Terry MacAulay is arguing with me now. Elon wants to take that away.
can’t believe the refs blew that touchback myself, like he literally has the ball in the end zone
Just pay $8 and change your twitter handle to ‘4chanlulztrump202442069’ and you’ll be able to argue with Goodell lol
Could be two new coaches right? Wonder when the last time that happened was (that wasn’t week 1 ofc).
no, both were just hired and even urban meyer got to coach 13 games
I honestly think MacAulay might be wrong. Here’s the rule he’s citing on twitter:
https://twitter.com/SNFRules/status/1592020347347505152
Don’t you think if there was something as counter-intuitive and counter to every other (non-personal foul) NFL rule as “it does not matter if the play is blown dead, the player still has to hand the ball to the ref without walking into the end zone” it would be explicitly called out?
Like does every rule in the book need to say “only applies before the whistle blows”.
MacAulay is being really weird too, refusing to acknowledge the whistle at all - like it doesn’t matter and he can’t even understand why that part is confusing us. Makes me think he’s backed himself into a corner and can’t admit he might be wrong.
I mean does it really make any sense that if the player is in the middle of the field and the ref is 20 feet away, the player needs to avoid the end zone line as he walks the ball to the ref? Have you ever seen a player do that?
I guess they usually just place the ball on the ground. Which could explain some of the weirdness. But again, I really don’t think it’s 100% clear by that rule that a player can’t walk into the end zone with the ball after the play is blown dead.
This is what MacAulay is talking about. But it seems very different because the whistle hadn’t even blown yet. It’s like he’s confusing dead ball and dead play.
They literally talk about listening for the whistle!
Completely different plays. No way should that be a touchback yesterday. def a touchback on the 2020 play.
His momentum of catching the ball caused the 2020 guy to cross the line.
Yesterday he pauses for most of a second and the ref blew the damn whistle.
whistle doesn’t matter
it’s not that hard to just down the ball and not go into the end zone
You didn’t read the fine print.
technical minutiae details only apply to the Detroit Lions.
Otherwise common sense rules. No way should it matter once the whistle is blown.
common sense is not to take the ball into the end zone
also the lions benefited from the refs yesterday
Common sense is don’t watch football.
Nice deliberate running into the punter strategy
Followed by ye old strip sack.
Exactly. All part of the plan.
