Correct. The play was ruled incomplete on the field but the PI call negated any need to challenge it. Nicks did not get a reception on that play.

He absolutely did catch the pass and I lost my game by 1.6 involving Nicks. However, those are the breaks and no use crying over it. The refs blow calls all the time, and this is akin to calling pass interference when it never happened (ala the Packers-Saints game).

Just my opinion.

Just my opinion. Darren Sproles stepped out of bounds at the 2-yard-line against the Bears and shouldn't have gotten the touchdown. The refs admitted they blew the call. So Drew Brees and Sproles owners are thrilled and Mark Ingram owners got kicked in the groin.

Stuff happens every week in the NFL. That's just the way it is.

How would you be getting reamed on Ingram? You are ASSUMING that 1) the Saints would give him the ball and 2) he would actually get in (which he has yet to do).

I can guarantee you have been on the good side (owning Sproles and playing against Nicks) of these situations PLENTY of times and have boasted about how you drafted these players, etc.

Consider this karma coming full circle.

Yet they let a very obvious foot out of bounds get past the reviewer. And if the Bears had challenged it I believe it would have been a penalty. Makes you wonder what exactly they are doing in that booth.
