When the Skins ran the reverse to Randle El, CBS scored it as a split sack for Blackburn/Tuck. How can that be a sack on a reverse? MFL has scored it that way as well.

Looked like the goal of that play was for him to pass the ball. In fact, he set up to do so. Then, when the pass rush came in on top of him, he tucked the ball, tried a move or two, and ended up buried under three Giants. So apparently the scorer was going on the basis that this was a designed option play and Randle El tried to throw it.
