Does anyone know why the NFL is crediting the Rams with a sack on that play where Rivers took the snap, pitched it to a receiver who pitched it to Allen, who slowed, looked to pass, then pulled it down and tried to run? Why would it be a sack when the player wasn't a QB, didn't take the snap and on an option? Should have just been a run for loss IMO.
As I understand it, since he was a passer on that play, the fact that he pulls it down and runs is the same with a qb. The passer is sacked if tackled behind the LOS, whether he has pulled the ball down or not. Since Allen was a passer on that play, that's what counts.
