Alright, so it does look like I moved it down to 50 (for some reason I can't recall) at some point before the beginning of this season. The 57 yarder was an end of half kick, which makes sense as my slider is set to 65 for that situation. It's possible I got confused about which league I was adjusting the slider for. Talk about self-sabotage! *sighs*

Brutal way to lose but at least you figured it out. I'm thinking the local media is calling for your head coaches head right about now

The Tuck Rule still ticks me off 20 years later. Brady fumbled.

100% agree...I remember watching that game with no skin in the game either way...I was shocked when it wasn't called a fumble.

I have watched football seriously since I was 9-10 years old which is 78-79. I never once before that game heard about the stupid tuck rule.

Total BS in my opinion and I'm in no way a Raider fan but right is right!!!

Tuck Rule has to be the worst officiating call in NFL history. I can think of others, but the implications of the that call make it the worst for me.

I had heard about it. I saw a game where it was called in Marino's favor. He was trying to fake spike and the ball slipped out as he was bringing the ball back up and they used the Tuck Rule to let him keep the ball.

That being said, the rule basically legalizes fumbling as it was written, and is why it's no longer an actual rule.

Not gonna rehash the game, and while most point to the Tuck Rule as why the Raiders lost, a lot of the blame falls on Gruden and his bad coaching. Raiders had a 3rd and 1 late in the game when a 1st down basically wins the game. Gruden called a stretch run in the snow rather than just plow into the line. I also remember Gruden's clock management pissed me off.

Tuck Rule never should have happened but screw Gruden too.
