Exactly. There was only 2 seconds to run off too. Just stand over him until it hits zero and tag him down then.

Also Booger, on the PAT, it didn't matter if it was roughing the kicker or running into the kicker. They were going to get to kick it again anyway. The roughing just moved it 15 yds up instead of 5.

Offensive players can give themselves up and refs will whistle play dead.

Laremy Tunsil, not worth two 1st rd picks.

Instantly?

Yes

just like a QB kneel.

I thought that was just in college football.

Even if true, if the Texans wouldn't have tackled the guy so fast they might have been able to tick off the other two seconds before the refs would have signaled the "he gives himself up" call.

Houston should have lost the way they defended the last possession. Gave up three passes without contesting one inch. Really poor coaching.

You could say the same for how New Orleans defended with a 6 point lead and less than 50 seconds. They only gave up two passes for the TD.

So, did Watson score too soon?

All they would have had to do was check replay for when he gave himself up. He did with a couple seconds left. They would have put time back on the clock.

Thanks for posting this pdom. But did he slide feet first? Or was he going down to catch the pass? I honestly don't remember.


when a runner declares himself down by sliding feet first on the ground. The ball is dead the instant the runner touches the ground with anything other than his hands or his feet

 

[data]

Regardless of feet first or not, I’m confident the refs would’ve whistled it dead instantly.

 

[data]

Damn. Dwayne Harris still playing? Dude is old, it seems.

Youll tell me next that Paul MacQuistan is still on a roster

 

[VA Cowboy]

Well well well, wth have you been?
