His foot goes down at one point then comes up, so just because you can show one picture where it's up doesn't mean it wasn't ever down.

Steelers won. End of story. Cardinals were lucky that he didn't make the other touchdown catch before that play.
Hah, yeah. Forgot about that but I was saying the same thing when it happened.

Also where was the ball when his foot touched down?? STill a poorly officiated game in my opinion...

they have to seriously take a look at some of these penalties and warrant when they are called...I mean the roughing the passer on Ben...geez....

Harrison not getting ejected!! no using the ball as a prop....either call the celebratory penalties right or just let them freakin show emotion and celebrate!!

This play is very, very, difficult to tell exactly when he gained possession and if he dotted the i with the right foot before the foot raised in the air.

I tend to think it was a TD.



However........there was no chance in hell the refs were going to let the Cards win that game...........NONE!!!!

To answer your question........NO.

Check the record books, the Steelers won.


However, the problem with the officiating is that the close calls always go in favour of the Steelers.
That way, any calls that are too close to overturn on replay will always go for them.

It's just a fact of life, and isn't going to change anytime soon.

Even when the refs call it fair on the field (like in that game where the Steeler WR caught the ball at the 1 yard line and was driven back by 2 defenders) and then replay looked at it and reversed it!!!!


I think that was against Baltimore and the WR cleary never broke the plane and the refs on the field marked him down. The replay both then reviewed on their own and gave Pitt the TD, even though the replay rules state that there must be CLEAR VISUAL EVIDENCE to overturn a call on the field.


I knew right then that the league was in bed with the Steelers. It is just too much of a coincidence that EVERY FREAKING CALL goes to the Steelers in virtually every game. We get hosed every freaking week by the refs and Pitt is "protected"............Makes me want to puke.

Better question: When did AP become a Cowboy?

That right foot initially started up when he caught the ball, then came down, then came back up... A picture does no justice. Watch a close video and it's blatantly obvious that was a catch.
Please and you know this how. I haven't seen a pic yet that shows both of feet down in bounds with ball in hand. I have seen numerous pics with only one foot down.

Doesn't definitively show both feet down. That 2nd pic is from an angle where it looks like his foot is down but you still can't see it clearly on either pic.

HAHAHA you're not funny. Neither one of those pics tells me anything. One pic looks like both feet are down but where is the ball. The other pic shows it from the other side of the field. You sound like a closet Steeler fan.

Get over it. He caught it with both feet in bounds. You might as well as show both feet out of bounds after the catch - doesn't prove a thing.

I did and it still wasn't clear to me. It won't change anything and that is not my point but showing still pictures where it sorta looks like the right foot is down from a certain angle does nothing for me. It is one of those plays that will be talked about forever but there is no need to get defensive about it. Not talking about you but Wonderboyromo **cough** aka closetsteelerfan.
