Pittman's Penalty, 8:55 of 4th Qtr

[Caffrey]

I reviewed it once during the game and a few times today, I did not see the false start and anything worthy of calling a false start penalty.  After watching the replay of the game tonight, my initial reaction was the related the to the play prior, a run by Hines in which towards then end of the run, Pittman made an aggressive block on the DB on the defensive side of the pile-up and it even looked like Ryan Kelley was looking who is that.  I was thinking the referee did not call a penalty on the block but called him for a false start on the next play.  Maybe I'm thinking too deep into this?

 

I like that he is an aggressive blocker, Reich did say he is a good blocker.  Keep it up and passes will be coming his way, in due time, at least he did play, coming back from his injury, getting some initial rust off and did not have an injury set-back.  We still got over half a season left.

What I have figured out is if you look at a few penalties called, you will find something that was called on a ghost. 

In turn there is so much "unseen" it's just as bad. It has a tendency to even itself out. 

There is not enough eyes to catch every penalty in real time live.

Is he though?  I don't recall the situation he is referring to in the Colts game...  but in last night's game they almost called helmet to helmet on a play and decided not to call it....  the very next play they called the defense for leading with the helmet, when he clearly did nothing wrong.  Sometimes it seems when the refs have a couple close calls that they decide not to throw a flag, they find a reason to throw one on the following play.  It is probably just a mental thing due to being human and not anything malicious.  Basically they feel it might look like they are being too one sided so psychologically, without realizing it, they make a call on the other team easier than normal.  I can't tell you how many times I have said out loud, "here comes a make up call", and there is a random holding call on the offense they don't show a replay of on the next play.  Maybe I'm thinking too deep into this?

He is thinking too much into it.  

 

Two completely non-descript plays that had little impact in the game and certainly no impact on the outcome.

I haven't had a chance to rewatch the game... it's not uncommon for officials to get the number of the player wrong on false start calls though.  Any chance another player (maybe Pascal #14) moved and they accidentally said #11?
