    I don't like it but that's the rule.
    That's if you are making a catch in the endzone. He didn't, he caught it outside and broke the plane. That's a TD.

    Upshaw clipped on that play. No call.
    My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging. -Hank Aaron

    Personally it feels like the rules for receivers change every week. I can barely keep up.

    Slight aside... board slow to load/refresh for anybody else?

    Mike Periera knows what he's talking about

    I can't ever remember him making a call and the refs doing the opposite

    I sometimes think a team should hire him and advise the head coach on challenges!

    Where as RB's can just run in and as soon as they get in its a TD, receivers have to do more.
    Again, I don't think that is right. Once a receiver catches the ball and starts running, he is a runner. Jacoby caught the ball, got two feet down and spun. He's a runner at that point because he's established possession. A break of the plane should be all it takes.

    By the way, sorry if my last post came off harsh. I was/am just pissed about that awful call.

    Sometimes it seems to change between quarters...or even possessions.

    It's slow for me, too.

    I didn't take it personally believe me I'm not thrilled either. I personally think it was a touchdown as well. I think receiver catch rules in general are too convoluted at this point.
