    He did break the plain, but the rule states u have to maintain control of the ball if going to the ground and he did not. As soon as I saw the replay, I knew what was going to happen.

      He's going to ground in the process of catching the ball so he has to maintain control. The ball definitely moved when his hands hit the ground but there's not a definitive view that shows that his left hand wasn't under the ball when he hit. From one angle you can see that it's possible/probable that his left hand is under the ball when the bobble happens. In fact, reviewing on my DVR I can't see any shot that shows the ball clearly in contact with the turf.
      In response to his pleas, an officer said: "You think we've never arrested somebody that's made national media? ... We deal with the Bengals all the time."

        I knew it wasn't a catch. JJ choked.

          Was a TD. Got jobbed. But heck, if the D could only even stop the 2-point conversion the game is ours. The D couldnt stop anything when it mattered.

            New York decided the winner of that game.

            They actually did it weeks ago when they gave us that shady ass referee crew and half assed Gronk’s punishment.
            Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

              If you watch the replay, James' left hand is off and up above the ball and his right hand is on the side of it, just for a second. It's the right call, but it's a dumb ass rule.

                they did not have a timeout, they called the timeout on second down.

                  This is the truth. That second to last drive did us in. We picked a heck of a time to go conservative. The whole world knew Bell was getting the ball

                      From my view he caught the ball, turned, and reached over the goal line. I guess no one really knows what's a catch anymore.

                          That's not the truth. Simply because the Steelers had an opportunity tie or win the game at the end.

                            Sure they do, it's whatever gets the result they want. Seriously, some coach said if you leave yourself in a position for the refs to decide the game, you have already lost, nd we did.

                              that was Cower-ball right there. Try to impose your will. Stupid, conservative, play not-to-lose play calling that I called well before they ran it. You just know that the cheaters knew it was coming.

                              I hate losing that way. Play aggressive. Play to win.

                              We’re cursed against that miserable organization

                                Exactly. As soon as the ball crosses the plane, its supposed to be a dead ball. TD
