Ron Paul, Rick Santorum Suggest Foul Play From Romney Campaign
It didn't have as many twists and turns as the kickoff return in the Cal-Stanford game in 1982, and no trombone players were injured in the aftermath, but the ending of the first half in the Atlanta Falcons game against the Buffalo Bills could have been a contender for craziest play of the year -- if it had counted.With five seconds remaining in the half, Matt Bryant's 55-yard field goal attempt was blocked and recovered by Justin Jenkins, who took it eight yards and lateraled the ball to Reggie Corner, who took the ball backwards, then sideways and then forward for four yards before fumble-lateraling to George Wilson. It was Wilson who progressed forward, evading tackles and finally crossing the goal line.
The booth called down to the field and said they wanted to view the replay. They later decided to invoke the 4th down fumble rule that states if an offensive player fumbles anywhere on the field, he has to be the person who recovers the fumble if it is to be advanced. Since Corner fumbled instead of lateraling the ball, he had to be the person to pick it up, not Wilson. Injured on the play was Falcons punter (also the holder of the blocked kick) Michael Koenen.
