Raiders got screwed

The NFL rulebook reads: "(W)hen an official sounds the whistle erroneously while the ball is still in play, the ball becomes dead immediately." The play is not reviewable. Nonetheless, the touchdown stood.

Whats the rule for this bullsh*t

Nfl need to have a press conference about this

They got that weak a*s roughing the passer call on their last drive that put them in GREAT position to tie. The ply calls and Carr were just simply not there the right team won imo but that whistle and allowance of the touchdown did p*ss me off

I need to see a video again but they showed replay after replay and sounded like whistle blew after ball was caught

Edit: just watched...whistle was blow right at this moment (a millisecond before the ball got to the receiver)

sh*t had no impact...they try to make it seem like db gave up cause the whistle...no impact


2nd edit : they just showed on halftime and the whistle was blown after caught (and thats what was shown during game). The YouTube video had a millisecond before caught.. whichever is right had no impact

You can't blow a play dead when he never stepped out of bounds, it would make no sense to replay the down over either. Outcome was the same no matter what. The league did the right thing

Why was the whistle even blown? Nobody was out of bounds

Weakest roughing the passer call ever, they need to make that sh*t reviewable

Raiders weren't screwed the whistle was blown while the ball was in the air players play through the whistle.... The results would've been the same rregardless.

Go cry about it, they not changing sh*t

They blew the play dead. That means the play is dead, play is over.

Now what if refs started making this a habit…. Costing folks games

Suck it up punks. Dez caught that fukin ball

Why am I never surprised anymore

Don't matter if it made no impact. The rules are the rules. You can't enforce one and not enforce another. Clearly the refs made an error here.

And then to continue and stick by their stance that the whistle was blown after catch when there's clear video evidence showing otherwise is infuriating.

Ref knew the sideline ref messed up blowing his whistle.
Technically the play should have been dead
Bulger did the right thing and that sideline ref should be punished

the fact that the ref that was standing 3 feet away from where he threw the ball and even blew the whistle to begin with was an absolute joke. how do you not see him throwing the ball before he went out when your 1 job is to do just that?

please get rid of these fu*ks for the tournament. goddell will prob bring them back and have them reffing that maga fu*k after tomm.

Yeah that roughing the passer was cool... Browns fan BTW

Exactly.

Whistle = dead play.

I thought I heard the whistle myself before the pass was completed. In that case, for all levels of football, it's an inadvertent whistle, meaning you replay the down.

I’m not talking about this


The whistle had no impact on this place what so ever

Burrow through a dot. Deal with it.

worst sport\league on earth

That's not how it works though

You replay that down according to the rules.
The refs fu*ked up and awarded them a touchdown.

A holding call could have no impact, but you still get penalized for it and replay the down.

And if y’all wanna be petty.. show me video proof of the actual ref blowing the whistle .. I’ll wait.

You’re a bengals fan. You’re biased.

From the NFL RULEBOOK:

Per Rule 7, Section 2, Article (o) of the NFL Rulebook: When an official sounds the whistle erroneously while the ball is still in play, the ball becomes dead immediately. If the ball is in player possession, the team in possession may elect to put the ball in play where it has been declared dead or to replay the down

Whistle blown = play dead. Not sure how this is even a discussion.
