Error by officials in Tennessee vs. Cleveland game (1 Viewer)

Ok, here is Tennessee's last drive:

1-10-TEN 29 (7:10) 28-C.Johnson left end to CLE 38 for 33 yards (21-B.Pool).

1-10-CLE 38 (6:21) 25-L.White up the middle to CLE 33 for 5 yards (91-S.Smith, 92-S.Rogers).

2-5-CLE 33 (5:40) 25-L.White left guard to CLE 28 for 5 yards (92-S.Rogers).

1-10-CLE 28 (4:56) 25-L.White right tackle to CLE 4 for 24 yards (21-B.Pool). PENALTY on TEN-68-K.Mawae, Offensive Holding, 10 yards, enforced at CLE 28 - No Play.

1-20-CLE 38 (4:47) 28-C.Johnson right guard to CLE 29 for 9 yards (21-B.Pool, 26-S.Jones).

2-11-CLE 29 (3:59) 28-C.Johnson left guard to CLE 26 for 3 yards (91-S.Smith, 99-C.Williams).

3-8-CLE 26 (3:15) 25-L.White left end pushed ob at CLE 14 for 12 yards (52-D.Jackson).

1-10-CLE 14 (3:09) 25-L.White right guard to CLE 11 for 3 yards (93-L.Leonard).

2-7-CLE 11 (2:24) 25-L.White right guard to CLE 10 for 1 yard (21-B.Pool, 93-L.Leonard).

Two-Minute Warning

3-6-CLE 10 (2:00) 25-L.White left tackle to CLE 6 for 4 yards (93-L.Leonard).

Timeout #1 by CLE at 01:53.

4-2-CLE 6 (1:53) 25-L.White left end to CLE 7 for -1 yards (52-D.Jackson).

-- Lendale has run the ball down their throats all the way down the field.-- It is 3rd and 6, Lendale gets 4 yards. Game is in hand so Tennessee lines up to go for it.

-- Cleveland calls a timeout.

-- Officials whistle ready...Cleveland realizes they only have 10 men on the field so Cleveland calls another timeout.

-- Wait a minute...you can't call back to back timeouts, right Joe Gibbs?

-- Officials blow the whistle, then huddle up.

-- Ron Winters emerges and proclaims that Cleveland will not be awarded a timeout because you can't call back to back timeouts. Well, duh, Ron -- that is why it is a penalty.

-- However, they also do not call a penalty -- they just disallow the timeout...which they didn't disallow because the stoppage in play allowed the 11th man to get on the field. So, basically they allowed back to back timeouts and in the process gave them an extra timeout.

** Lendale had exactly 100 yards, then lost 1 on the subsequent 4th and 2. Had the correct penalty been called, it would have been 1st and goal on the 3. Lendale gets the ball up to 4 straight times then scores. He finishes with 103 yards.

** Having 2 RBs go over 100 yards each 3 times in one season hadn't happened since 1976 with Bleier and Harris on the Steelers.

** I bet the diff between 99 and 100 yards was a loss for a bunch of fantasy teams, too. Fisher was trying to tell them but they just wouldn't listen. Horrible, horrible crew. They also mispotted a 10 yard penalty by 5 yards. Winter pointed the wrong way on 2 penalties.

.... Lendale gets the ball up to 4 straight times then scores ....

Or with the game sewn up, the classy Coach Fisher just has the QB kneel down and run out the clock.

Maybe that, too. Fish was well aware that Lendale had exactly 100 yards so it would have been KFC taking the knee -- Lendale keeps the 100 yard game along with CJ.On the other hand, Cleveland kept calling the timeouts. Thy stopped the clock at 1:53. After getting the ball back, the called 2 more timeouts, kept passing, and kept stopping the clock. That's why you saw them drill Dorsey after a pass.

I lost a bit of respect to Fisher on Sunday I know you're a homer so you won't like this but didn't he challenge some play late in that game with a 28-9 lead or something like that. Thought it was a bit uncalled for but may not be 100% certain... I really like him but thought it was kind of in your face & meaningless...

Did not get to see this game, but he challenged one on Thanksgiving day against Detroit that wasn't needed. Challenged a defensive TD when they were up huge. I still think he's a great coach....just don't like some of the calls he's made recently.

His explanation was that his defense had played so well, he thought it was iffy, and didn't want it hung on the defense's #s if it wasn't complete. What...he should give the Lions charity?

You say it took away a record but you state that it last happened in 1976. If that is the case, how would this have been a record if the Titans had accomplished it? Ties a record, maybe, not sure because we don't know what the record is. From your own reference it is not possible to tell what the record is...mayabe 4 times, 5 times, etc. You simply state that the Titans would have done the same thing that the Steelers did 32 years ago.

It was the Detroit D's score that was being challenged not Tenn's. All I am saying is that while watching the game it seemed like overkill. I don't particularly like or dislike Tenn, so I am not biased....I am a big fan of Fisher and what he gets out of his players. I thought he was robbed for coach of the year last season FWIW. It's just one slackers thoughts on what I saw.

Original sub-title cut off the full text. I was simply saying that it was something that hadn't happened in this generation of football. I think this would have been the 3rd time, the last being Steelers in 1976. Pretty Impressive.

Or, they give Lendale the ball at the 3 and he gets dropped for a loss of 3 end ends up with 97 yards after they put in my boy CJ to take it home from the 6. Not to mention that Lendale gets a broken leg on the play and is unable to play a snap the rest of the year, and the backlash of this injury is so devastating to the moral of the Titans that they lose the rest of their games... Since we are playing the hypothetical game and all.You are right, it was a bad call (or non call in this case). Refs make mistakes all the time. It happens.

The 1958 Browns also had three games with a pair of 100-yard rushers, but it wasn't the same pair all three times (2 x Brown/Mitchell, 1 x Brown/Carpenter). Them and the 1976 Steelers are the only teams to do it. In addition to the 2008 Titans, 13 other teams have had a pair of 100-yard rushers in the same game twice in a season. The 2008 Panthers are in that group, FWIW.With regard to the OP...Man, I thought I let the small stuff get to me! You're going to have a heart attack at 32 if you're using the on that kind of stuff.

Fish was well aware that Lendale had exactly 100 yards so it would have been KFC taking the knee -- Lendale keeps the 100 yard game along with CJ.

uh huh. I'm sure "Fish" was thinking about White's 100 yard game and would change how teams in the NFL runs out the clock by having the QB take the knee.

Fish was well aware that Lendale had exactly 100 yards so it would have been KFC taking the knee -- Lendale keeps the 100 yard game along with CJ.

uh huh. I'm sure "Fish" was thinking about White's 100 yard game and would change how teams in the NFL runs out the clock by having the QB take the knee.

I'll see if I can find a transcript but he said this very thing on his TV show last night in response to the question about this issue.

I'm more interested in seeing when White has taken the knee.

Jesus H. Christ you guys, the OP is correct, it was a horrible "non-call" by the refs. Did it have a big impact to the actual game? No, not at all. Still horrible officiating.

Thanks OP for sharing and for the detailed breakdown of the problem, I only get to see about 2-3 games a week and this wasn't one of them.

With that said, I'd put more blame on K.Mawae's holding penalty for keeping White from 100+ yards. Then again if he hadn't held, would he have gotten a 24-yard run?

We've talked about everything...but the improper call / non-call.

How odd for a thread to devolve away from topic...

My appologies to the OP for getting so off topic here. I think this year more than most I've seen alot of calls and non calls that I didn't understand at all. WMD's original assessment is on the money.
