I am confused by two decisions in this game. One was reviewed one was not (should have been)
1) The fumble. I ran it back. It is clearly without a doubt whistled dead prior to recovery by Seattle. I thought rules are recovery has to happen PRIOR to whistle for other team to keep it
Am I wrong? Clearly helped Seattle
2) Final drive, 2nd and goal. Ball is caught, secured clearly, player inbound and past the goal line. Player gets hit which causes the ball to come lose and fall to the ground
Being in the end zone with current rules I thought secured would do it and final tackle can't jar it lose as player is already in the end zone
Is this wrong? Mostly surprised on number 1
And by the way 5-0 - Go Hawks. Only sad because of thinking about how crazy it would have been there tonight. I would be getting absolutely hammered in a bar outside the stadium now ....
