Is terrible today

First he calls an INT when Quan Crosby makes a great catch after deflecting the pass in the air then coming down with it

He then says a QB can cross the LOS and go back behind it and throw a pass..That is a rule I have never heard of

Franklin just seems very distracted or something

One of my all-time favorites, but he had a bad day Saturday. Lots of missed calls & misspoken words, which is out of the norm for him.

He worked at NBC & CBS in Houston, did the Oilers, etc. when I was growing up. Class act too. He almost died last year in a car wreck near Bastrop. Shake it off Ron!

Once you cross the LOS, cannot go back & throw a pass. He was wrong. You are correct.
