Pass Interference Rule review

[Crease Creature]

This play was not called a penalty in real time, nor did they find anything wrong with it after the Giants challenged....




We're going to need to change the dictionary definition of "interference" before this season is over.

Not only was it pass interference, it appears it was also holding, since it was well past the line of scrimmage. There's little doubt that the officials and the league have a lot to answer for on how they're handling these calls and reviews.

But, as usual, the Pats did get the benefit of a critical call.

obviously the dbs are aware that they can pretty much do anything they want now and have a good chance of getting away with it.

I will quote myself from two weeks ago:

Al Riveron has decided from on high that he and his guys are just not going to overrule calls or non-calls based on a coach's challenge for any play short of murder in the first.
