Kurt Warner fumbles, it WAS reviewed- Super Bowl XLIII

[yourpalal1227]

He's lying. That play wasn't reviewed. That was the tuck rule written all over it.

[toadman842]

HAHA people always looking for an excuse. You could nit pick about every fucking play in every fucking game. Get over it, stuoid Steeler haters.

[AJLambrecht]

@toadman842 doesnt matter anymore that was back in 09 now the packers kicked the steelers ass

[gf19711]

@AJLambrecht Yet you don't hear anybody crying about the loss like a bunch of pussies. Refreshing, isn't it?

[AJLambrecht]

@gf19711 yep i do agree that the steelers were the better team and did deserve to beat cardnals even if it wasnt a fumble they still would of lost

[chuckhowe]

@azrulz1993 inside of 2:00 minutes, the booth upstairs decides whether the play merits a more in depth review by the official on the field. being that this play resulted in a change of possession, the booth had plenty of time to review the play and decided that it did not merit any further review. was this the right call? i dunno, if i was a cardinal's fan i would have liked it to get a more in depth look. but i also don't think the call would have been overturned if it was taken to the field.

[Applelocal]

the ball came loose before hethrew it

[SuperTugz]

I'm a Steeler fan and I still think it was incomplete lol

[chuckhowe]

@SuperTugz perhaps that's why you're a spectator and not a professional referee.

[MattyVfromCT]

@Gbntly7 his arm was not moving forward when woodley initiated contact. he was still winding up when woodley made contact. and the rule isn't as simple as "the arm coming forward". you need to have control of the ball in the follow through. as far as the ball moving forward, WOODLEY KNOCKED IT OUT and warner's arm made it go forward, AFTER he lost possession. enough with the excuses already. i have so many holds, blocks in the back arizona got away with in my vid. we won, end of discussion

[MattyVfromCT]

@Gbntly7 i could go on and on bringing up instances when the nfl came out saying the refs blew a call that cost a game. they admitted the mistake by hochulli against the chargers in 08 when he called a cutler fumble an incomplete pass, giving them another chance to win the game, which they did. they admitted that they blew the call in 98 when they gave testaverde a td for the jets against seattle when the ball was a good yard short. this call was correct. you need to have control of the ball

[MattyVfromCT]

@Gbntly7 continued....they apologized to the giants in 02 after they blew a call in the playoffs, penalizing the giants for an ineligible receiver downfield on a pass from the kicker on a bad snap when A, the receiver was eligible, and B, there was pass interferece so they should have been set up within the 10 yard line as opposed to the game ending. they apologized for the godawful overturning of polamalu's interception in indy in the 05 playoffs that got the colts back into that game, etc

[MattyVfromCT]

@Gbntly7 no it wasn't. listen to what pereirra is saying. the ball was already coming out before his arm followed through. it will all be in my vid that isn't finished yet. and your theory of the nfl "covering up conspiracies" is weak too. i guess that's why the nfl actually apologizes to teams when they blow calls. they sent us an apology letter in 07 after jacksonville won a playoff game against us because the refs missed 2 blatant holds that allowed david garrard to get into fg range

[HUGHtotheBERT]

My ass it was a fumble. He was in motion throwing it foward; it was an incomplete pass. How else would the ball have shot foward if he wasnt throwing it?

[MattyVfromCT]

78 yards. 88 including the 10 yards from the holding penalty on the first play of the game winning drive

[bigphillip25]

Jimmo, shut the fuck up! You cheated. End of fucking story.

[MattyVfromCT]

how did we "cheat". explain this to me. the ball was coming out before warner's arm came forward. for it to be ruled an incomplete pass, the passer must have complete control of the pass while the arm is coming forward. he did not have control of the ball while his arm was coming forward. it was a fumble. do some research. it takes 2 seconds to look up the nfl rule book online.

[bigphillip25]

lol the ball came out with his possession. He tossed the ball out haha.

[MattyVfromCT]

no he didn't. the ball was being knocked out by lamarr woodley before his arm came forward. possession means having complete control like a receiver would have to. that doesnt mean the ball bouncing around in his hand with no grip on it. do your research

[bigphillip25]

WTF? Wow.... Dude, thats like a 3 year old comment.

[skean17]

its not the fake fumble thats my problem, its the one footed catch by santonio holmes that was reviewed and upheld that drives me crazy. and to hell with mike perera or how ever he spells it, that play wasn't reviewed and hes needed fired for about 4 years

[MattyVfromCT]

you're wrong on both cases. santonio got both feet down. i will send you my video that has photographic evidence that proves it to be true. and whether you want to believe it or not, it was a fumble by warner. the ball was coming out before warner's arm came forward. for it to be ruled an incomplete pass, the passer must have complete control of the ball while the arm is coming forward. it was reviewed by the replay official in the booth and correctly ruled a fumble

[gierbolini90210]

who the fuck cares. arizona had 1 play left.wtf were they gonna do? a 50 yrd hail mary TD ?? with pitt secondary playing deep hahahaaha

[tga2848]

What a crock! As if no one would disagree with whether it was a fumble after watching the replay. Somehow the ball went foreward and yet it was not a foreward pass. That's interesting.

[dapwner666rs]

LOL Arizona fans just complain and have excuses because they didnt win.

Now i can't say anything about the call,(even though i thought it was right)but i know for a FACT the NFL, yes professinal NFL referees know how to call a penalty better than anyone on Youtube.

So no reason in wasting your time bitching about a call because you guys lost the only superbowl you've ever been to.

[bigphillip25]

Wow, your a dumbshit. Do your research. They have been to two. One when in chicago, and one XLIII

[UGLYSTIKCOLIN]

Mike pereira is a lying sack of shit who defends every bad call his referees make.

[pjc858]

Can you really say "ignorant fans"? After all, I wonder how many people in the valley knew there was a team in Arizona before they made it to the super bowl

[135789]

If a "fan" didn't even know that there was team in Arizona before the Super Bowl, they are ignorant anyway.

[steveericd1]

All u people do is complain on plays and missed calls ,just for thew sake of a argument it was an incomplete pass it would have been 4th down

[sodapo461]

I dont remember a ref coming out and saying they reviewd the play and it was ruled a fumble. If they did I guess I have memory loss.

[rofltruck]

bullshit!! incomplete pass and everyone knows it

[mikemilonesays]

I am not a Cardinals fan, I am not a Pats fan, I actually like the Steelers more than I like the Cardinals, but I think they NFL botched this one big time. WAY too close not to have an official look at it.

How exciting a jump ball to Fitzgerald would have been!

[Rigorserpent]

Pulled from the NFL Rule Book

"When a Team A player is holding the ball to pass it forward, any intentional movement forward of his hand starts a forward pass"

OBVIOUS forward pass, hell the ball even went forward about 5 yards.

Need to take these damn refs out the game, we need something better.....dont know what....but something better.

Ray Charles could see thats a forward pass, they handed the game to the Stealers.....yea I know how I spelled it, I stick by it.

[QuaillMan]

He wasn't technically holding it when the forward movement of his hand started. As the video said, he had partially lost control by then and had fumbled it the moment he lost full control. Just because he was able to propel the ball forward didn't mean that he still had possession.

[mljordan123]

your mom needs to shave her back, this is really frustrating and upsetting, please tell her, so I can be a little bit happy.

[earthpart3]

Such RAAAGE from a 5 year old!

[earthpart3]

That's why you spend your life on youtube bitching like a little faggot. shut the fuck up

[earthpart3]

REFZ WIN DA GAMEZ!!

[earthpart3]

o lookie another crybaby pussy on youtube. shocking!

[doriansand]

Defense wins games.....just not the cardinal's defense.

[wtf4real123]

Of course they are going to say the call on the field was correct when they fucked up and didn't review it during the game. I don't give a shit if it was a fumble, It should've been reviewed WTF

[mljordan123]

your dad loves the cock, period.

[Kryer98]

It was reviewed. Weren't you paying attention?

[beep1423]

Did you even watch the game, or are u just ignorant? If the booth reviews the play..they stop the game and look it over. If you are watching at home you would know..because it says BOOTH REVIEW. They are making excuxes for their mistakes.

[Kryer98]

In other words, you weren't paying attention.

[bigphillip25]

Kryer98 you probably didn't even watch the fucking game. IT WAS NOT REVIEWED AT ALL.

[Kryer98]

Yes it was, no matter how badly you don't want it to be true.

[MattyVfromCT]

the booth reviewed it upstairs while the referee was calling the penalty for james farrior removing his helmet. ironic that he would call a penalty for removing the helmet on farrior yet warner removed his helmet on multiple occasions and no penalty was called considering the refs "gave us every call" (SARCASM). al michaels said during the broadcast that it was confirmed that it was a fumble by the replay official in the booth right before the steelers took a knee to end the game.

[sodapo461]

Yeah I know really I was watching the game like oh they will review oh nevermind dont think ive ever been so pissed not that the steelers won just the fact that they didnt review it.

[earthpart3]

cause of refs. everyone knows this.

[pacmantab]

The booth officials are NOT going to send a play down out of desperation like a head coach would have. If he had been able to, Whisenhunt would have definately thrown a challenge flag....as any coach would have....because you KNOW the game is over if the call stands - so you hope against hope it gets overturned....even if you KNOW it won't be.

But the only way the call gets sent down is IF the booth official isn't sure. That's the rule. He got time to review it and confirmed the call...

[earthpart3]

cards > stealers

[earthpart3]

Typical stealer logic. Who cares if we cheated? Get over it, it's still in win in our book.

[mattryanownz]

slack jawed moron nice ou petty steelers fans r obbssessd with them getting no calls in their favour if this were the cardinaks getting all the calls then u wuld be giving a load of CRAP TO EVERYONE ELSE SO SHUT THE HECK UP!!

[mattryanownz]

cuz he saw the whole game and new that the refs wouldnt do CRAP about it

[mattryanownz]

SCREW MIKE PERERA HE ALWAYS DEFENS HIS REFS AND LIES IM GETTING SIK OF U GAY STEELERS GET OVER IT U GOT A SITH TROPHY ALMOST ALL BY CHEATING!! wOO HOO

[glealblood]

how is it by cheating fag we had way more costly plays and penalties go against us like the rothlisberger td in the first quarter he passed the line and the bs holding penalty that gave us a safety .. that is definetly a fumble

[bus2314]

boo hoo card fans still crying get over it .i know why cards fans keep cry cause that was probly the only chance the cards will ever get to a superbowl.boo hoo!

[spartan9199]

LOL @ Steelers fans. Another tainted title that they have to justify to the world forever. It was a forward pass. His arm was going forward, that's it. Steelers fans play experts and talk about ball control? What are you? Referees?

[Bigbadben7]

Keep Dreamin' Bitch!

Yes his arm went forward but he did not have TOTAL Control of th ball due to the contact, listen to the VP again.

How much were the refs on our side when they flaged us for a safety after the ball was released and the DT would have never had enough time to get to Ben and Ben sealed the game with a first down pass to Holmes?

Teh centers hands were inside the frame of the body of the DT but he got ran over.

Then they call holding on the first play of Pitt's final drive.

[dez0923]

Cry more.

Six. Eat it.

[mattryanownz]

eat what

[daferocious1]

I completely agree with you! I am a Seahawks fan and I will NEVER FORGET how the Stealers and the Refs "won" XL. This is another stolen title, given to them by the Refs and they will always use that argument about stop crying. I want to see what you guys will do when/if a Super Bowl is ever stolen from you. Hopefully Ben has a career ending injury next season so he doesn't go on to be in the HoF because the refs are sure setting him up to be a HoF QB.

[kindguy420]

1. i never said warner didnt fumble, i said the play needed to be looked at on the field. the play was important enough and close enough to warrant a review.2. the guy who ran into the kicker was tripped by an offensive lineman(thats a fact, not an opinion.check the tape) therefore a blown call. 3. you really dont get it do you? you said nothing new or intelligent in your last post so this is a waste of my time.kinda like you're a waste of skin. take it easy dumba**

[kindguy420]

and these are a few of the facts. just because you dont like what i said doesnt mean you can change the definitions of "fact" and "opinion". take away the fact that you a steelers fan and look at this like a football fan. the last play needed to be reviewed and the steelers came out on the better end of some blown calls. if you dont have anything intelligent to say or anything new to say then pls dont reply, you're starting to sound like a child.

[kindguy420]

now your the one who doesnt know what he's talking about. a blown call is not a matter of opinion. these are just a few of the FACTS that led to my OPINION and i'm sure if you just use your head you can understand the difference. block in the back on harrisons interception return, the bogus holding call that led to arizonas safety, facemask call that should have been offsetting penalties but gave steelers a first down, runing into the holder(that one had not been called all year in any other gam

[kindguy420]

what happened in the game(the missed calls and blown calls both ways are the facts) led me to my opinion that the steelers got the advantage because of the blown calls. i know you arent that bright but you can read this as slow as you want, as many times as you want until you understand it.

[kindguy420]

now take a moment to see if you can understand, my opinion is based on the facts from the game. if you need a tutor on basic comprehension i'm available if you're willing to pop your grey matter out of your brown hole.

[kindguy420]

stating a fact isnt complaining. just because you arent bright enough to get the difference isn't my fault.

[kindguy420]

never said the steelers didnt get screwed either, but if you watched the game the steelers came out on the better end of the blown calls. thats a fact of sports, dont get on me for pointing it out. the play needed to be reviewed. and i'm not ******* about them getting jobbed you noob, just stating a fact.

[kindguy420]

dont care either way because i dont like either team, but this play should have stopped the game for a full review and i saw at least 4 other calls that went the steelers way that in MY opinion gave them the game.

[spectrum7virkeytroni]

Best case scenario, Warner would have gotten one more Hail Mary throw. And Hail Marys tend to be about one in a hundred shots.

So statistically speaking, it wouldn't have mattered either way.

[mattryanownz]

did u c the fitzgerald hail mairy 2 years ago against the 49ers rite b4 halftime he was covered by 6 guys and he scored a touchdown! they could easily have one

[spectrum7virkeytroni]

Yes. They absolutely COULD have. But even the Cardinals miss many, many, many, many more hail marys than they convert on. So all I'm saying is that it's very unlikely that they would have converted on one random attempt. That's all.

[bigphillip25]

Maybe, but Fitz gots leap so....

[IamJMoney12]

666th view!

[DestructableMe]

Well as we all know there were no other calls made during the game that were wrong, so why would the last play of the game possible be wrong!

oh wait...

[fretworx]

Fumble or not, it was over. You had 59min and 45sec to score all the points you wanted, but couldn't get it done. In the end, you see the reason one team in the NFL has 6 rings. They write the book on Pro Football.

[InUse99]

Thank You

[leaf1300]

@fretworx

This is football... anything can happen... look at this past year: desean punt return, garrard hail mary... 6 sec. left for one last throw, anything can happen... And you cant really see it from the view they have it, but he never lost control of the ball until his hand was moving forward: "Forward pass"

[Shup2the]

This is a very unbiased account of that play, an NFL Exec..I'm surprised he didn't say that the last play of the biggest game of the year was a totally botched call and potentially changed the outcome of the game! (hint: sarcasm)

[oldiesgreaser]

its funny how that vp is a steelers fan

[Bigbadben7]

Kiss the 6 Rings!

[kitkatsyay]

so it was a fumble right?!?!?!?

[wh1teflower]

didnt you see his fingers push the ball forward that makes it not a fumble

[Bigbadben7]

Wrong, his fingers only puched it forward after he lost control of the ball and it was rolling in his hand.

Just becasue the arm moves forwad while the ball is on his hand does not make it an incomplete pass if it has left his grip.

[wh1teflower]

his fingers puched it forward, which makes it a forward pass, its a fumble

[Bigbadben7]

It's amazing how some fans think they know the rule book better than the Head official in al of football.

He loses his grip of the ball from Woodly's hand before his fingers do anything.

In order for it to be an incomplete pass he must have full control of the ball while his arm is moving forward.

Are you saying the VP is lieing when all you have to do is check the rule book?

[Bigbadben7]

You can actually see the ball rolling in his hand loose from his previous grip.

[tg101393]

I just love the arrogance of some fans to think they know more about the rules then the VP of the refs, the Commish, the refs themselves, and even the Cardinals organization. Despite what all those reliable and unbiased sources say about the game some poeple just beleive they know more. ARROGANCE!

[er1ck190]

ooHhh man thanks this is so much prooff to those cardinal haterz dat dont watch espn or those who live in denial about the fumble Lol
