Instant Reply Fails Titans For Second Week

The Tennessee Titans were once again let down by the lack of angles avaliable for instant replay for the second week and this week the titans were also let down by the fact the instant replay booth on the field was apparently frozen

now correct me if im wrong but this is the NFL right? not some random football team in the middle of Nowheresville that have a guy with a video camera as their replay guy. last week an important fourth down was given becuase apparently the ref could not see any distinctive angle that showed that the ball was lose when the reciever came down with it, which it was. that resulted in the titans losing the game.

this week were were let down TWICE, once on a play where Vince lateraled to LenDale White and he took it down to the 2 yard line that was said to be a forward pass and i was watching it online and could see the ball went back but apparently the ref didnt have the right angle to over turn it. and secondly a hold by Micheal Roos which negated an excellent TD by Bo Scaife, this could not be reviewed becuase the equipment was frozen and the screen was black...

now come on this is stupid, in one game we could have lost and in another we did, all becuase we were let down by a trusted piece of equipment and we could be in a more comfortable playoff position now...but we are not!!

if it wasnt for the bad judgment by the reffs in the titans and chargers game we would have won and we would hold the wildcard spot right now.

yup and the thing is i watched the game on CBS and it showed that as the guy cam down he did not have control of the ball until he fell on top of it, so if the commentators can see it how did the refs not be able to see it??

Re: Instant Reply Fails Titans For Second Week

its difficult not to feel like that sometimes isnt it titans#1? i mean how important was the Chargers game and that 4th down conversion? and luckily we won last week but how important would those 2 plays have been if we couldnt have reviewed them, now im not saying the NFL is out to get us but this video replay booth being frozen or what issue has not happened at a single game all season in the NFL or for as long as i can rememeber and when you do have the video replay why are there not more cameras there to assist the refs to make a fair decision?
'
i think its just ridiculous how our season is sinking down the toilet becuase the NFL cannot spring for some more cameras around the stadiums but are perfectly happy to fine every player for not wearing the right...shoes or something

Re: Instant Reply Fails Titans For Second Week

i really dont think i believe the whole frozen screen just yet because this is the nfl not high school football.but what can you do but move on and hope the reff's in the next game arent as bad.
