I know I had a couple cocktails before and after (more after), but did the referee not come on the mic and say the kickoff hit the pylon and by rule it is out of bounds, therefore, a penalty which placed the ball at the 35. CKW touched on it a little and he seemed a little confused by their call too.
I looked up the rule and believe the pylon , is indeed, considered out of bounds, but behind the goal line. Therefore, it is a touchback or should have been.
Did I not hear what he said correctly ?
