thanks
with for the info that;
PI can only occur when there is a forward pass thrown from behind the LOS... key word "forward"

confirms my theory... I appreciate your friends input as well.. the play was never shown again on TV from the QB to HB perspective, it was only replayed showing our wideouts supposed infraction on the opposite side of the field. From the intial live action a question of forward pass wasn't considered, as the flag was not mentioned until after the player scored.

I reviewed the play immediatly via TIVO several times to discover the reciever caught the ball at the same yard marker on the field as the QB had released it. Thus a side ways pass.

I feel the proper use of the replay privilage is becomming increasingly more important in the NFL game as it evident the game is harder for the officials to keep up with.

funny you mention your a Viking fan. I feel our team had a similar no replay brain cramp against the Vikings.
if you remember the play, the Vikings were flagged for pass interferance, after which Mike Tyse, threw an innapropriatly used red flag (and tyraid) claiming that the pass was tipped at the LOS. w/o a replay the officials huddled and decided no interferance due to a tipped ball. the replay on tv clearly showed no tip had occurred yet our coach never demanded a replay which resulted in our loss of 1st down.

As a real fan of a team, you realize the choice of another team is never an option.

I do feel all teams must make an asserted affort to fully utilize the replay priviledge to its fullest, it is another aspect of the game and should be part of the plan.

thanks again
