Football fans are accustomed to mind-boggling mistakes by the NFL refs every week, but we have truly never seen anything like what transpired in the Pittsburgh Steelers-Buffalo Bills game on Sunday.
Jaylen Warren opened the scoring with a one-yard touchdown run midway through the second quarter. After the play, Steelers wide receiver D.K. Metcalf was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct, meaning it should have been a longer extra point try for kicker Chris Boswell.
But the NFL refs made the mistake of asking Bills head coach Sean McDermott if he wanted to a) enforce the 15-yard penalty on the extra point or b) on the ensuing Steelers’ kickoff.
The Bills obviously chose the latter to get better field position. But as rules analyst Gene Steratore explained, the Bills should not have had the option. There is no rule that allows NFL teams to enforce the penalty two plays after the infraction:

That forced Boswell to kick off from his own 20-yard line, and Ray Davis returned the ball to the Bills’ 31. They ended the drive with a short Matt Prater field goal.
As if the officiating in the Houston Texans’ controversial win over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday wasn’t bad enough.
