| Julius Peppers talking to official about a slow whistle |
And because the game is so fast, it is easily understandable when an official scorer makes an initial error in scoring. Also, if he makes a call, the coaches of a team can contact the NFL and ask that a play be reviewed. Sacks are the most reviewed calls, at least that is my understanding.
Today, Julius Peppers had a sack but also lost a sack in our view, but this one is not reviewable. Peppers came off the left edge and hit Case Keenum whose knee hit the ground. However, the gamer Keenum is caused him to get up and hustle but he was tackled a couple of yards ahead of where he should have been called down. This time, the play was whistled dead and defensive tackle Kyle Love was credited with the sack.

Watched it live, was absolutely a sack for Peppers and you could actually hear the announcer in the stadium call out Peppers as well. Of course they do manage to call out Luuuuuuke any time Kuechly is within 5 yards of the ball. Who? Wahoo!
ReplyDeleteFunny how that one sack would have moved him up a whole spot on the career sack leaders list .
