BTW there was nothing illegal about Harrison's block(s) since he used an open hand and Francisco made an effort to get up...Aaron should have stayed down on the ground if he didn't want to be blocked. The penalty was based on 'excessive force'.<br /><br />2.Holmes celebration was a rule violation and would have been a penalty if the officials saw it (watch the NFL network...all field officials turned around)<br /><br />3.Fumble--listen to Al Michaels...they had plenty of time to review in the booth because of the penalty on the play. It was so clear in high definition slow-motion..the ball very clearly moves in Kurt Warner's hand (almost to 90 degrees) before his arm could have moved forward. The best angle was facing Woodley and looking at Kurt Warner's back..his arm was pinned, the ball moved in Warner's hand, Woodley's arm came away from the ball, Warner's arm recoiled, ball propelled forward.
