Safety

[Adam]

Are you sure the ball wasn't at the 1/2 yard line when his knee went down?

The explanation to me was that he bent over, picked the ball up, and knelt in the EZ

Adam's question was rhetorical: he's suggesting that the covering official should RULE that the ball was on the 1/2 YL when the knee went down.

This would be an alternative to Rich's finesse, and a way to give the ball to R without ruling a safety, despite their doing something dumb.

"Coach, we either have the ball at the half yard line, or it's a safety. I gave you the benefit of the doubt."
