I don't care what the refs say about process blah blah blah. Worst call I have ever seen. If that was not a TD then I don't know what is. :shock:

That was brutal. What a huge gut-punch to the fanbase.

I simply couldn't feel any worse for the Lions or their fans.

The call was right. The rule is stupid. I have seen many catches over the past several seasons that were catches and ruled incomplete for the same rule.

Can't blame the refs on that one. Blame the rules committee that continues to ignore the rule.

Hines Ward was victimized by the same rule on a touchdown catch last year or the year before. It is ridiculous because it is illogical.

That's the one I was thinking of Ralphie.

Sickening. The more time that passes the angrier I get.

Earlier in the game Jahvid Best got credit for a touchdown that wasn't a touchdown.
When CJ's touchdown happened I wasn't all that upset because it's not like we're a play-
off team.. especially with Matthew Stafford being out of the lineup. I mostly felt bad
for Calvin. I just hope Shaun Hill can get him the ball. I want to beat Michael Vick this
week!!

This.

Absolutely correct. I hate the rule. But it is the rule.
