Titans Get Totally Ripped Off

The Ravens beat the Titans 13-10. Yeah Right. With 7:39 to go in the game, Joe Flacco stepped out of the endzone. He pulled an Orlovsky. "I don't think I was out," Flacco added. "The only place I saw it was on the big screen and it's not really zoomed in there." "I wasn't out because they didn't call it." Check out the Video

Joe knew he was out but Terry McAulay never saw it. The score would have been 12-10 Titans and the Titans would have gotten the ball back. Flacco is out. And CBS totally dropped the ball. They never even spoke about it and never showed a replay. What probably happened was they replayed it in the booth and confirmed the total mess up by McAulay and ever since the Hochuli fiasco the NFL asked the networks to not show these things. Then ESPN comes on the next day because there is so much negative discussion and tries to put this story to bed by showing their NFL Axis video but they never show the whole play. Why? because they know its a mess up by McAulay.

The worst part about the whole thing? Jeff Fisher didn't even care. He owes much more to the Titan fans than that crappy attitude.

This is what Fisher said after the game: "We didn’t get a view or a look or anything." Thats it. Dude, this is your season. All that hard work for a 13-3 season wasted. Fisher is co-chairman of the NFL's Competition Committee so he probably had to eat it a little but come on man!

And I haven't even gotten into the whole delay of game rip-off.
