Replay in Chargers / Titans Game

Is anyone else as upset as I am about the Chambers catch that was reviewed in the last drive of the SD/Tenn game? Why did we only have two freaking angles of the catch? I think everyone involved knew that it wasn't a catch.

Check this out from the press conference today:

WR CHRIS CHAMBERS

(on making the catch on fourth down)

I turned around and the ball was really low and I knew had a shot to make a play on it. It was actually similar to a play I made in Minnesota, where I had to slide first and tried to get under the ball. In that game it got turned around for the other team. Luckily, there wasn’t enough evidence to reverse the call. I made sure the ball was in my arms when I got up.

(on if he was certain he had caught the ball)

Under the circumstances of playing away, I was unsure at first. Once I saw the few camera angles, I felt comfortable that the play would stand.


If he is ruled to have dropped it - game over.

I guess I wanted to vent - but also see if anyone else noticed this? How it is even possible that a televised HD NFL game only has endzone angles going for the play? What about the damn sideline angle we watch the WHOLE game from? Where was that angle?

Ugh.

I just have never seen a replay with only 2 camera angles- both from the endzone. Bizarre. Had a big, big play for me on that one.
