kd4au 1,145 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I was wondering if anyone here smarter than me about the rules could tell me why it was not a fumble when the arky center tried to snap the ball and we recovered?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoleyLion 0 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I have to watch the replay but there was a false start before the center moved the ball if I remember correctly. Otherwise it is a fumble and we would have recovered. Pre-snap penalty overrode the fumble tho. Same as if there was a flase start and the center still snapped the ball over the QB's head.

gilstein21 1 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 probably would have been a snap infraction if not for the false start. I don't know if I've ever seen a shotgun snap bobbled like that other than ones that were called snap infractions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarTiger 3,910 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 There was a false start on the offense that killed the play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
