You’ve got to be kidding me: the biggest blown calls of all time


[post_page_title]The Tuck Rule[/post_page_title]
If you’re a football fan, odds are you’ve heard this story before. It was a cold day in New England, snow covers the field as the Patriots and Raiders meet for a chance to head to the AFC Championship game. Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is in the pocket, looking for an open receiver, with nowhere to throw the ball. The Oakland Raiders’ Charles Wooden comes at Brady from the blind side, hitting the ball loose right in the middle of a Brady pump fake. Another Oakland player gains possession of the ball. Game over right? Nope! The fumble was overturned after a review and here was born the Tuck Rule. With a new breath of life, Brady connected with David Patten for a gain, setting up a field goal to tie the game. The Patriots would win in overtime, heading to the Super Bowl.
