Jesus, some of you.

To the first poster, yes, he's inside of 73 at the time of the pass, but that's irrelevant. The tackle box is drawn from where the tackles line up before the snap.

To the second poster, no, he didn't move five yards to his right. He moved 1-2 yards to his right, probably.

The QB is right on the line of the tackle box. And honestly, the quarterback usually gets the benefit of the doubt, in that situation. So I don't think it was some terrible call. It was a borderline call that went to the offense's way. And usually that's the case.

This is one of those plays that could have been called either way, and it really wouldn't have been a bad call either way. It was extremely close.

I'm aware. And he's still not outside the tackle box.
