Ahmad Bradshaw steals the fumble recovery away from the Patriots
defense.
Akshully, by all rights that should have been Patriots ball. The
Patriot defender had the ball ON THE GROUND and as soon as he was
touched by Bradshaw, the play should have been called dead.
Should have been Pats ball, but wasn't. BIG turnaround.
Anything can happen in the pile. So it goes.
"So it goes." is a strange way of expressing "Yes, the NFL needs to fix
that nonsense before it very obviously changes a game completely."
The Patriots might have won if that call went properly, though it's hard
to say for sure. Perhaps the Competition Committee can fix that one.
How do you fix calling the American football equivalent of a scrum?
It's up for grabs at that point and unless you've conclusively got
posession, you don't really have anything.
It's just an aspect (and unwritten "rule") of the game, and has been
since basically forever.
You'd do it with replay... did the guy have possession and get touched
before it became a scrum? That would be the test. Have to be
comclusive, though.
