New Angle Shows NFL Ref Making One Of The Best Throws You’ll Ever See [VIDEO]
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.
An NFL ref showed off his arm during the divisional round clash between the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks on Saturday.
The Seahawks blew the Niners out on the back of an extra week’s rest and wasted no time getting on the board.
Wide receiver Rashid Shaheed put them ahead immediately with an opening kickoff touchdown. Shadeed ran for 95 yards after making the catch as kicker Eddie Pineiro tried his best to stop him.
Pineiro used a soccer move, attempting a sliding tackle on the wideout that would have probably earned him a red card. He missed completely but was still flagged.
A new angle has surfaced online showing the ref making an impressive throw.
Not only did he show off a cannon, the flag also landed right next to Pineiro.
Check it out in the video below:
“Same throw Caleb Williams made in Wild Card round haha,” one fan joked in the comments.

It was all downhill from there for San Francisco. They were restricted to just six points in the blowout.
Seahawks Move On, But Sam Darnold Isn’t At His Best
The Seahawks are moving on to face the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship Game, which is scheduled for Sunday.
Quarterback Sam Darnold has been suffering from an oblique injury that left him questionable ahead of Saturday’s tilt. He played through the pain and is doing better this week, though he has been limited in practice.
“He’s not going to be a full-go the whole week, so we have a plan; we’re going to work through it, see how the day goes and then we’ll kind of take it day by day and take it to tomorrow, “head coach Mike Macdonald said on Wednesday, per ESPN. “But he won’t be throwing every ball every play for the whole week, no.”
The Seahawks relied on their running game on Saturday because of the injury. Darnold only attempted 17 passes, completing 12 for 124 yards and a touchdown.
He is expected to play on Sunday.
