#2 Seattle vs Balt. A Tiem out signaled for during a penalty play. Clock stopped as officials confer. Decide to pick up the flag ( not sure why but irrelevant). Flag was on a run play clock to begin on the ready. Officials did NOT charge BALT with a TO and did not wind the clok on the ready, in a sence giving Balt what they wanted, a stopped clock. Balt in a sence was given 4 TO's.
NFL has already claimed that it was a human mnistake.

I have to commend the Seattle's coach, he said that this adminstration mistake was not the reason they lost, anyone watching the game, they were up pretty well. He did not blame it on the officials and I thought that was great.
As for what happened, linesman threw a flag for illegal formation because he had an ineligible player(by number) lined up on the end of the line but the player reported to the referee, so they waved the flag off.
Baltimore wasn't given a timeout and the WH just didn't wind the clock on the RFP.
