I am not blaming the referees for the outcome of the game as we made more than enough mistakes to cost us the game...but...You have a rule where the player with the ball has to be touched down and Cam did not take a cheap shot at him..he pushed him. You really think Cam was taking a cheap shot or following the rules of the game? It makes me sick that they throw a flag on that..I hope that the league looks back on this and penalizes the official who made that call.

I know it won't happen...because in the NFL...there is no way anyone can criticize an official and they very very rarely admit a mistake. Let the Titans earn those last 12 yards..let them earn the FG. You want your coaches accountable..your players accountable..how about holding your Officials acountable? Let the players DECIDE the outcome...not some ticky tack call.:no::no:

It is the only Personal Foul in the History of the NFL for touching a player down.

I just don't see how you penalize a player for following the rules. Its just a terrible call.

Can you guys believe this was the final nail in our coffin? I mean, had the INT just been returned for that 15 yards(or had they earned them on the drive) and we had the same outcome and at least it was something of our own doing. But such a ticky-tack, controversial call IN OVERTIME, putting them inside of Field Goal range, is absolutely a crock.

This is FOOTBALL. He was making sure he was down. That was a horrible call. The NFL desperately wants the Patriots to win the division.

The bigger problem is even after they huddled up they would not pick up the flag. I hope they are looking at it now and are sick over it(not to mention costing him money and a spot in the playoffs)

I don't think they do anything if the ref doesn't call that. **** I hate all those ticky tack penalties that they called.

Look, the call sucked. And it ****ed us. But if Henne doesn't throw a 3rd INT it's a moot point. If we score six on the first drive it's a moot point. If we don't turn the ball over 3 times in the red zone, it's a moot point. If Vontae doesn't get burned twice for TDs, it's a moot point. We beat ourselves out there today.

That was my major point when I wrote this..WE cost ourselves the game..not the Refs..but that call was just wrong and the guy who made it should be held accountable

The outcome of the game will not ever be changed. I just want an admission from some in the NFL that is was a MISTAKE..a poor call and really bad decision from the Official

I don't think we need to qualify the thread before discussing the topic. Nobody is denying we made mistakes and got ourselves into a bad spot today.

The point is, the referees heavily influenced the outcome of the game with that call. Yes Henne threw the pick. But that ridiculous flag moved them into FG range before their offense stepped onto the field.

And that is Mike Periera's worst nightmare. A blown call directly influencing the outcome of a game.

Make the throwback uniforms permanent!

I agree...just hate blaming anyone else for the loss but ourselves. I am big on accountability. That includes the Officials and Mike Periera.

Eh, you know what is going to happen, Periera will show his face on NFLN, say they made the right call, and the whole thing will be treated like it never happened.

The guy was kneeling down for so long that the refs should have blown the whistle.. instead they allowed him a chance to get up, his teammate that was standing right next to him told him to GET UP... Camarillo having seen this did the RIGHT thing, no whistle, touch the guy down! Unreal that the refs yet again make these huge mistakes against us and influence the game. You know how in hockey you don't call penalties in overtime in the playoffs... well very rarely... the refs just pretty much let anything go unless it is absolutely blatant. Apparently, in the NFL it's the complete opposite. Makes me angry that the Titans did nothing to deserve this win (from the fourth quarter on), and even angrier considering what was on the line.

Mcnabb just threw a pick in the endzone. The corner took a KNEE, the receiver came up and tackled him from behind anyway.

No flag.

On the draft Quentin Rollins bandwagon.

I don't have that game, but I was just coming to post that somebody brought it up elsewhere.

Terrible call.

To have a grudge, you have to name the Ref.

Which slimey no load having piece of elephant dung made that crappy call?

Looks like it's the Scott Green Crew per those links.

Anybody know which official it was who threw that flag?

No worse than the 2nd holding call on Soliai or the non-calls on the Titans OL. We had no rush because our guys were getting bound and gagged on the line, yet nothing was called.

However, that isn't why we lost.

Refs did a nice job handing them the game. They didn't let a physical team get physical. Nice job protecting CJ there at the end too. God forbid he hit the ground.

Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.
