[QUOTE="morningwood, post: 421914, member: 2110"] Not every fumble results in a change of possession. If you read the following, which was taken from the above quoted article, you might have a better understanding: “Referee Tony Corrente ruled the play was a fumble and a recovery by Detroit,” [I][B]the league said[/B][/I] in a statement emailed Sunday night to PFT. “However, during the play and before Detroit recovered the fumble, another official blew the whistle believing it was an incomplete pass. [B][U] Because the ruling on the field was a fumble, and the whistle came before the recovery, the play is dead because of the inadvertent whistle and the Saints should have retained possession of the ball. New Orleans would then have had the choice to put the ball in play at the spot where possession was lost or to replay the down[/U][/B]. Inadvertent whistles are not reviewable.” [/QUOTE]
