Either way it is over and his actions were not detrimental to the team. Off sides, penalty declined, PAT Good. At least he didn't take a nap in the endzone using the football as a pillow.

Because...that's insane.

Look it's easily to deflect whats happening. Maybe the professionalism issue that Shanahan hid so well in Denver from the MSM, and that Hall displayed throughout his career (which was more justifiable, IMO, when he was straight out of college) finally took it's rightful place here in Washington. And now whenever Shanahan wants to be a total douche, he can put a signal up in the sky for his lackey DeAngelo to go run on the field and delay the game, all in the name of competitive spirit.

That's possible. Or maybe Hall got beat, convinced himself that he actually recovered and prevented the completion of the catch, and then even though the visual evidence said: no, that didn't happen, he took it upon himself to delay the game until they could review something pretty cut and dry. Either could have happened, I suppose.

Except no, that did not come from the bench.

Yes because Pro football and all those involved are a model of sanity. C'mon, they are all nutz!

I don't honestly believe that Shannahan instructed it, but he didn't seem too pissed about it either. If the coach can shrug it off then it isn't a big deal. You seem to be taking what he did extra personal. Like he came over to your house polished off your beer and kicked his feet up on the table.
