In the stadium, it sounded like they changed it to a dead ball foul when it clearly happened in the course of the play.


I would guess the main issue in being dead ball is it is marked off from where the play ended vs. spot of the foul. It was a BS call as it was, I think it was Mills who went to block Wallace, who was trying to make a play. Their helmets collided when they hit, but it looked like Wallace actually led with his helmet more than Mills did. It was basically like any other block, it certainly wasn't a cheap shot or away from the play.

My other question for folks watching on TV is regarding the punt that was downed on the 15 and then spotted 20 yards forward. The ref said we illegally touched the ball. WTF?

Exactly as it happened.

That's wishful thinking.

This part is true. Didn't look like the DB was trying to take the QB out.
