Speaking of which, there was a ridiculous call by the refs. Manning, in a practical sense, was beyond the line scrimmage when he passed the ball. The initial call was illegal forward pass. The right call. The Giants, however, challenged the call and won.
The rule states the passer's entire body must be past the line of scrimmage when the ball is released. The officials ruled that Manning's right heel was even with the line of scrimmage, despite the rest of his body clearly beyond the line of scrimmage. Practical meaning anyone, Anyone? No? Then, how about a split hair? You can't make this up
