I just found out the game is on NBC... THought it was NFL Network only. Tuned in just in time to see the blocked punt.

Good job Steelers. I just hope Lambo's tendency to kick low doesn't bite us in the butt. He's already had two close calls.

Can't a blocked field goal be returned? There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.
If Titans win, the Jags control their own destiny to first round bye... and very well may be #1 in conf with the way the schedule works. I rather have that outcome.

Tuned in just in time to see the blocked punt. According to Wiki, "Occasionally, the defense will succeed in blocking a field goal. If a blocked field goal is in or behind the neutral zone, it is treated like a fumble and can be advanced by either team. Beyond the neutral zone, a blocked kick is treated like a punt and can be advanced only by the defense, unless a defensive player fumbles the ball, after which an offensive player can advance it." ![]() (11-16-2017, 10:22 PM)jagibelieve Wrote:(11-16-2017, 10:20 PM)temporaryname Wrote: I just found out the game is on NBC...

In the NFL I think the kick can't cross the line of scrimmage in order to be a live ball. Not positive on that.

I always thought the rule was that if the kick was blocked and didn’t go beyond the LOS it was treated like a fumble. If the kick fell short and the defender catches it before it hits the ground, it can then be advanced.

I thought that I saw a defensive player (Steelers) just watch it stop on the ground rather than pick it up and advance it. I might be wrong (highly unlikely). ![]() There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't. We show less advertisements to registered users.

N/M - A missed FG has to be caught. LOS has no impact as I speculated.
It's the same officiating crew we had Sunday!
Guess they didn't get the job done Sunday. Man, when the NFL wants to screw you, it's gonna happen. ![]() |
