Loser loser grits for dinner

They aren’t showing many angles. He can’t touch anyone, but I guess he didn’t?

2nd and four with plenty of time left and you go for a shot to the end zone making it a must get 3rd and 4. Idiotic call.

announcer ref said he was "in the gap". whatever. it's always illegal when my team does it.
He did touch players.

After the long Geno run we were in perfect position to drive down throwing short passes using up the clock and the worse case would have been a short FG but no, have to go for a 1% pass to the end zone. Idiots!!

Here's the wording of the rule.

Running forward and leaping across the line of scrimmage in an obvious attempt to block a field goal or Try Kick, unless the player was in a stationary position on the line of scrimmage when the ball was snapped. A player who is behind the line of scrimmage before, or at the snap, may run forward and leap, provided he does not cross the line of scrimmage or land on players.

I don't see any mention of being allowed if your in the gap.
