NFL 2015.1 - if the ball weighs as much as a duck, it's a catch!

Re: NFL 2015.1 - if the ball weighs as much as a duck, it's a catch!

Only caught the final four minutes or so, just after the Cardinals TD, so I can't comment on the rest of the game, but really the only thing I have to add is I would've gone for 2 after the Hail Mary. The review gave plenty of time to draw a play up and the decision might've caught Arizona off guard with no timeouts left.

McCarthy is something like 1-9-1 in OT, his only win coming with Favre, and the last two Rodgers never touched it.

That play and the Clinton-Dix INT should have been ruled incomplete by the way the rule reads.

They should make it easy. Possession + 2 feet (or equivalent) in = Catch.

I believe the Clinton Dix one counts because it never moved and was controlled when it touched the ground but that one doesn't really change the game, it would have been 4th down so maybe a little change in field position.

The Fitzgerald one clearly moves when it hits the ground and is not cleanly possessed.

1 play and Carolina has more rush yards vs Seattle than MN did...

FWIW, the Fitzgerald one didn't really change the game either. Arizona wound up throwing a pick in the endzone. Green Bay lost a timeout, but they didn't need it anyway.

Panthers' win probability was .90 BEFORE the third touchdown.

Long term give me Josh Freeman over Cam. Better leader, more consistent passer, more clutch, more poised under fire, more careful with ball.

I bet Peter Carroll wishes he kicked a field goal on 4th and 5 in the first half. Would be a seven point game right now

Game is getting interesting now. How mad would Carolina fans be if they let a 31 point halftime lead slip away from them??

Seattle gets 3 plays off before 2 minute warning, Andy Reid, none

Let's go ahead and pencil the Patriots into the Super Bowl. This game is crap
