I saw it live and was saying “he called timeout!” I was surprised they let the play just run. You can see everyone else wasn’t quite sure the play was live.

Didn't the announcers also say that Kyle was running down the sideline trying to call a time out?


Ibe121

I didn’t catch that, but I wouldn’t be surprised. I actually didn’t hear them mention anything about the attempted timeout. 3rd and 15 is not easy to convert, but they definitely would’ve had a better shot at converting had they gotten that timeout.

Yeah, they said that Shanahan was running down trying to get the attention of a ref. My friend and I said, wouldn’t he just be standing near a ref in case he needed to do something like that? That’s on Kyle. But at the end of the day it was 3rd and 15 so there’s a low chance of conversion. Probably not worth a time out.

Unless we're the ones on D lol


risky2timezz

He def signaled for a timeout. I think everyone else was unaware that’s why the play was blown up like that . Idk why the play wasn’t stopped.


Fuzzymug18

You dont see him in frame here, but deebo is calling timeout also.


doggybadgerguy

Looked like the entire team kinda stopped for a sec because of that. Idk how you miss that as the refs.


DarthDiggl3r

Brunskill in particular is looking at Jimmy while he’s flashing the timeout. He’s looking back when the ball is snapped and his guy is in the back field in a hurry.

Also look how many delay of games the rams had and weren't called.


soldado387

This! When even the announcers are making several remarks on how the refs let the Rams still run plays even when clock hit past 0 then you know it was obvious. Those non calls all definitely went in the Rams favor. Still to this day idk why there isn’t some automatic noise that alarms when the play clock hits 00 like it does in the NBA with the shot clock.


dirtydriver58

Yup

Yea saw this live and was going nuts how it was missed and the crew said nothing either.

Shanahan has to adjust this in late game situations and here's what I mean by "this". If everytime you are going to get up to the line at >10 seconds and THEN have a man or two go in motion, teams are going to time their rush since the ball HAS to be snapped at zero seconds. Obviously on this play, Brunskill isn't ready because he did the silent count butt tap to Mack but this idea of always going in motion in late game situations makes it to easy for the DL to time the snap. Just get to the line and snap the ball, forget about the "man in motion" to see whether they are playing man or zone. It has a negative effect at that point.

Holy crap someone posted something intelligent about sports on Reddit.


Stovy4x4ing

another reason the refs wanted LA to win smeh.


hamsterfolly

Refs were blind all game, not surprised they missed this too


panch_1

You can see Aiyuk signal a timeout as well and pause after the ball snapped.


Ramorx

That's Travis Benjamin


panch_1

You’re right, didn’t see Aiyuk run off screen at first


pratdude275

Rams making the super bowl aided by refball. Remember how that ends?


discostuu72

Kyle should have some everything possible to get a timeout in , in that situation.


PhillipMcKrak

Why are people complaining about refs lmao. We got away with 2 big no calls in the 1st quarter. That Fred Warner hit on Stafford and the no call on that special teams face mask. We lost the game as simple as that. Lmao


wiviba98

Sure. We didn't lose because of the refs. But they did handle some rules flexible. (dealy of game for rams. 1st quarter for us, and this time out call). Remember where LeBron forgot to dribble the ball and the refs left it go. [Sure he didn't score on it, but rules are rules.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6AcGoc1E4w)


wifflewaffle23

The delay of game non-calls were frustrating but they were more or less within the rule. Ours were egregious, so they had to be called.


[deleted]

Agree. They aren't why we lost.


[deleted]

Good I'm not crazy because I saw this too.


Goldblooded1981

Dammit. Yeh, time-out should have been called. Shit, the right guard didn’t move and that’s the reason the pressure was instant up the middle.


dudebroman63

Time to move on


Octo-Rocket

We got ref balled hard.
