Seattle had the ball 3rd and 2 with a chance to ice the game

And Russell Wilson ran a bootleg..........and passed the ball................and completed it for 50 yards.

I had a flashback to Saturday. Haha. Don't do that to me.

Apparently that was a penalty to intentionally bat the ball out of the end zone and should have been Detroit ball 1st and goal at 6 inch line.

Either the refs missed it, or if you watch the replay again, it was very clear that it was going to bounce out of bounds anyways, so no real harm in batting it.

At least that's what I'd say if I was one of those refs.

Definitely not clear that it was going out of bounds. The ball was a yard or two in bounds when he touched it. With the way a football bounces, you never know. I remembered him hitting it out of bounds but didn't think about it being a penalty until I turned on Sportscenter this morning.

I'll have to look again, but I thought it looked close to going out on it's own. That sucks for the Lions though.
