Default Did anybody notice

On the raiders touchdown yesterday where McCown scrambled and found Porter in the endzone, that he had stepped across the line of scrimmage before he threw it? I noticed it live and was screaming to challenge it. In my opinion, this is just another example of the coaches not having their heads in the game. How does nobody notice that?

The Raiders outplayed us. Sucks but it happened and will probably happen again. Not sure exactly what the rule is but did we do anything on D that would make you think that we could of held after as "illegal forward pass" penalty?

Yeah, I noticed that too. I thought Shanahan would throw a flag, but I doubt it would have mattered with our defense making Justin Fargas look like Walter Payton.

I missed the game, but saw the replay of that play only once. My first thought was that he was over the line. But from the way it looked, his foot was over the line, but the ball was not. The QB can step over the line, but as long as the ball is behind the line when he releases it, it is a legal pass. Judging from the one time I saw the play, it looked legal.

I watched it 3 times and it was very close. It looked like he stepped on the line during the game but, when you slow it looks like he released the ball slightly before going over the line...

Ball lands behind them in the upper deck.

Indian fan #1 "Ya the angle of the ball... was too high.. if you look..

Fans argue over it being too high

Here's what I noticed:

1. Henry fumbled twice. (I have yet to see anyone here mention it.)

2. Lepsis caused a stupid off sides penalty -- and on the next play got blown away blocking. This led to an Oakland sack of Cutler and killed a Denver drive -- leading to a FG instead of a TD.

Then Lepsis did it again -- caused another sack on another deep drive -- also leading to a FG instead of a TD.

Obviously Denver has serious problems on the OL as well as our D

I tried to mention our lack of killer instinct and how we give teams second chances several weeks ago after the Tennesee win and was called a drama queen and told to enjoy the win and quit b****n. We'll now I hope every understands what I'm talking about. Stupid plays on special teams cost us the win last week and just plain playing stupid(in addition to the above post, the penalty on Foxworth that kept an Oakland drive alive after we had stopped them on third down. I guess this is how it feels. I've marveled other years how teams we played continually beat themselves by making stupid mistakes over and over to kill their own drives and keep the other teams drives alive. Now I have to sit and watch us do the same thing. Its very sickening and disheartening. Belive me there is enough blame to go around for all 53 players on the squad and complete coaching staff. I've been a Bronco fan for 35 years and I don't think I can recall a Bronco team that is so bent on self destructing as this one. If anyone can recall one please give me your opinion.
