Worst Call In NFL Playoff History (49er's v.s. Giants)

[RhodyRum]

That was a bad call too. What it shows is how important being able to review calls is. If they had replay then that would have been ruled a TD almost 100% of the time.

I wish they could review everything

And it was that very same play that got the ball rolling on the NFL eventually using instant replay a few seasons later.

Based on the thread title I 100% was expecting this game…

This was just a crazy ass game

Ehh, the first defender had moved him back a half yd or so before the 2nd defender came in and knocked the ball out. He called forward progress quickly but that's not as bad as the Saints/Rams call by any means.

I thought this was gonna be about the early 2000s playoff game between the 49ers and Giants. THAT game was so for the Giants. In terms of 49ers/Giants playoff games I thought that game would be more memorable to someone who wasn't a fan of ethier team



I'm a Giants fan so I have no issue with the call in OP The call in OP isn't nearly as controversial as a Tuck rule game for example, most people probably forgot about the 2012 NFCCG

Tuck rule was correctly called by the letter of the law. Not a good rule, but it was correct.

I said noy including penalties or non-calls as that would obviously be right up there. I don't think that was even close to forward progress though..

As an aside the fact that high school kids are doing that clap fake read option (they ain’t reading shyt) is the reason we are in the QB predicament we are in today.

The fact this is Texas and nobody wound up dead after this call too lmao

What's crazy to me is that the receiver even thought he could pick up the ball and run after an obviously complete pass. Makes me think that he knew the officials were on the take or the officials had been blowing calls all game.

Giants are a terrible franchise. They got lucky.

Was watching this with some friends including one who is a huge Giants fan. He was all through the first half......

When got going and the Giants couldn't stop him and Garcia his attitude completely flipped

That's absurd

 

[Erratic415]

tried to forget about this

Same here. Those 2 NFC title game losses to the Giants (90 and 11) are painful.

I would trade this call for the lucky ones we got against the Giants (02) and Packers (Rice fumble in 98) any day.

Also, some of those non-holding calls in the first loss to KC. Particularly the 3rd and long to Tyreek

Could also be good team discipline... instilled to follow through and not stop until you hear whistle
