I think it is safe to say that we all have seen or been involved in a B/C play where 2 officials have different calls. Neither has given a preliminary, there is a 50/50 chance for either call and one official takes the call. They report the charge. The coach says to the other you official "you had a block, tell him."

In this case the L official yields to the T official, therefore it was never a Blarge. That is what happened here.

The only people who are discussing it at all are OFFICIALS, because the actions are TYPICAL - not 100% - of calling a block. No one (media, fans, teams) is complaining that the call should've been because it looked like the L was going to call something else. It is likely the coaches, players, and a hand full of fans noticed. But I can tell you just as many don't know they had different calls. Just ask my parents, sisters, brother-in-laws, wife and kids and the others at Buffalo Wild Wings that had no clue.

When it comes to their evaluations the L did not receive an ICC and the T got a CC.
