After Further Review: Denver Broncos vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The best part for an official about a decisive win is no one thinks that the officials decided the outcome of the game. There were still some interesting and baffling calls worth exploring from the Denver Broncos beatdown of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

False Start

I do not write about false starts much, because they are pretty boring. If you do not want to be penalized, do not move early. However, there was an extremely interesting one in the second quarter that is worth our specific attention. Lining up almost at the goal line, Tampa Bay Center Graham Barton was flagged for a false start, even though replay showed he very obviously did not move abruptly or in a qualifying manner.
