I don't think thats accurate. You can challenge anything thats challengeable and anything challengeable can also be changed in the review if I remember correctly. [Reply]

the PI no-call on Fuller they picked up on Brady's next play, so it didn't matter.
Looked like the correct call to me, the pass was uncatchable. The ball was clearly behind both the receiver and defender, the receiver momentum was going away from the ball and towards the corner, the only way he could have made a reasonable attempt to catch the ball would have been to turn to the inside (his right). Instead, he turns back into the defender that would have provided absolutely no reasonable attempt to catch the ball, even if there had been no defender there at all. Classic uncatchable pass and the referee decided not to bail him out in his poor attempt to draw, outside of trick plays, what was the Pat's most productive offensive gameplan: try and get pass interference.

Too few people saw this and know why the official didn't throw the flag. You're 100% correct. [Reply]
Just checking in to see if there’s been any progress made for the Patsies whining about the refs. Checked ESPN app, looks like the score still stands. [Reply]
