LoL. PI in the NFL is the dumbest shit in the world. No way he catches that even if he doesn't fall down.

Go directly to the Goal Line! Collect 7 Points.

Edit: Looking at that reply, Lloyd sold the shit out of that dive. Nicely done.

There's way too many PI calls in general, but it's hard to argue that one much. If you trip the receiver up you sort of have to call it.

Plenty of times if both defender and receiver are looking back for the ball and legs just get tangled there is no call, inadvertent contact.

Perfect example of where the college rule would be perfect. 15yd unintentional PI.

Not that I'm complaining because it lead to another Brady TD.

You see where that ball ended up? There's no fucking way he catches it anyways. That's why PI being an automatic spot foul is fucking pants on head retarded.

As a Patriots fan I can say the PI rules are retarded and need to be changed. That said this shit is not uncommon .

If there was some way to limit when it's a spot foul (because there are definitely times when I think it should be a spot foul when it breaks up an obvious catch that would be a big play in a game) that would be great, but anything you leave up to a judgement call is going to be fucked up plenty of times by the officials.

As opposed to it being fucked up on a judgment call now? College seems to be doing just fine with their rules.

I absolutely agree that is needs to be a 15 yard penalty at the most. It's gotten way too stupid the last few seasons.
