Let's be honest Steelers got lucky

And everyone claiming that is wrong. The way the rule is written right now, it was the correct call. Again, Likely dropped the ball, and he's the only one to truly blame for that call. And it's not a one off for him.

Integrity of the game is hilarious...Did you know Micah Parson's doesn't have a single holding call drawn on him all year? Sound familiar? Watt and Harrison can relate, but you want to talk about integrity of the game.

It was first down. Second down they get 8 yards with a pass to Henry, then couldn't get 2 yards on 3rd and 4th down. It wasn't like it was a fourth down call...You're wrong about the call. It's two average teams, it's not gonna matter at the end of the season, just move on...

It's hilarious to you. And that's OK. I don't care if the player has a history of drops. How is that relevant

But two feet, a football move or enough time to make a football move is the rule

Thems the rules, have a good weekend sir
 
This entire debate is an exercise in futility,
Not to mention non-consequential.

The league has an overall plan and agenda, and it’s pretty obvious unfortunately, that decisions are made to sway outcomes every Sunday, especially in games of importance with playoff implications.
So the question is why would the league prefer the Steelers to win the North and not the ravens this year?

I hope I’m wrong about all this, but it just becomes more and more evident every season.

So the other question is , if this is the case and I somewhat believe it’s happening, why do I still watch it, and even more thought-provoking, wager on it?!?

Answer my own question, it’s because I demand entertainment!
To quote an old friend of ours lol

Exactly. It gives them a gray area to work in

Football move or enough time to make a football move

The "enough time" is the dumbest part of the rule. You are talking about split seconds how long is enough time? That is almost impossible to determine. I am not seeing a football move so I say the call is correct. He reached out for the ball to make the catch. I did not see him purposefully extend it more or do any of the other stuff. If it was against the Steelers i would feel the same way. As others stated that was not a game ending play. It was only 1st down and the Ravens had opportunities to score again. I question the Rodgers non int more but I feel that call was probably correct as well.

I don't expect you to understand this even though it's super simple. For whatever reason you want to focus on me and my "sad heart" instead of the topic

Our result on Sunday was favorable but that makes us long-term losers. Don't be an idiot
