    If Marshawn Lynch fall down at the 1 yard would the game have been over then?

    Provided he takes an extra second to do so? It would have put the clock at 2:39 so Seattle would not have to run a play before the 2 minute warning and NO was out of time outs so Seattle just kneels down to end the game. There is no mention on this anywhere. Am I missing something?

    How? It's a 40 second play clock. It's 2 minutes with no time outs for New Orleans. 3 snaps and the game is over.

    He crossed the goal line with 2:40 and may have been able to burn a second and fallen. Surprised no one mentioned it.

    haha exactly but it slipped past the commentators and most of the writers as well. I have found no mention of it anywhere.

    True. Looking at the play I wonder if New Orleans let him score.

    Ahh Thanks Chi Archie I didn't see that and your point is a good one. Hard to tell a guy to be that aware given the situation but yea it could have been over then.

    Not by the Saints or Seahawks. They were trying to advance.
