Bucs Got A Break

December 10th, 2009

A play that was overruled in the Bucs favor to award Antonio Bryant a catch should never have happened.

Each week, the NFL Network — what, you don’t have the NFL Network? Then you are not a man — has a segment where NFL vice president of officiating Mike Pereira discusses with NFL Network host Rich Eisen some of the more controversial calls of the week.

Often Pereira breaks down why or why not a specific call was made.

The Bucs — no strangers to getting hosed by the zebras — got a break last week, Pereira said.

A catch by Antonio Bryant was initially called incomplete but Raheem the Dream challenged it, and the call was overturned in the Bucs’ favor.

In this video, Pereira explains how the call should not have been reversed.

    That was a heck of a catch which is why I think they should keep him. I can remember no other WR the Bucs have had that could make a catch like that consistently other than Bryant.

    It was however a bad call. It’s nice when they do bounce our way though 😀

    This Pereira guy has no consistency. That Bryant catch wasn’t as blatantly wrong as the Clayton catch.

    I said it before, he’s just a talking head that fills in time between games.

    YEA Browns!
