Falcons @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 4

[S197]

Leaving a lot of points on the board, defense should be fresh though, they've had the end of the 1st half, halftime, and a couple minutes of the 2nd to rest.

Vikes have 392 yards of offense.

Wonder if some of the teams that passed on Teddy Bridgewater in the draft are feeling a little queasy today...

[J. Kapp 11]

I don't mind this. Short throws to Jackson aren't going to win the game for Atlanta.

[J. Kapp 11]

But long throws to Julio Jones will.

[PurpleKoolaid]

No pressure with a blitz....

[Laserman]

come on defense get a turnover

[Purple Reign]

Yes the ref's made a mistake. here is the rule.

Replay Reviews and 10-Second Runoffs
If a video replay review is ordered in the final minute of either half while the clock is running, the officials will order 10 seconds run off the clock. Either team can prevent the runoff by using a timeout. This rule prevents a team that is out of timeouts from gaining any benefit from a clock stoppage caused by replay review.

Curious where this was quoted from. Here is a quote from the NFL rule book that I found on NFL.com and it doesn't mention anything about being able to call a timeout to prevent the run off so it appears there is conflicting versions:

Article 4
If a replay review inside of one minute of either half results in the on-field ruling being reversed and
the correct ruling would not have stopped the game clock, then the officials will run 10 seconds off the
game clock before permitting the ball to be put in play on the ready-for-play signal. All normal rules
regarding 10-second runoffs will apply.

Is Robison doing anything?

[J. Kapp 11]

Nice hit, Barr.

[Laserman]
