It absolutely kills me that these patriot fans go running home to the CHFF web site to look for answers. Every Patriot fans apologie err excuse you read anywhere on any board is taken right out of the CHFF handbook. Many Patriot fans have asked the CHFF web site to do a video analysis and show how the Rams got away with the same type of play in an effort to debunk our videos at stlouisrams.net. They have asked CHFF to do an article debunking the videos at stlouisrams.net.
Big surprise, instead of setting these misguided dot fans straight and telling them that there is no video to support what they are asking CHFF to do they say; "Were not interested in breaking down a game that is 4 years old." However when he decides to rip Skip Bayless (who left himself wide open to be bombarded) he breaks down games from the early 1980's.
Anyway CHFF has been self anointed as the web site that discovered the "Vicious head slap" to Brady during the tuck play. On the surface this may look like a heroic discovery and while Patriot fans dance to inclination that the Raiders would have gotten away with a vicious head slap, isn't it true that if it had to be discovered days or weeks later that it wasn't much of a slap to the head? While they call it a vicious slap to the head they ignore the fact that Woodson came within inches of the football. Yet ask one of them about the slap to Warner's face mask and they say Oh that little tap. Its sickening how spoiled these post season NFL welfare recipients will go.
Just for fun Let's play along with this rule that has cemented the CHFF web site into Patriot fan lore.
Quote:
Rule 3 (“Definitions”), Section 21 (“Pass and Passer”), Article 2, Note 2 of the NFL Rule Book:
"When a Team A player is holding the ball to pass it forward, any intentional forward movement of his hand starts a forward pass, even if the player loses possession of the ball as he is attempting to tuck it back toward his body. Also, if a player has tucked the ball into his body and then loses possession, it is a fumble."

The last I checked the hand was part of the body. If the hand is part of the body then Brady has finished tucking the football away and it is a fumble.
