We had a playoff game yesterday. I am BJ. QB threw a ball toward the sideline and no one there. Specifically, no one even outside the hash mark to throw to. I am watching the receivers, didn't see the QB do it. Play is over and coach from the other sideline is yelling for IG. White hat walks toward the open area and the linesman and me. He asks if there was anyone in the area. (coach still yelling as we work on this) We both say no. White hat throws a flag (got lots of air under it). One of the best examples of talking it over and getting it right. This kind of officiating makes me proud of the job we did yesterday. Both teams got a good job from us. Last year we had a similar situation and it was a no-call but the white hat didn't check with us. We agreed after that game to confer next time.
Between the white hat and me, we have about 65 years of officiating experience. Just shows we can ALWAYS get better.
