Those plays all happened pretty quickly. I don't think these refs were communicating very well. I didn't know what they had called the previous play, especially since Landry got up and ran another ten yards. Not even sure where they spotted it. The announcers in the booth didn't seem to know either.
There was another play where it was 3rd and 1, and then they changed it to 1st and 10 as the ball was about to be snapped. |
