Re: Arm going Forwad, Hmmm Intentional Grounding!?!?!?!
I am thinking that MAYBE just MAYBE there was a receiver on the side close to the line of scrimmage and they gave him the benefit of the doubt because he was hit while throwing. That or they totally screwed the pooch on the call...;)

It was horrendous to call it a fumble to begin with - THE BALL WENT FORWARD. They had their head up their ass so far with the fumble review that I doubt they even thought to call the intentional grounding.

Technically, Vick was outside the Tackle Box. However, he didn't have an eligible receiver anyways.
The whole play was such a clusterfuck that I don't think anyone really know what was going on. The grounding got lost in the 20 minute conference the refs had.

and to think, it wasn't even the worst mistake the refs made in that game.

I thought that when a QB makes a throw outside the tackle box he still has to get the ball to the line of scrimmage? Did Vick do that?

I really don't think it is worth constantly hollering about this one. The Jones TD was the egregious call that really did it for the Ravens.
