After Further Review: Denver Broncos vs Los Angeles Chargers

There were eight accepted penalties and one booth initiated replay review inside of two minutes as the Denver Broncos were swept by the Los Angeles Chargers. One obscure ruling, and a total unwillingness to throw flags against the Chargers were defining themes from the officials.

Officiating for Rookies

This game brought me back to being a new official. When I first started officiating, we would spend hours going through the rulebook. Section by section reading it, discussing it, being quizzed on it. Fair-catch kicks are something that almost any decent football official knows very well about and has probably answered tens or hundreds of exam questions about, even though I went my entire career without seeing one.
