A phantom call?

The holding penalty that negated Ted Ginn Jr.'s kickoff return for a touchdown was so far behind the play that the CBS cameras never caught it. It was so questionable that, according to alleged culprit Greg Camarillo, even alleged victim Justin Jenkins didn't cry foul.

"I think it was a fair play," said Camarillo, signed for his special teams acumen. "I asked the guy after the game, and he didn't think it was a penalty either. But if the refs call it, then I'm guilty."

Stop whining. You lost.

These calls happen in EVERY NFL game... usually they go against us. Yesterday, it went against our opposition.

I'm not going to apologize... as we've had our fair hair of non-existent calls go against us.

The Bills deserved to lose this game but we didn't. It makes up for the Dallas game.

A win is a win no matter how bad.

Can you imagine the Bills without Lynch? He's probably won us 3 games single handedly.

Whoever wrote that clearly wasn't paying very close attention. "Behind the play." Bull. The penalty occurred IN FRONT OF THE PLAY, so much so, that the official in question could be seen on screen throwing the flag during the run back.

Now we just need one more win to make up for the Denver game!

Great post! I was thinking the exact same thing and was about to post it, but you beat me to it.

The "hold" occurred 15 yards away from Ginn. It was to the right and just behind. The official was in front of the play. I watched it several times on my DVR. Camarillo's left hand was barely on the outside of the opponent's right shoulder for a second. IMO, shouldn't have been called.

I guess when you're 0-9 you're gonna complain about tiny little nothings.

And the Bills should have had one more play at the end of the first half. And the Bills had the 1st down by a foot or more on JP's sneak that was nearly lost by a crappy spot.

The Dolphins should have won the game in several different ways. This is not a significant one.

Great points Dr. The Bills ahould of had a chance for the FG at the half there was 1 sec left on the clock. Now that was bull****.

???? A TD called back in a 3 point game is not significant? WTF?

I don't thinks the Fins should have won the game but the call was still bad.

"Nearly" lost a first down? Now that's funny.

And when the do, fans complain. It's the nature of the beast.

Re: A phantom call?

No, I mean bad calls by the referees are insignificant when one looks at plays like Booker having the dropsies (and Peele too).

Control what you can control and make the plays presented to you.
