Exactly! You got all philosophical there, ajmc! Perfection is an illusion, though to do the best one can is another story. I seem to recall a certain Packer-Seahawk NFL game in which the simultaneous catch was blown by the NFL replacement officials. One can always say that "hindsight is 20/20" and that's exactly what we have going on here.

Yeah and it would be nice if people actually knew that was not a blown call either.

Well... first, it wasn't just this play they screwed up. Something broke down on the previous play as well, as he clearly didn't score. Something was off on that entire drive... what, four interference calls, at least one phantom and one very questionable.

But that final play -
SERIOUSLY not sure how anyone, even a fellow ref, can watch the replay and not see his knee down before letting go of the ball. And the conference agrees.

SERIOUSLY question anyone not seeing the BIB as a BIB. Unless you're just a Miami homer or one of those refs that think we make no mistakes ever. And the conference agrees.

Awful communication of the waiving off of the other BIB.

Missing the guy coming onto the field late was minor - surprised it made the article, and catching that makes no difference.
