Look at this gif again and just try telling me that #59 didn't BUMP INTO #88 in the process of starting to wrap his arms around Gronk.

Greenday @ 19/11/2013 12:04 I just watched it again and there is NO FUCKING WAY that shit was "uncatchable." The bearhug started RIGHT. NEXT. to the defender who intercepted the ball. Bullshit call, bullshit ending. Ball was intercepted at the same time the holding or w/e was in the process of occurring.

But the holding/PI occured before the interception. Gronk tries to attack the ball and is going to where the ball is landing. 59 is pushing Gronk's upper body away from the ball. That's why Gronk is falling backwards.

Gronk bumping into #88 is what I meant to say but cbf to hit edit.

ESPN had a replay that marked the spot where Gronk started to be held and the spot where the ball was intercepted and they were not even like a foot apart.

lol

Whining isn't going to change the result

You know what's great? Giants won 4 in a row and are back in contention for the NFC Least title :)

Except the Eagles will still win the division. Or even if the Giants make it they are a super flawed team. They will be out first round. Saints or Seahawks will take care of them for sure.

If the Seahawks get home field, it's over.

I have no anticipation that the Giants do anything substantial the rest of the year. Just funny how they started 0-6 and are only 1.5 games out of first place.

I recognize this is totes late. But it was catchable, according to sports science's analysis.

The Pats could've done more to win the game. Like the fumble Ridley lost. But your argument discredits the potential for a victory.
This specific play didn't stop them from winning, but they were robbed if a chance to comeback and win it.

Sports Science knows it's stuff. Any argument against catch ability is now thwarted.
