Quote:Cincinnati's RB appeared to be tripped in the back field by a diving Colts defender which caused him to stumble and fall and then bounce into the endzone. It looked questionable, but honestly, from what I remember, it wasn't clear evidence that the defender touched him. You saw a dive and then the hand swipe but I saw no contact, although there could have been, the camera angle didnt appear to show any 
 

 


The call on the field trumps anything other than 100% positive proof. The call was reversed without 100% definitive proof. Per the NFL rules, the ball should have been a change of possession on downs. It should have been Colts ball, but Triplette reversed the call without it being confirmed per the rules.

 

Meh, people are falible, we all screw something up. Triplette is known for a few screw ups, so am I. :wacko: , but he should have known the rule is about seeing absolute proof of confirmation when reversing a call on the field. I have no idea what happened, and I am sure he will have to answer to someone above him like the rest of us.
