funny becasue i heard ben say he had the ball after the "fumble" and was patted on the back in the pile by a ref who said td so he let go of the ball.

the rule states that if it's not ruled a fumble on the field (it wasnt) and the play is whistled dead (it was) there has to be a conclusive fumble recovery to give the other team the ball (there wasnt, it was a pile....that's not a clear recovery)

pretty clear cut it was the right call.....no matter how much you hate the steelers.

if it makes you feel better,so be it...:0008

What makes me feel better is if the "Ravens" fans on this board would stop whining how the Steelers get all the calls every year. Cause I can guarantee you they are way behind with bogus against them. Enjoy your bye week :kiss:

Pittsburgh has been jobbed plenty of times but people only remember the bogus calls in their favor..that called reaked today...but i know in one season years ago(10 maybe) 3 times in one season they got an apology from the league for shitty calls( the sack where the clock didnt stop..thus no chance to down the ball and get a fg off)

It's really simple u can't use re-play to determine a fumble then disregard it on possession :sadwave:

firstly,i had nothing on the game...

i didn`t comment because it was the steelers....i respect the team...for my money,polalmalu is the best defender in football...

from what i saw,it looked like 2 dolphins had hands on the ball(no steelers) when the pile jumped on...and a dolphin came out with it..i don`t really know what else you need...that`s why theres so much wrestling in a pile... to come out with the ball...which the dolphins did..`

.that`s the first time i can remember a call like that...

i thought the dolphins had a legit gripe...it didn`t go their way...

I also had nothing on the game GW.
It looked like Miami had it, but you can see Ben's hand in the pile grabbing for the ball too. Bottom line is that we will never know because you can't see the ball and it was never called. Ref's blew the call by not allowing the play to finish then check the pile for the ball. Regardless, it is done with and I am moving on. Jack, erase this thread, lol....
