It seemed like every time the cameras panned to him he was screaming his lungs out. Did anyone else catch that?

Paul Casey is just feeling the pressure.

I've been laughing inside at that idiot all day. I literally doubled my opponents score in FF today with players he bashed pre-draft and FA when I suggested the jags bring them in.

The one play, I really can't blame him at all. The call on the field on the Wallace deep ball was out of bounds by the guy right there. Some other ref changed the actual call on the field.

why was no red flag thrown for that bogus call

It was a catch. Really surprised he didn't challenge though.

Because it was not bogus. The call was correct. Gus Bradley thought about challenging and changed his mind after yelling at the official who ruled Mike Wallace was out of bounds.

Two weeks ago he would have challenged it. Putting the flag back in his pocket demonstrated he learned something about challenging plays at Tennessee.

J-dub is right, he is growing with the team. But it's funny how Bortles throws 2 pick sixes in one game and he is exempt from scrutiny and then Gus Bradley isn't. I love Bortles, but we can't blame Gus for his offense giving up 14 points for the other team

I don't think Blake Bortles is exempt from scrutiny. The difference is he played in only five games, so we all understand his interceptions are rookie mistakes and are more forgiving. Gus Bradley never coached a whole team before coming to Jacksonville, but got the Jaguars job last year. Impatient fans overestimate how much a head coach learns during his first two seasons.

Well on the Bortles scramble fumble it looked clear as day that Shorts fell on the ball. Then somehow we didn't get it. I know he was yelling at the ref about that because I heard it through his mic.

I think that was because they didn't even stop to look at it

Yeah, the commentators said something like "one knee = two feet"

 

I don't think that makes sense, but whatever.

Has to do with being touched with a knee down, you are down by contact.  Same general idea.  He got a foot and a knee down before he went out of bounds anyway, so it really doesn't matter too much.

Ultimately it probably didn't matter. Even so, I read the rule on completed passes on the NFL site but still can't understand that particular call.

NFL 101: The ground cannot cause a fumble. So when the ball hit the ground, the play was over and it did not matter what happened next.

Andrew Catalon said former referee Mike Carey told him "one knee equals two feet." That means when the player is down with one knee on green but one foot OOB, it is a catch.

This is why they should teach wide receivers to go to the ground knee-first to avoid this issue.
