Anybody who was a Seahawks fan in 2012 remembers the Fail Mary, a desperation heave from the 24-yard line by Russell Wilson as time ran out against the Green Bay Packers. Golden Tate put a hand on the ball, so did Packers safety M.D. Jennings, and as they fell to the turf together, one of the replacement refs (who could forget that sorry era?) signaled a touchdown, while the other signaled an interception. Overnight, thousands of irate football fans became contract lawyers, fine-slicing the rule book and shouting at each other about “simultaneous possession” and “joint control.
The strip of DK Metcalf was called correctly, after all (and now we can laugh about it)
