Hey guys. I was interested to see if anyone else caught this mistake by the refs.

In the last 3 minutes of the game, the head ref said to reset the game clock from 2:02 to 2:43. It would have given the Dolphins :41 extra seconds at the end of the game. Granted they still would have lost, why didn't they adjust the clock? It stayed at 2:02 and went straight to the two minute warning. Did anyone else notice this?
 
They did adjust the clock. The clock was at 2:19 when the ref told the clock keeper to reset it to 2:43. Then the clock was whistled to start & the Bucs used the entire play clock & took the delay of game penalty at 2:02. The clock stopped then they punted.
 
they adjusted it, however it was supposed to start because the play stayed inbounds and by the time the playclock ran down and welker fielded the punt it was at two minutes.
 
Well I didn't get to see it because CBS freaking took the game off after we rushed it to Ricky on 4th and goal and put on the Jackonsville/Pittsburgh game... so I didn't get to anything after that. I missed the Ronnie Brown TD. Thanks a lot CBS and Direct TV... anyway if that did happen, that's really inexcusable... it cost Pittsburgh the game a few weeks back and even though the game was pretty well out of hand, there's no excuses for something like to be happening.
