Did you not see what I posted?
I just re watched it..
Whistle blows, clock starts almost right away...Then the guys have to be in their stance for 1 secs
So that is at 8 seconds
Matt doesnt get the ball until the 3 sec mark..
So if anything Matt waited 5 secs to call for the snap, or EDS waited to long to snap it,..
As Matt is waiting for the ball, the ref runs back to matt to say something and that was prob the clock is running
According to
McCarthy, umpire Undrey Wash kept center Evan Dietrich-Smith from being able to snap the ball as soon as the clock started running with 10 seconds remaining, following the 10-second runoff the Packers absorbed because of a false start penalty.
“I wish the officiating mechanics were intact,” McCarthy said Monday. “I think it's clear to everybody, it doesn't take 10 seconds to throw a (pass off a) three-step drop.”
McCarthy said
Wash told Dietrich-Smith he was not allowed to snap the ball until Wash pointed to him. Looking at the replay of the final 10 seconds, not only
doesn’t Wash point to Dietrich-Smith after the whistle blows and the clock stars, but it looks like the reason Cheffers runs into the play with about 5 seconds left is to tell Wash he needed to point to Dietrich-Smith.
Replay showed that
Wash finally pointed at Dietrich-Smith with 4 seconds to go, and the ball was finally snapped with 3 seconds to go.
“Those are questions probably more for the officials department,” McCarthy said. “The referee and the umpire need to be on the same page as far as the way the umpire stands over the ball, he backs out, the coordination of the referee starting the clock. Dietrich(-Smith) was informed, don't snap the ball until the umpire pointed at him. The umpire pointed at him at 3 seconds.
"If you watch the game, obviously we were all up in arms about it after the game. But if you go back and watch the video, I think it's clear exactly what happened.
