Subject: RE: We need you Ed HochuliThe sequence from the Steelers/Broncos last night game was interesting:
Broncos ball carrier fumbles the ball, Steelers recover, but player is ruled down by contact.
Steelers coach throws challenge flag simultaneously with Broncos snapping the ball for the next play. Refs fail to see the challenge flag.
Refs, on review, determine that Steelers coach threw the challenge flag prior to the snap of the ball. Steelers are awarded the challenge over Broncos’ objections.
Ruling on the field is upheld. Broncos retain possession, Pittsburgh charged with a timeout and a challenge.
