Solution to Sherman's Play

The Buffalo OL should put block on him like they were supposed to, then we wont be subjected to stupidity of the NFL not standing by their decision that they made mistake on call, indecision etc.

There's a numbers advantage for the defense on a field goal. They can't block everybody. The goal is to have the free runners be so far wide that they can't get to the kick in time.

Hes an all pro- and has blocked AND returned recovered fumbles for return TD. If Rex doesnt know this, and prepare accordingly then he shouldnt be coaching.

Play to the whistle. No whistle blown, so you continue on.

Simple as that.

There are claims that the whistle was blown, but if it was why was the kicker continuing to kick the ball? If he doesn't go through with the kick, there wouldn't have been contact. If he didn't fall down and play-act as if poleaxed, the trainers wouldn't have come on the field forcing him to sit out a play.

That play was entirely the kicker's fault.

Kickers virtually always complete the kick once the ball is snapped.

They do it when the opponent tries to ice with a late TO.

True, but neither line stopped playing, and none of the refs came running in like they would if the play was being blown dead
