Santana Moss Had to Be Restrained After Blowing Up On Ref Following RGIII Call, Gets Ejected

The referees made the right call on a would-be touchdown to end the first half of the Redskins-Giants game, ruling that Robert Griffin did not regain possession inbounds after losing control of the football and therefore did not score.

Santana Moss wasn’t interested in any slow motion replays, letting referee Jeff Triplette know exactly how he feels about him and his correct decision making:

Triplette had some trouble getting that flag out:

You're OU– wait
You're OUTTA– dammit

The consensus on the RGIII run is pretty clear:

RG3 never repossessed the ball so this play is a touchback. It's like catching a pass.

As i said on the broadcast, RGIII needs to repossess it after the ball comes loose. It's like catching a pass.

In #WASvsNYG RG3 clearly lost control of the ball before GL. It's a fumble. To regain possession he has to hold onto it when he lands.
