[QUOTE="DJRichardson4threee, post: 1510808, member: 91103"] I think the referees had more of an impact than we are even letting on. The biggest in my mind was that big play near the end of the half where they ruled “as stands” rather than confirmed. We had them backed up against there end zone on third down and it was pretty clear to me that their receiver was bobbling the ball when he went out of bounds right in front of Lovie. They went on to score that drive to make it 21-10, rather than us receiving a punt right around midfield with a chance to go into halftime with a lead. Then there was the targeting call, the non-review of possible fumble which would have given us the ball in the red zone, and another out of bounds catch, which was much closer and a tougher call than the one I mentioned above. But again, I do think the player stepped out of bounds before “making a football play, with complete possession”. They again would go on to score that drive. [/QUOTE]
