Reply to "Seahawks or Pats"

When Herron was on the Patriots they were starting to get good in the 70s. Chuck Fairbanks had taken over as Coach/GM. In addition to Herron they had Sam (Bam) Cunningham, Andy Johnson and Don Calhoun. The Tuck call with Brady versus the Raiders was karma for the phantom roughing the passer call on Ray Hamilton against Kenny Stabler in 1976.

 

ESPN: Worst calls in sports history - dishonorable mention

 

With the Patriots up by three points in final two minutes, referee Ben Dreith calls roughing the passer on New England's Sugar Bear Hamilton after he hits Oakland QB Ken Stabler in 1976 NFL playoffs. Raiders go on to score a touchdown in the final minute to win 21-17, and go on to win the Super Bowl.
