Yeah, that really bugged me. After letting the Eagles get away with it I don't know how they could blatently miss that call with ARE. Even Ache-man saw it.
Is THIS sig small enough?
I know he wasn't. We got jipped. It showed the replay a lot of times and he def. wasn't touched. BS call.
He should have had that td. ****ing refs!
Just another TD taken away from ARE and Campbell. Pretty anoying seeing is how Campbell should have 8 TDs now

The most irritating part is the fact that they let him run, and then blew the whistle before he got to the goal line.
They had plenty of time to think about it, and the most obvious option is to not blow the whistle and let the play be reviewed. Absolutely foolish, which would certainly be appropriate given the level of officiating all year long all across the NFL.
9 if you count the DEvin Thomas TD
This time it's even worse than in the Giants game. The ref closes to the play doesn't blow it, but some guy half way on the other end thinks he's had a better angle? Are you ****ing kidding me.
Pearlman writes that Michael Irvin, incensed that tackle Everett McIver, in mid-haircut, would not leave a barber chair at training camp in 1998 so Irvin could get his haircut first, stabbed McIver in the neck. McIver was rushed to the hospital and survived, but not without losing a lot of blood. Irvin's silence on the charge has been deafening. I asked a Cowboy who played on that team if the story was true. "Absolutely,'' the Cowboy said. "I'm surprised it was kept quiet over the years.''
I'm sick of this exact same kind of play being robbed from us. Refs need to get their act together.
That was complete BS, they should've let the play continue and let them challenge if they thought he was down, but the refs dictated that play by blowing it dead.

R.I.P royallypwned
eh it is what it is. we won and thats all that matters
...
NOT!
Agreed, the call was total BS
actually the Eagles defender did touch him on the shoulder when he was down. It was hard to see on the replays they showed on TV but they showed 1 good angle and you could see he was deffinately touched.
Agreed.
I just don't understand how the refs can continually and intentionally blow controversial plays dead prematurely so that they cannot reviewed -- and overturned, if necessary.
Personally, as I've felt for years, there's some kind of referee conspiracy. I can't imagine, other than shear ego, why a referee feels the need to blow a potentially questionable play dead.... and eliminating any possibility of making sure the correct play is called.
I mean, to me, that's the bottom line. The most important thing. Getting the correct call made. Regardless if it was done live or via replay.
The fact that referees have always questioned replay..... blow plays dead prematurely so that certain plays cannot be reviewed.... and often times review replays and STILL make the incorrect call.... wreaks of something fishy.
Something isn't right.
That's 4 times now I think (Devin Thomas TD, Randle El TD, CP TD, and today) that the refs have called back big play touchdowns for us. It's very frustrating
