[QUOTE="die_mole, post: 866618, member: 73648"] The inconsistency is very annoying. After I saw that Walsh clip I went and rewatched the lions clip. That time it seemed like Owens had less time to react than what I remembered from watching the game live. I do think that based on precedent both times were wrong, but i think penalizing players in these situations is harsh. The mantra is supposed to be clear and obvious. I don't think that it in those two cases that it was clear and obvious that the players could avoid getting touched by the ball. When I watched it live i thought 100% it was a penalty and that's how I call it when I officiate it. But man these are tough calls. [/QUOTE]
