My team got screwed on the dumbest rule ever created. I still don't understand the tuck rule. That was the year the Raiders would have won the Superbowl. Instead they traded their coach and lost to him in the Superbowl the following year.

“My team got screwed on the dumbest rule ever created. I still don’t understand the tuck rule.”

Maybe you don’t know, but the Patriots had the same call, the Tick rule, go against them earlier the same year in a game against the Cleveland Browns.

And maybe the Football Gods were dishing out some payback for the playoff game a few years earlier between the Patsd and Raiders, when they called a truly bogus roughing the passer against the Patriots, that allowed Stabler and the Raiders to go on to win the game.....Football Karma!
