Item 3. Passer Out of Bounds Before Throwing Pass. A ruling that a player stepped out of bounds before throwing a pass is not reviewable to determine if he was inbounds when he threw the pass.

The refs were ****ing awful.
They did everything they could to keep the Bills in it. |

Not sure why that wouldn't be reviewable. I see the rule, just doesn't make sense. I'm fine with the overturn, rather have the right call.

Oh, wait. If it's specifically about passing, maybe the concern is that defenders have to let up when the QB is going out of bounds, so the QB could use that to his advantage. It's such a specific rule that there's a specific scenario it's meant to guard against. But what's the scenario? |

Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with reviewing that.
What's the rulebook say about sacking a QB and forcing a fumble only to have it called forward progress stopped? |

It's pretty obvious why this isn't reviewable. It was discussed in the game thread.
If he is ruled out of bounds, that means the whistle was blown. If the whistle was blown, you then cannot award a completion on a play because the defense may have stopped. in the situation with the Chiefs game, I think it makes sense to allow the review because all it did was negate a sack, the past was incomplete. However, the NFL has clearlystated that this situation is not revealable It's the same explanation for not being able to review a play and decide that a player did not go out of bounds. If the whistle is blown, the defense stops, so you cannot award additional yards. The exception is that a player can be awarded an extra step or two towards a touchdown or a first down marker if he is erroneously ruled to have stepped out of bounds. |

If I'm reading that correctly, i think the play is dead via whistle when the player is out of bounds, and touching out of bounds is reviewable on running and passing plays.

My argument sitting at the bar was that he would have damn sure been OOB if a linebacker would have lit him up before his foot came down.

When you are across the sideline, and throw a pass that goes further out of bounds, isn't that the very definition of intentional grounding? Who cares if the ball crosses the LOS to make it a legal pass.
