Is anyone watching the steelers/browns?

Ok first of all they just showed the chains coming out on after a sneak by big ben on 4th and 1.. they were clearly short by 2 or 3 inches and they gave the steelers a 1st down. Thats the worst fuking call i have ever seen. And you tell me refs dont fix games. he was short by 3 inches. chains came out and they showed it on tv he was short. it was bull crap. everyone of these refs should be fired. I actually have the over in a parlay but am i big browns fan and im fuking irate right now. please tell me some of you saw this play.

Well they reviewed and overturned Big Ben's td pass a few minutes later right? So maybe a reverse fix? lol

I didn't see the actual play though

well i dont know if they can review it. it was 4th and 1..rothlisberger sneaks and they actually got a nice spot but he was still short. brought the chains out and clearly he was short with the chains extended by 2 or 3 inches. they showed on instant replay 5 times or so and even the announcers cant believe how bad it was.. it led to a steeler fg so there up 10 at half. its just bs man..seriously.. and yeah the only ones watching this game are probably browns or steelers fan

Yeah I saw that BS too. That is one of the worst calls I have ever seen in pro sports. If they cannot make good judgements out there, they should not be refs. Unbelievable!

Browns should have called a timeout, asked to remeasure the ball, then ask refs to explain why it wasn't a first down, and how much they got on the game.

Look at the bright side you didn't have to see Derek Anderson come out onto the field.

you mean we didnt have to see the browns receivers come out on the field. cause they can not catch anything and it makes anderson look bad when he actually has thrown the ball well the last 2 weeks and not one guy on their team can catch. its disgusting
