As per subject

They did just now and Geno fumbled

Previous play

Throw the freakin ball buddy.

 

[hugecanoli]

Second week in the row that happened.

 

[Pickly]

Grubb overcompensating for only running the ball a handful of times last week. I mean can we not at least balance the offense a little bro?

 

[cymatica]

Because Cross reacted before the ball was snapped

 

[kidhawk]

If the defender causes a false start on the offense then they blow the play dead and the penalty is on the defense. Another reason they can blow it dead is if the official believes the defender was getting through “unabated to the qb”
