Probably already discussed, but it would have been hilarious if Utah had pulled off a miracle on the kick return

I think that penalty wouldn't have called back a TD.

How?

Nov 11, 8:44pm

The rulebook wording indicates that unsportsmanlike conduct on a non-player is always considered a dead-ball penalty

It would have been enforced on the extra point

Which wouldn't be played since a two point swing couldn't turn the game at that point.

Different penalty.

momowagon

Nov 11, 9:10pm

Different penalty for the same infraction? They could have called it 12 men on

RGGeemer

Way to move the goalposts though haha

It matters what the ref says. Unsportsmanlike is a different penalty than

momowagon

Nonsense. A non player could enter the field and block one off our players and the TD would still count

If it effects play it's a different penalty.

momowagon

Gif course it would. It would be a re-kick

It was called as unsportsmanlike, not interfering with play.

That was called as sideline interference. They got in the way of the ballcarrier

momowagon

Nov 11, 8:53pm

No they didn't. Falslev was clear on the other side of the field.

RGGeemer

Nov 11, 8:57pm

Nope.

momowagon

Nov 11, 9:01pm

Yep

RGGeemer

Nov 11, 9:04pm

Another angle

RGGeemer

Nov 11, 9:07pm

And the call. Live ball foul.

RGGeemer

Nov 11, 9:08pm

Exactly. Not unsportsmanlike which is a dead ball foul. It's a different penalty

momowagon

Nov 11, 9:14pm

Of course not because we would decline it.

RGGeemer

Nov 11, 9:16pm

Sure. But why would it be enforced differently in that situation?

momowagon

Nov 11, 9:26pm

That's what I'm asking you. Same infraction. Shpuld be the same enforcement no?

Oh man, too bad he didn’t run to the far sideline. He would have gotten lost in their fans running on the field

Nov 11, 9:11pm

I don't know the answer and I'm not really following the debate, but I do

Nov 11, 10:11pm

Even better if one of our players just laid him out. He’s fair game IMO.
