In your opinion, what is the worst call in NFL history?

Question

I would have to say the interception by Troy Polumalu in the 2005-2006 NFL season during the playoffs. Its like they wanted the Colts to win that game.

The "Tuck Rule Game" is a close second

Answer 1

not a raiders fan or pats fan but the tuck rule game is the most controversal close to the music city miracle : [

Answer 2

It's not a call, but it's one of the worst decisions in NFL history >.<

The Packers trying to keep Favre, but putting him at back-up.

"Trying to protect his legacy" by throwing him at back-up? How does that help at all?

The Jets were at least smart enough to take a quarterback as talented as Favre.

Answer 3

I agree with you on the interception. As far as the tuck rule .It was not a bad call. It was the right call. What it is is a stupid rule.

Answer 4

I'd say the Tuck Rule was the worst call in NFL history. Even Tom Shady at the interview afterwards said 'Hey, they're the refs and they made the call' with that smug look on his flat face. I'm a DIE HARD Eagles fan, so don't go charging me as a Raider fan, but ANYONE could see that was a fumble. They started winning their championships by cheating, and just continued along that 'proud' tradition.

Answer 5

"Tuck rule game" for sure.

It was an obvious fumble.

That call was complete garbage.

Answer 6

Well the Tuck Rule game had more impact on league history.

The Steelers went on to win that interception game anyway, and while it was a bogus call, it really didnt change the outcome of the game.

The Tuck rule game though, that was huge. The Pats went on to win the game, win the Super Bowl, then emerge as the NFL's premier organization of the 2000's and became a dynasty. Had that Tuck Rule went the Raider's way, who knows what would have happened?

Answer 7

music city miracle   i lost money  on that ***** call

Answer 8

the worst call was a playoff game between the giants and SF 49ers

i dont remember the year but i remember the worst call was called on the last QT

Answer 9

The Polamalu call was ridiculous. I mean, it is quite rare whenever the NFL admits that a call was a mistake.

But I think one of the worst I have ever seen was last year, in the Pats-Colts regular season game (dubbed Super Bowl XLI 1/2). Colts WR Reggie Wayne tackled Pats safety Rodney Harrison, stopped him from getting an easy interception of Manning. Wayne wasn't even looking at the ball. Even a blind man could see that was offensive pass interference. Not only did they not call interference on Wayne, they had the nerve to call it on Harrison, and give the colts awesome field position for free.

Actually, that basically happened twice in that game
