0 = 1?

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.
