Prove it.

Whining? Scoreboard? I am not a fan of either team. I am completely neutral. I dont really care I just like to see fair games.
The video replay proves it. If the equipment wasnt broken, I would guarantee it would of been overturned. It was OBVIOUS that his elbow was down. |

I saw it again and since the ball was coming out (2 guys hands on the ball) it would depend at what point they would call it out of the receivers control. It wouldn't matter if his knee was down if he didn't have control of the ball. Right? |

you are correct, just as a player with a catch running out of bounds only counts when he actually gets control. |

No. His elbow OBVIOUSLY DID eventually hit the ground. I'll agree with that. But Champ done ripped the ball by then.

You wouldn't be a Kansas City Chief fan, would you? Benefitted by a Bronco loss and a conference having three teams at 1-1 and one team a game back of the lead instead of two? |

One of the angles they had clearly showed that the elbow was down and then the ball came out of his hands. They even froze it right at that point. It was as clear as day. He was down and then the ball came out. Hoculi would of overturned it. |

Sounds like someone needs a Whaaburger and a side of French Cries.

I hear what you're sayin' and I hear what the announcers were saying over and over and over and I saw the replays with my own eyes in 1080i HD TV and I think you and they are wrong. I would argue that Champ should have also got the touchdown right there.
I got so sick of hearing the play as being definitely a bad call that I found it to be poetic justice that the Broncos DID benefit from a bad call and give the Bolts something to 8!#ch about!
Scoreboard!

No, he didnt. The replay clearly showed that. Only a blindman or Broncos fan would say otherwise. Again, I am a neutral fan not being blinded by fandom.

First, the Chiefs would benefit from that because they will likely only win 2-3 games all season.
Secondly, I despise the Chiefs. |

You cant yell scoreboard when your team didnt earn the win. That's ridiculous.
The Broncos lost. An asterick has to be added to their win total now. |
