@BuffaloKL *4 TO’s, really 2 on him

[Rich Luchette @richluchette]

We’ve reached the “slowing down replays is actually a bad way to review plays” stage of the NFL’s crisis communications plan.

What a disaster this has been for the shield.

[taylor @hardypadder]

@RyanJKosior @DocLibertarian @RobertSportsBet @DanWetzel his shoulder bounces off the ground and he maintains possession until the rollover, the ground clearly did not knock it loose the defender did after he survived the ground, how do you not see that?

[taylor @hardypadder]

@MillsTwitch yes take the defender out and he just simply survives contact with the ground and it’s a catch lmao, he hits the ground keeps control then rolls onto his back as it’s stripped. the rule is in place to see a receiver control a ball when he hits the ground and he does

[taylor @hardypadder]

@ShannonSharpe Piggybacking off of other dumb comments doesn’t change what actually happened, Brandin cooks absorbed contact with the ground held onto the ball rolled onto his back and then had the ball stripped…it wasn’t just a knee down, he survived the ground

[Aaron Quinn @AaronQuinn716]

The NFL should offer transparency to teams of recordings of what decisions are being made "in NY"

Let's see what they see, how they discuss it, why they make calls they do.

Also, would be nice to see more consistency in when NY is called upon.

"NY" just seems like something lurking behind the scenes nobody really knows about.

[taylor @hardypadder]

@Radze11 @GregVorse The problem is he didn’t bobble it, it was ripped from his hands as he had already rolled over onto his back… and if this many people disagree with the call maybe a proper pause to review the call would have been warranted no?

[taylor @hardypadder]

@Matty_KCSN it was ripped away while he was possessing it on his back. if not at the moment when he rolls over with the ball in his stomach not moving, when do you them say it IS a catch? when he stands up?

Bills HC Sean McDermott had more to say well after the game ended via a pool report:

“That play is not even close. That's a catch all the way. I sat in my locker and I looked at it probably 20 times, and nobody can convince me that that ball is not caught and in possession of Buffalo. I just have no idea how the NFL handed it, in particular, the way that they did. I think the players and the fans deserve an explanation, you know?

Q: Did you read the pool report?

“Yeah, (Derek; Bills PR) sent it to me. I just got it. I wish I would have gotten it before my press conference.”

Q: Is there any recourse here for you? What can you do?

“Here's the deal, right? The fans deserve more. The players certainly deserve more. They deserve an explanation, and it's a shame that a game is decided on a call like that, and there is no time spent with the head official going underneath the hood or to the replay booth, right? To the monitor. I don't understand how that works. I don't understand how that could be the case when it's such a close play, so basically there is one person ruling on that play or, only New York ruling on that play? I don't agree with that. If that's the case, I don't agree with that -- that that is the best approach to decide a game like that.”

Q: You've always been cautious about commenting on officiating. Why do you feel in this situation that it is so important to share how you feel about it?

“Because I only speak up when there is a wrong. In this case, it happened to be to our team. We win with class and we lose with class in Buffalo. That's how we handle our business, but when I'm looking at the replay myself and I'm being objective and I'm saying, 'you can not convince me that that was not a catch, Buffalo possession, ball at the 20. You can't convince.' I'm speaking up because I feel strongly that that was a catch and that possession should have been ball belongs to Buffalo. I can't agree with their assessment of a change of possession or whatever the statement was. I can't agree with that. We're not just going to sit here and take it, is what I'm saying. We're not just going to sit here and take it. I'm pissed off about it, and I feel strongly as I've looked at it in review in my own locker that it's a catch, possession Buffalo, and that the process should have been (long pause) ... handled differently. I don't understand why the head official who is at the game does not get a chance to look at the same thing people in New York are ruling on. “

[taylor @hardypadder]

did he survive the ground?!?

[Alex Monaco @Alex__Monaco]

Did that ball bobble on the Marvin Mims ground or #Bills #Broncos

[Tyler Dunne @TyDunne]

Sean McDermott understandably pissed.

[The Middle-earth Mixer @MiddleearthMixr]

If there was ever a reason to stop watching the NFL its today. Absolutely unwatchable and rigged against the Bills pass interference calls and gambling have ruined this game

[Jeff D. Lowe @JeffDLowe]

Whatever the right side of the call may be, I cannot believe there was not an extended review. The NFL will sit on the most pointless review you've ever seen weekly, but not this one?

[Hänsel @UberHansen]

What's a catch? What is PI?

WTF WAS THIS BULLSHIT

[Hänsel @UberHansen]

Last year the #Bills season ended on a tush push where they clearly got a first down, officials said they didn't.

This year the #Bills season ended on a completed pass that was clear but officials said was an INT.

Fun shit.

[John Frascella (Football) @NFLFrascella]

This may go down as the most controversial call of ALL TIME

Brandin Cooks has it, knee hits the ground

McMillan comes up with it afterward

… Broncos ball??

I guess I just don’t understand football anymore.
