Flag was thrown on a phantom "hold" because Fuente showed up the ref's on the blown 'helmet to helmet' call. And it is also why the fumble that did not happen was not reversed. The ref knew he was wrong and his buddies protected him.

Oh, please. Smdh.

Enough already. The call was bad. The failure to make a stop on 4th and 10 was the catalyst to that loss, though. Our guys played their hearts out and I couldn't be more proud to be a Tiger, but the 68 other threads we have about the call is enough.

I don't think the lead ref threw that flag. And he didn't look too happy with the ref that did throw the flag.

Then he should have done a ******* thing to overturn it

That was the catalyst to a tie game. Considering the drive we put together after the phantom hold on Craig's amazing return, it's not a stretch to imagine we could have gotten into Elliott's range (since that seemingly only requires reaching the 40). Pa-thet-ic.

That's not how officiating crews work...

The field judge threw the flag from the other end of the field at the point of the kick off!

He's 100% correct.

Oh you know what I meant. At least talk with him about it

Fuente called him a dumb ************ in full view of the jumbotron.

Among other things. The other refs took offense at it. Protecting his back. Obvious.
