CHICAGO — Apparently, the refs were right?
It was a strange circumstance at the end of the first half, when the officials ruled a deep ball to Anthony Miller incomplete after Cre’Von LeBlanc ripped the ball free.
There was a review and the official on the field said there was no clear recovery, so the ruling would stand. That seems strange, because that basically admits it’s a completed pass but the ball doesn’t advance. It’s almost sounds like,”Hey, we don’t know what to do here, so forget it ever happened.”
But apparently that was the correct call:
“If there is no video evidence of a clear recovery or the ball goes out of bounds, the ruling of incomplete stands," the casebook reads.
The Bears ended up kicking a field goal at the end of the first half to take a 6-3 lead into the locker room. Strange play.
Here's the official ruling from the NFL:
