October 21, 20178 yr Bombers miss the winning FG. Argos punt the ball out. I couldn’t see it but they said it was punted out of bounds. I thought punting out of bounds was illegal, other than inside the 20 yard line. Does anyone know if it landed in and bounced out?
October 21, 20178 yr Now why wasnt the illegal challenge a delay of game penalty. And why wasnt the supplex on dressler and ejection.
October 21, 20178 yr Medlock was too distraught from missing the kick to worry about trying to grab the ball again while it bounced out of bounds.

It was a perfect kick, really, and the Argos played the situation extremely well. They are playing quite well for Mark Trestman and I think he deserves credit for getting the Argos to where they are. They were also ready for our hurry-up and the few times we tried to catch them they were ready. Their one glaring weakness was a lack of discipline resulting in some bad penalties.

The in season turn around hamilton, toronto, and the riders have seen this year is incredible.

Even when he made that late one he looked like he was going to cry. Im assuming his mental toughness is high, but it sure didnt look like it yesterday.
October 22, 20178 yr I thought that he punted it straight out of bounds but it must have bounced. More stellar camera work from the boys at TSN I guess.

October 22, 20178 yr Earlier in the season, it was mentioned in a telecast that Medlock had been getting tips from the Rider Aussie kicker. Hmmm......

Because of the camera work I was wondering if it had gone straight out of bounds, but it had to have bounced awfully close to the sidelines and honestly when a guy punts on the run you have no idea how far that thing is going to go downfield.

Obviously I need a better TV set or a better imagination, TSN never showed the ball landing in any of their shots.

I saw someone on twitter mention the punt from the end zone can go out of bounds in the air, that the rules specifically state that it's illegal to punt out of bounds in the air between the 20's on a punt from scrimmage, so the punt out of the end zone wouldn't apply. I haven't verified any of that though. *edit* here's the phrasing from the rulebook "Punt Out of Bounds in Flight if a kick from scrimmage is found to have gone directly out of bounds between the 20 yard lines" Edited October 25, 20178 yr by brett_c_b

I have another rules question/point that I want to tag on here.... Argo is returning a missed field goal, still in the end zone and there is an illegal block up field, preventing that Argo being tackled in the end zone. I think, on that play, the Bombers should have gotten a point because the foul prevented a Bomber from tackling the Argo in the end zone.
