The refs missed Harris getting his face mask ripped off so that they missed the OPI is not some huge shock. Exactly. Implying CFL refs don’t miss obvious infractions is ridiculous. And you don’t need to look far to prove it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17to85 Posted July 6, 2019 Report Share Posted July 6, 2019 yeah it was clearly a push off, I yelled at the TV about it when it happened. Only way it wasn't a push off is if the CFL and the refs want to let it go as they traditionally do. As for Dunigan talking about it, well he always sides with the offense on those things.

JuranBoldenRules Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Here’s the easiest way to judge OPI....if on the route the receiver is on he’s even with the DB for 10-20 or more yards and then all of a sudden the receiver has 3-4 yards of separation when the ball comes in he either pushed off or the DB fell on his face. Nobody has the agility to get that separation instantly with their stride. Nickthesizz, Rod Black, M.O.A.B. and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet from another angle, it wasn’t AS obvious, but by then O’Shea had thrown the challenge flag, and I felt more than 50% that review would show the push off...and it would be called. I like your idea. Pulling the fox40 out for next game for the family and dogs to enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomic Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Duke Williams became a star by exploiting CFL refs' unwillingness to call OPI. He definitely had plenty more egregious push-offs than Ottawa's on Friday. But IMO that was the CFL getting it wrong last season, and they finally got it right.

Replay made it glaringly obvious. CFL refs are godawful. Nickthesizz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, the offence already has a huge advantage why should they be allowed to push off as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "fox40"? This is some sort of whistley thing right? Just in case I checked urban dictionary. Pealess whistle it is. The Classic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
