“He’s two yards inside.” Griese at 12:06 mark.

Keith was looking at the line on the end zone graphic.


Here it is -- actually, it could've been a 99-yard TD

had Rice not slightly underthrown The Rocket. (It won't let me embed, so here's the link.)


Jeez, Jackson was incredulous.

He was still talking about it five minutes later. Finally the truck dialed up the replay with Bob Griese trying to politely point out his mistake and Jackson still didn't want to hear it - immediately blaming the official again (12:10 mark).


He clearly stepped on the line.

The red one. Not the out of bounds one.

Keith was just hoping.


The way I saw it

he was just old. And he didn't retire for another 18 years.


You're probably right.
