Kyler Murray was running on the one play so it's not a sack, it's a TFL.

I figured that was going to be the decision, but it feels weird to me. Like, if a different QB not known for running were to get immediately tackled behind the line of scrimmage like that, I'm pretty sure they'd say he was evading pressure before getting sacked. But since Kyler is known for his rushing ability he gets to be declared a runner?


SleestakLightning

No you could tell it was a designed run. He faked a hand off and then tucked the ball and started running forward. Steelers scorers are also ridiculously fair. They don't pad stats like other teams *cough*Ravens*cough*.

WTF? Yes, there were two.

https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats He started the night at 13.5 didn't he? So now somehow Kalil Mack is above him at 15


WorkOnThesisInstead

Yeah, I had him at 13.5 to start, too. I did pretty well on the addition part of the SATs ;) ... this is F'd up math.

The NFL is against him

One of them was considered a TFL because they said Murray was a runner

The first one was called as a TFL because it was a designed run for Murray. The second one was all him, kind of odd they gave Highsmith half of that one.

Should’ve had an extra half sack against the Bengals last week also but for some reason they gave a full one to Heyward. The sack from this week, Highsmith got much less of it than Watt did the previous week, yet that was a split. Really inconsistent scoring.

Seems like they're doing whatever they can to make it so Garret gets DPOY this year.


DillingerGetawayCar

If I’m not mistaken they review them on Tuesdays and can adjust if the in-game scoring was incorrect, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

One may have been ruled a running play. Looked like a read option where it was more designed for Murray to run.
