No. Baltimore led by 3 with a couple seconds left. Cleveland attempted a FG. It hit the upright, then bounced over the crossbar, but hit the support that holds up the goalposts, and BOUNCED BACK THRU the uprights, on to the field.
The blind officials originally called it no good, and game over.
Then they reviewed it (which, according to NFL rules is not allowed), and the head ref came back and said "upon further DISCUSSION (not review), the kick went thru the uprights and the kick is good", or something along those lines.
Game goes to OT, CLE wins the coin toss, marches down the field, and scores.
My complaint wasn't that the FG was good, because it was, but that BAL was already in the locker room celebraing a win....then they were made to come back on the field and play?
They have NOT 1, BUT 2 REFS standing by the goalposts and they couldn't see if the ball went over the crossbar or not?
Bull****.
