OSU is getting absolutely screwed
I don’t think the targeting was a bad call.  It sucks.  I’d like to eliminate that from being a penalty but that was targeting.

It was helmet to helmet, but QB wasn't defenseless, player didn't launch.

Disagree.

Wade was targeting. I don’t understand these players. They know that targeting is going to get called every time. It’s f’in SIMPLE....STOP LEADING WITH YOUR FRICKEN HELMET.

Also, calling for the punt block was just stupid coaching. Harbaugh does that crap ALL the time and it’s bitten him in the ass way more times than I care to count.

IMO that was an incomplete. Watched it repeatedly in real time. WR never made a football move or ever really had possession of the ball.

Agree, targeting is a tough call but that was targeting.  Even if targeting didn't exist, it would have been spearing by the older rules.  Still a personal foul but not an ejection.  It's against the rules for numerous reasons, but primarily because lowering the crown of the helmet to deliver a blow is highly dangerous to the player that lowers his helmet.  

But that catch/fumble/TD, on the other hand.... that's tough.  It looked like a catch to me.  Receiver caught it, took 3 steps without bobbling, then fumbled it.... I don't see how that one got overturned.

Defender dropped his helmet to deliver the blow.  That's gonna get the call every single time.  Like I said, even if you don't believe in "targeting" then it's still "spearing" which has been against the rules for decades.

Crown of the helmet to the opponent’s head.  I bet I saw that called on WVU five times this year.

Nobody is debating the roughing.

If 5 steps isn't a football move, then what is?  You have to change direction?

Totally agree with you there.  As a Dallas Cowboys fan that got robbed in a playoff game against Green Bay some years back, I'm very sensitive to this bullshit "football move" lingo.  Taking multiple steps without bobbling the ball is a football move.  Why would we expect a receiver to make some weird lateral shift if it's not necessary as part of the route he was already running?  

The call on the field was correct, and the reversal was crap.

He didn’t take 5 steps. He caught the ball got one foot down then another and then basically immediately the ball was knocked out of his hands. He never had possession of the ball and made a move up the field. Watching it live I immediately thought that it was an incomplete pass.

I simply enjoyed that postseason after the refs gifted the Cowboys a win over the Lions, then proceeded to screw them the following week against the Packers, who went on to choke against Seattle.  Basically the entire NFC playoffs was the football gods giveth, the football gods taketh away.

This turf is an abomination for a game of this magnitude.
