I do. In case you forgot, here's a reminder.
The context of this play is as follows. It was ruled a TD on the field and no flags were thrown by any of the on field refs. It was NY who thought they saw something and overturned the TD. What they saw was Cook committing pass interference on the 2nd guy he made contact with in the middle of the EZ. What's weird is, how they missed hat 2nd guy jumping into the path of Cook as he tried to run his route. A receiver has a right to run his route doesn't he? Does it not look like the defender jumps in front of him? So why wasn't DPI called instead? Better yet, why wasn't it a no call since it didn't have much to do with the play?
The other part that grinds my gears about this play, is how only 3 TD's all year were overturned by NY due to OPI being missed on the field. The other 2 were on the Jets. That's if you want to count the Cook play as a missed OPI, which I don't. That's DPI if anything and even Blandino was baffled by the call at the time.
The other 2 were as follows, this one in week 1 on a busted play. 3rd quarter, Jets leading 8-0, 2nd and goal from the 5. I'm pretty sure the receiver thought Darnold was running so he tried to seal the edge. It was clearly a designed run, but alright Darnold messed up by throwing it. Jets would scored on the next play anyway.
And then this one in week 12, 1st quarter Raiders leading 3-0, 1st and goal from the 8. Looks like a standard pick play, but he's definitely guilty. TD doesn't happen without it, but how many times do we see this not get called in a season? And wow, 10 weeks since the last NY intervention?
That's all fine and dandy, but then how did NY miss one this obvious in week 7 (I'll let you guess)? Watch the WR/corner at the top of the screen. You could have called any number of penalties on this play, OPI, holding, pick, you name it. I mean it's right there in the wide open for everyone to see. The receiver is clearly not trying to run a route there.
All these other ones were in traffic and easy to miss, but eagle eye NY caught those. To be fair, maybe they missed a ton more, but I didn't quite find the time to review all 797 passing TD's this year.
I waited all year because I wanted to see how consistent NY would be on something like this. Everyone already knew how officials were refusing to overturn any kind of pass interference all year on challenges made by coaches, no matter how obvious they were, so what makes these plays any different? What gave NY the right to overturn them on their own when they weren't even called on the field or challenged by coaches?
For the record, on 74 coaches challenges were PI was missed, only 21 were reversed into PI. On 27 challenges were PI was called, only 3 were reversed out of PI (all offensive).
