People talk about that drop like it was an easy catch. If he made that catch it would have been the catch of the day he was outstretched and the ball had a lot of heat on it to get it by ET and Kam. I would say more than half the receivers in the league aren't even in that position to make that catch. Kupp is a baller

I agree with your comments, that being said I'm sure Cooper Kupp would like that one back, literally a couple of lousy inches and we're talking what a driveand comeback

C'est la vie

Pretty observant. I went back and looked at the play, and he was down, tackled and on his back at 2:43. Good chance the play clock would have started at 2:41. But dang, that's a lot of calculations to do in that short frame of time. Really easy to do in hindsight with a pause button! LOL

They should have projections already on a cheat sheet. Having another coach following the time and letting him know when to call time out.

But if the playclock would have started at 2:41:

1st down - 2:46 down to 2:42
2nd down - would have had to snap the ball at 2:01 - 2:01 down to 1:56 (two minute warning
3rd down - 1:56 down to 1:51 (timeout Rams)
FG - 1:51 down to 1:46
Rams get the ball with 1:46 left in the game

That's cutting it close but, it wouldn't have hurt to wait at that point to see when the clock started. It's in the details and giving yourself the most time possible is what you strive for.
