So, what actually is the rule? It would be nice to know. When can you hit the player? If it’s when the ball is parallel to the receiver using the goal line as the reference that was very very close.

Usually it’s when the ball gets to the receiver but that was weird because the ball was leading the receiver. I mean, it looks like a penalty but it would at least be nice to know how bang bang a call it was under the rule.

They really didn’t say.
The receiver never turned back for the ball, and both players have a right to make a play on the ball. I’m admittedly confused how that’s PI.

Edit: oops not sure we’re talking about the same play.

It's weird to me that they go back to 15 minute overtime periods in the playoffs.
