MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Referee Bill Leavy mistakenly penalized the Minnesota Vikings after coach Leslie Frazier tried to challenge a ruling on a muffed punt in the second quarter of Sunday's game against Cleveland.

It was the second big miscue for Leavy's crew in the season's first three weeks.

.............."A timeout should have been charged instead of a 15-yard penalty," Leavy told a pool reporter after the Browns beat the Vikings, 31-27.

The error proved costly for the Vikings. Instead of a first-and-10 at the Browns 26 with two timeouts and over two minutes remaining in the first half, the Vikings were pushed back to a first-and-25 at the Cleveland 41. After three passes from Christian Ponder, they settled for a 43-yard field goal by Blair Walsh.

Good ol' Bill Leavy. Jeez.

If not for his screw ups, SF could be 0-3 and Minnesota could be 1-2.

He seems like a nice guy and all but ffs get him out of football. even nice people can flat out suck at their jobs.

How can a guy who has been a referee in the NFL for so long NOT understand the rules?
