On 4th and goal from the 15, Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor scrambled and threw to the end zone. Down six instead of three, Buffalo needed to drive the field and score a touchdown to win instead of having the option to kick another field goal and send the game to overtime. That missed field goal came back to haunt the Bills in the game’s closing seconds. Carpenter’s kick got pushed back those five yards Sherman’s offside penalty once gave him, and his next kick knuckled wide to the right. Was it a clock error? Who knows! Does it even matter? We’re all born to die and the game’s over and there’s no changing it. Delay of game on the offense! /OylelWEfMi The official was still over the ball when the play clock expired. What is a catch? What is taunting? What is “a football move?” Is any of it actually exciting? Does it even matter all that much anyway when the sun will one day explode? Was Richard Sherman - like the intelligent football player he’s typically framed as - playing the game within the scope of the rules? Or was he a dirty player running amok?
#Penalties in the first half of mnf game professional#
But watching a professional football game in 2016 is often less about understanding what’s actually happening on the field and more about imagining the possibilities of the thought experiment unfolding live on national television. Or was he? Sherman was involved in two controversial plays at the end of each half. Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman was very good at not getting penalties called on him against the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football in the Seahawks 31-25 win. At this point, it’s becoming very clear that few people actually know the rules of the National Football League anymore.
