Nfl Question 8
Welcome to NFL Officiating 101 - On a 2nd-and-6 play from their own 29-yard line, a Bills receiver goes out for a pass. The pass is tipped by a Steelers defensive lineman as it crosses the line of scrimmage. A Steelers defensive back pushes the Bills receiver to the turf, intercepting the pass at the Bills 38-yard line and returning it to the end zone. What does the referee call?
The correct answer is 'A touchdown for the Steelers.'
If the pass had not been tipped at the line of scrimmage, the Steelers defensive back would have been whistled for pass interference, which is a spot foul. As it is, once a pass is tipped, there is no such thing as pass interference. The ball is fair game for whomever can get to it. Give the Steelers six points!
