wuz we robbed?
looks to me like stephen davis was stopped short of the goal line and fumbled at the end of the 'skins/panthers games.

i mean, why bother with instant replay reviews if the refs are going to ignore video evidence.

not really whining here, i know my 'skins are going nowhere this year, but was interested in what anyone who saw this thought?

1. the review didn't supply irrefutable evidence

that he didn't get in. And if they said he was down at the goal line, who's to say the Panthers, who would have had 3rd and goal, wouldn't have scored on their next two possessions?

The refs didn't lose the game for the skins, fumbling on the opponent's goal line played a pretty big role though.

The review was to see if Davis got in, so even if they said he didn't get in and fumbled the skins wouldn't have gotten the ball since that wasn't under review.

2. he was stopped
no way did he get in. But because the whistle blew, it would have been 3rd down.

I blame the Redskins who once again failed to convert early turnovers into points. Their redzone offense is horrible
