baddfish2 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Here's the play by play from NFL.com: 3-9-STL31 (:04) M.Hasselbeck spiked the ball to stop the clock. PENALTY on SEA-R.Tobeck, Illegal Formation, 5 yards, enforced at SL 31 - No Play. Doesn't an offensive penalty with under a minute to play mean they run 10 seconds off the clock...? If it's supposed to, then shouldn't the game have been over...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL Fan Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 The Hulk (Ed Hochuli) explained that since it was an illegal formation, the play never happened, so no runoff. If the penalty happens during the play, it's game over. That comeback had me thinking about the Super Bowl loss to the Patriots. Score to go ahead then watch them stroll 60 yards and win on a long kick. ouch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STL Fan Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 By the way someone needs to tell Ed that those shirts also come in a medium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
