  • FUCK U WILLIAM GAY!!! U SUCK!!! U LOST DA FUCKING GAME!!!

  • big respect for sanchez who showed a lot of heart playing with an injury in his throwing arm and not quiting

  • was this recorded with a potato pointed at an apple?

  • @thejoamiq - As Senator Franken would say: You're entitled to your own opinion, but you're not entitled to your own facts.

    The tuck rule would only apply when there is intent shown that the passer is "tucking" the ball back to his torso. That was what Brady was doing that fateful day when we first heard of this rule. In Sanchez's case, he was - by your own admission - pump faking...which is NOT the same. Add to the fact that he RE-cocked his arm to throw negates tuck rule. Next....

  • @pacmantab Nope. Empty hand rule is excluded because he had already pump faked before the ball came free. When he brought the ball back after faking the throw, that started the application of the tuck rule.

  • @thejoamiq, this doesn't fall under the "tuck rule." It falls under the "empty hand" rule. The SAME thing happened to Roethlisberger the week before...which led to a Ravens TD...which REALLY makes me unsympathetic to your cause.

    It may be a crap rule...but its a rule. And the refs got this one right. Sorry....

  • @thejoamiq And you fail to understand that the the arm motion is only a part of the definition of a forward pass. The flight of the ball, upon release, must be toward the opponent's endline. Here it is not. The flight still needs to go forward, this why it isn't an incomplete pass here because, by definition, it does not fulfill all the requirements, tuck rule or not. Tuck rule applies to the impetus of the flight but it must still go forward to become an incomplete pass.

  • @lem4037 I'm going to stop responding because you fail to realize the very point of the tuck rule, which is that it is still called a forward pass even if the arm is moving backward after a forward motion. That is why the rule is so controversial - you actually DON'T have to be attempting a forward pass when the ball is knocked out for it to be called a forward pass. And there is no such thing as a "forward tucking motion".

  • @thejoamiq In order for it to be an incomplete pass(a forward pass which flight is ended by striking the ground or lands outside the field of play), it must first fall under the definition of a forward pass. I have read the rule and it states, repeatedly, the passer must be motioning the ball FOWARD. In the video, when Sanchez is hit, his arm is going backwards (not forwards or in a forward TUCKING motion). Regardless, for it to be incomplete, it must first be a forward pass by defintion.

  • @lem4037 Re-read the tuck rule. It says absolutely nothing about the direction in which the ball was lost. It's irrelevant.
