DENVER (AP) — After C.J. Anderson bulled in for his second touchdown of the day, the Broncos celebrated.
(For the record, there are nine officials for NFL games, which would have made it 20 vs. 11.)
Bills safety Aaron Williams wasn't amused. After the game, he linked the video of the officials' reaction to a tweet that said: "No excuse for my performance, but can't win playing 16 vs 11 thought I'd seen it all. ..."
Moments after Anderson's 1-yard touchdown in the second quarter of Denver's 24-17 win over Buffalo on Sunday, line judge John Hussey and umpire Carl Paganelli fist bumped after making what turned out to be the correct call.
Then, the men gave each other a subtle, hip-high fist bump.
"It was an acknowledgment of good mechanics between the two officials involved in making the call," NFL spokesman Michael Signora said.
Indeed, it was a difficult call because Anderson bulled through the center of the line, making it hard for Hussey,NFL Jerseys China, standing on the sideline,NFL Jerseys China, to see if the ball had crossed the plane of the goal line before the runner's knee hit the turf.
