Can officiating in the NFL get any worse? Since when could you snap the ball after the play clock had been at 0 for a full second, maybe even two! My only guess is Ray Lewis threatened to stab somebody. Obviously Tennessee put itself in a bad situation with those turnovers, but a mistake like that (Baltimore's subsequent completion was the key to their game-winning drive) by the officials is inexcusable. I can understand that certain judgment calls are difficult for officials, but how can you make a mistake like that with the clock? I bet next year, coaches will be allowed to challenge the play clock.
More thoughts on this game later.

Three redzone turnovers decided that game, not one extra second running off of the play clock.
I'm disappointed in you, Stout. Happy that we disagree, happy that I'm right again, disappointed that you chose this.
Tsk!
The Titans were destined to lose that game with all those turnovers, but that's not the point. Baltimore may have converted a 3rd and 7, and maybe they wouldn't have. The point is the Titans deserved to have the rules actually ... you know ... enforced.
