You then wait until he's down and pushed behind the line to call a TD? I believe he got the call right, but had the wrong intentions. You have a clear view of that play, rule it down outside the goal line, to only then deciede after you get to your spot rule that it's a TD, sorry I ain't buying it!

thats exactly how i feel about it. i'm not so upset about the replay not overturning the call on the field, i'm more upset in the way the line judge handled it. OFFISS did a perfect job of describing it.
