Breaking down the good and the bad from the officials in the Denver Broncos 23-10 loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 12.
Hidden Replay
Sam Darnold’s rolling touchdown in the third quarter exhibited a hidden use of replay in the NFL. Line judge Maia Chaka did not signal one way or the other on the play. She clearly came in shy of the goal line to imply that the ball was down short of the goal, but did not signal it that way (one hand raised). Instead she had a discussion with other officials, culminating in a ruling of a touchdown.
