professor Yes they blew it. Yes, they actually did own it. BUT....if deemed an inadvertent whistle, by NY, then it gets reviewed. Thus, it was.
This F up is not really on or about the officials. It is more about the players not playing out the play, or even knowing the rules themselves.
jmo......and again, it's too close to Christmas to be negative.
🤣 Now I got 2...✅!!
(yes, I know any official should never blow a whistle until play is over/dead as they are supposed to know the rules inside/out. Do they keep them in their lips at all times???)
