Was there a football game or something yesterday?

No, but there WAS a shift in the space-time continuum.

Hell yeah! That was right up there with the famed "Hail Mary" play.

10 years ago, it would have been called back because Eli was "in the grasp". Thank [insert favorite deity] the NFL came to its senses.

You've got that right, Thomas. I saw yesterday some folks commenting (maybe it was on SI?) how glad they were that the refs were fairly uninvolved in the game, aside from the few obvious penalties.

Although I am still puzzled by Belicheck getting to call the 12 men on the field penalty; I thought the review bit was only for penalties that had been called, not ones that hadn't?
