Yeah, darn that Tuck Rule. Imagine, a ref making a call based on what the rules actually are. Damn those Pats for following the rules. Damn them all.... ;0)

The Tuck Rule came out of nowhere. Nobody knew what it was, after the game they looked it up and there it was in the rule book, written in pencil, in Belichick's handwriting...

According to the Tuck Rule, the quarterback can, upon receiving the ball, fake a throw and, even if the play goes on a full 30 minutes, can never be charged with a fumble.
