The Hitchens penalty was really really weird.
I'm rewatching on Game Pass. Holy hell the announcers and refs had a TERRIBLE game. Sequence of events on the Hitchens penalty and ejection:
Am I missing something? I remember the announcers complaining about Hitchens ejection not being announced. I think they edited it out of the gamepass broadcast. Sneaky devils. So what this means is the refs waited until the end of the 3rd Q - replayed the hit, saw that Hitchens didn't start it. And still decided to eject him. For slapping at the ball then hugging it out. ![]() OMG look how violent. ![]() Hitchens still on the field the play after the penalty. |

Terrell Suggs, Ray Lewis and Bubba Smith thinking "something was going on" is smoke?

This has obviously been thoroughly discussed in the thread, but the clock doesn't run after a declined penalty inside 5 minutes, and it wasn't running when he snapped the ball. It's an odd, special-case of the rule, but it's legit and was called correctly.

It was strange watching the play clock run and then the game clock tick from 9 to 8 seconds on the TV broadcast.
Then a penalty? So strange. Clock was running. Ref ducked up! |

For what it's worth, Arrowhead Pride had a nice writeup about the rule itself and why it exists. As one example of where you could take advantage of this if the rule didn't exist:

Could be wrong, but I don't think so. I certainly can't find anything about it on the interwebs outside of this thread.
If he wasn't on the field, it's probably just because he was still pretty banged up, and the game was well in hand. |

Combination of that and believing he threw a punch. I doubt he was ejected and would instead believe he was pulled
