Did shayne Graham Miss the game winning FG?

[RedNGold52]

I watched the kick atleast 10 times and he missed the FG. They didn't even review it. If you watch closely the football disappears behind the upright.

i thought the same thing based on the one angle they show on sportscenter. looks like he pushed it right.

 

[TheSportsPredictor]

No, but Rich Karlis did.

 

[Sxysprtswrtr]

Don't ask Rich Gannon.

 

[deskslave]

Pretty sure field goals aren't reviewable.

 

[Simon_Cowbell]

Not unless they bounce off the neck of the goal post

 

[amraeder]

It was good. Looked odd from the back angle, I admit. But that's just because it was a very high kick. It was between the uprights when it crossed, hooked behind after...

 

[dawgpounddiehard]

No, but Rich Karlis did.

Haha. Awesome.

I believe you are referring to the Browns FG against the Ravens last year. IIRC, that wasn't actually reviewed on the monitor, the referee just conferred with the two officials standing below the goalposts. The officials admitted the ball broke the plane of the crossbar before bouncing back, and they mistakenly thought that meant it was no good. The referee corrected them on that and ruled the FG good.

No, but Rich Karlis did.

*sigh*...

But the NFL has subsequently made a new rule making field goals reviewable. The field goal cited above would be reviewable now. However, I don't think it covers all the circumstances. I think those that go higher than the uprights can't be reviewed.

I thought he missed it live. I never saw a good replay.

 

[playthrough]

Isn't it time to make the uprights taller? Everything in the NFL is biggerfasterstronger, and so are kickers. If the uprights had a few more feet on top, it would help.

Though as a Bengals fan, I can live with the call on Sunday

It's time to microchip the ball. No more need to review anything. The sensors go off when the ball crosses the plane of the goal line, through wherever the uprights would be, etc.

 

[lmcmillan33]

Watching the kick, I thought he missed it, too, but I'll take the referees' word for it. Watching a game in person or on TV, I'm often wrong about whether a field goal is good or not. It's really just about impossible to see if the ball hooks before or after the posts. There was never any controversy. The refs were both in agreement that it was good. I'd be 99 percent sure it was good.

What happens when the microchip breaks?

Soccer.

When he kicked it I said, "Geez, he missed it!" But at some point, they did a shot from the front of the goal posts and you can see that it went through.

 

[Twoback]

I'm not claiming a conspiracy or blown call.
I'd settle for my wife not thinking I was insane for hollering out -- he missed it -- and then seeing the refs raise their arms.

 

[Chef]

Good.

From the endzone view, it looked wide right.

Other view shows it was just inside the goalpost.
