First one was a catch Brown made out of bounds, no question both feet landed well in there yet it was ruled a complete pass. Ironic thing was that on the previous play Rice caught a pass in bounds but his foot was close (but not too close) to the sideline and they called it incomplete. I would have challeneged but I already checked it out on replay and didnt realize this forfeited your chance to dispute the play.

Next one was when Brown caught a pass, ran 5 yards, got hit and fumbled, Porter picks it up and there is nothing but daylight to the endzone so I'm thinking TD. But instead as soon as he touches the ball on the ground the play is whistled dead. Is this a bug too or do I not know my NFL rules?

Were you able to challenge the ruling on the field in regards to the fumble?

FisherPrice · 09-04-2003, 04:13 AM

when you fumbled was it under 2 minutes in game?

Medway · 09-04-2003, 04:15 AM

Well I did get possesion of the ball. And even the announcers called it a fumble. So I'm not sure what I could have challenged. I did a replay and as soon as Itocued it on the ground I hear a whistle. I thought maybe it was some new rule.

I had shades of the snow bowl earlier in the game. got intercepted aand on the next play I blitz and force a fumble but "upon further review: it was shown that the QB"s arm was in a forward motion" etc... I was playign the browns but still...

Yes I belive it was at about 1:40 to go before halftime.

I noticed one play where, when the guy that caught the ball ran out of bounce, the clock continued to run. Doesn't the clock only run when the ball is declared dead IN-bounds?

If you fumble in the last 2 minutes you can not advance the fumble.

I think they changed that rule like 1 or 2 years ago. Now it only stops when you go out with under like 2min left in a each half.
