 (1 called) OPI calls – one took the Patriots out of FG range and the non-call kept the Broncos TD drive alive.
The one most related to the position that went down.
What is this crazed man-love for alts with this board? They have as much chance of getting in as I do getting a date with Kate Upton.
MarK: Disagree that “those calls did not impact the outcome of this game” the OPI that was called took the Pats out of FG range early, and the non-call on Welker could have ended the Broncos first TD drive had it been called. Biggest play of game was Pats losing Talib for remainder of game.
So, fine or no fine upcoming for Welker hit on Talib?
