Based on the position of the "wing" official (at the top of the picture) who is practically next to the ends, it appears they were expecting the offense to take-a-knee.

Anyone know the game time remaining..
Otherwise if looks and smells like the we've got the wrong ball play. Shame on the coach... shame of the officials for not killing the play. Yes, I mean killing the play.

The way the coach on the sideline was holding up the ball, this looks like it might have been a variation of the old "where is the tee?" play but this time "we've got the wrong ball". Clearly illegal. I hope they didn't let this stand.

I know the play is illegal and will get called back. However the rule book calls this an "Unfair Act" penalty. The signal is "27 which is Unsportsmanlike. I would call it Unsportsman Like and give the penalty to the QB.

Any argument for penalizing for "Unfair Act" and not counting it as Unsportsmanlike or for giving to the Head Coach instead of the QB.

Is there anyway to download this? I can view it but would like to use it for a clinic.

Looks like everyone who left comments on there is planning to use it this year as well.
