The game-costing play NFL analysts are choosing to ignore

I guess it was easy to miss — if you’re inclined to ignore what’s impossible to miss.

Last Sunday, had the 6-0 Rams lost to the 3-4 Broncos, it would have been a bigger story than the one that went widely ignored, the one about how the Broncos lost.

Late in the first quarter, the Rams led, 6-0, when Denver receiver Emmanuel Sanders thought he’d caught a touchdown pass.

Not good enough, he rose in the end zone and immediately headed toward the defensive back he had beaten, Troy Hill, to shake a finger in his face.
