NFL Extra Week 3 NFL Extra Week 3 Segment TRT The Blackout 5:59 Unlikely Champions 11:42 01:30:50 – THE BLACKOUT WHY’D THE CLOCK STOP? WHY’D THE CLOCK STOP?! SOMEHOW A MASSIVE OUTAGE OF POWER IN NEW ORLEANS SUPERDOME HAS PUT THIS GAME ON HOLD. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE 49ERS SIDE OF THE SUPERDOME ARE OUT. DO YOU HAVE ELECTRICITY IN THE TRUCK? HALF OF IT’S OUT. THEY DON’T HAVE ANYTHING IN THE BOOTH. NOTHING IN THE BOOTH. NOTHING IN THE PRESS BOX. STILL NO OFFICIAL WORD. ALL THEY HAVE ON THE VIDEO SCOREBOARDS, SIGN OF THE OBVIOUS. WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A PARTIAL INTERRUPTION IN ELECTRICAL SERVICE. THANK YOU CAPTAIN OBVIOUS. PLEASE REMAIN IN YOUR SEATS. SERVICE WILL BE RESTORED MOMENTARILY. THE KEY WORD IS WHAT DOES MOMENTARILY MEAN? IT’S NOT LIKE IT’S A SUPER BOWL, RIGHT JEROME? HOW CAN IT HAPPEN AT THE SUPER BOWL. IT’LL MAKE IT A MEMORABLE ONE. ARE THEY GONNA POSTPONE THE GAME? NO, NO. THEY’RE GONNA PLAY THE GAME. THEY’RE GONNA BE HERE AS LONG AS IT TAKES. AS LONG AS IT TAKES. WE GOT A WHOLE NATION DYING TO KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON. WE’RE TRYING TO GET AS MUCH … AS POSSIBLE. IF WE CAN HAVE SOMEBODY FROM THE LEAGUE SIT ON THE SET AND REASSURE THE NATION THAT THE SUPER BOWL IS GOING TO GO ON IN NICE FASHION BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE’RE LOSING EYEBALLS AND YOU’RE LOSING EYEBALLS. FLACCO – ARE THEY GONNA SHOW BAD SUPER BOWL COMMERCIALS NOW OR WHAT? I’VE BEEN PAYING ATTENTION TO THE PLAYERS FROM THE BALTIMORE RAVENS. RIGHT NOW THEY ARE VERY MUCH BEWILDERED. THEY’RE ASKING QUESTIONS. WHAT’S GOING ON? A ZILLION DOLLAR COMPANY. AIN’T NO WAY. Page 1 of 7 IT’S CRAZY, ISN’T IT? WHAT ARE THEY SAYING? WELL THEY GOT THE GRID COMING BACK ON. THEY’RE GETTING IT BACK ON? IT’S ON THE POWER GRID THING. IT’S ACTUALLY A PRETTY GOOD VISUAL RIGHT HERE LIKE THIS. THAT’S FINE. FOR TV IT’S BAD THOUGH. BUT FOR US, WE COULD EASILY PLAY. THIS IS WAY BETTER THAN OUR PRACTICE. WE’RE LOOKING AT AT LEAST 20 MINS. O.K. 20 MINS. ON A RESET. THEY’VE LOST EVERYTHING IN NFL CONTROL. 20 MIN. DELAY. 20 MINS.?! ….20 MIN. DELAY. YEA BUT GET YOUR MIND READY. WE’RE PLAYING. WE DID THIS SO MANY TIMES AT PRACTICE. SITTING AROUND, THEN YOU GOTTA GO RUN FAST. WE’RE TRAINED FOR THIS. PLAYERS NOW BEGINNING TO REALIZE THIS MAY BE A LITTLE BIT OF A DELAY. NO QUESTION THIS IS GOING TO AFFECT THE MOMENTUM OF THIS GAME. THIS GONNA GO DOWN IN HISTORY. THEN WE’RE GONNA COME BACK. THEN THEY’RE GONNA BE TALKING ABOUT, “DID THE LIGHTS HELP THE GUYS COME BACK? O.K. STOP OUR MOMENTUM. TURN ON THE LIGHTS! LET’S GO BABY. TURN BACK ON THE LIGHTS! WHAT ABOUT THE MOMENTUM? I MEAN YOU GUYS GET THE BIG KICK RETURN. THAT DOESN’T MATTER. YOU’RE NOT WORRIED? NO. WHAT WOULD YOU DO RIGHT NOW? YOU GOT ANY IDEAS FOR ME? WHAT WOULD I DO? MAYBE CALL MY GUYS TOGETHER AND TELL THEM, HEY, SOONER OR LATER WE’RE GONNA HAVE A GAME TO PLAY. WE’RE GONNA HAVE TO GO HIT SOMEBODY IN THE MOUTH. THAT’S A GOOD IDEA. BUT, HEY, YOU GOT THIS THING. I LIKE THAT. I LIKE IT A LOT. THEY’RE SAYING IT MIGHT BE UP IN 15 MINS. 15 MINS. O.K. AND IF IT GOES LONGER WE CAN’T GO IN THE LOCKER ROOM BECAUSE THE LOCKER ROOM’S ALL BLACK. SO THEY’RE GONNA KEEP US OUT HERE FOR WHATEVER HAPPENS. WE’RE GONNA WIN THIS GAME NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES. NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES. NOT EVEN A POWER OUTAGE. KEEP STRETCHING! KEEP HYDRATING! HOW THE HELL DOES THIS HAPPEN? THIS IS INSANE. YEA BUT THEIR HEADSETS ARE OUT AND THEY’RE TRYING TO MAKE OURS BE OUT TOO. HERE’S OUR ARGUMENT, O.K. FIRST OF ALL I DON’T THINK IT’S GONNA BE AN ISSUE BECAUSE THE LIGHTS ARE GONNA COME BACK ON AND THE PHONES ARE GONNA COME BACK ON. IF THE PHONES DON’T COME ON, THIS IS REGULAR SEASON, HOME FIELD VISITING TEAM PROCESS. WE GET THE VISITING .. WE GET TULANE. WE GET THE VISITING FIELD, O.K. SO IT SHOULD COMPLY TO EVERYTHING. SIDELINES ARE SEPARATE. BECAUSE ONE SIDE PHONES GO OFF IN A REGULAR SEASON, YOU DON’T SHUT THE OTHER SIDE OFF. SO WE’RE THE VISITING TEAM. OUR PHONES ARE INTACT. WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO KEEP OUR PHONES. THIS SHOULD GO TO ROGER TO MAKE A DECISION. COACH-TO-COACH HEADSETS. IF ONE TEAM LOSES POWER THEN BOTH ARE OUT. HOME/AWAY, IT DOESN’T MATTER. IS THAT DURING THE REGULAR SEASON? THAT’S THE REGULAR SEASON RULE. COACH-TO-QB IS A DIFFERENT DEAL. SO ARE WE GOING TO GET OUR COORDINATORS DOWN FROM THE PRESS BOX NOW? YOU GONNA GIVE US TIME TO DO THAT? WELL WE’RE TRYING TO GET THEM FIRE-UP. BECAUSE WE GOTTA GET…OUR 2 COORDINATORS ARE IN THE PRESS BOX RIGHT NOW, UNLIKE Page 2 of 7 THEIRS. SO WE’LL BE AT A DISADVANTAGE IF YOU DO THAT. THAT’S A DECISION YOU’LL HAVE TO MAKE. WELL YOU GOTTA GIVE US TIME TO GET THEM DOWN HERE TILL YOU TAKE OUR HEADSETS OFF BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE COORDINATOR MAKING THE CALL. WELL RIGHT NOW YOUR HEADSETS ARE OUT. SO I’M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW THEY’RE OUT. DO YOU WANT ME TO GET MY COORDINATORS DOWN HERE? ARE THEY GONNA GO BACK UP? THAT’S GONNA BE UP TO YOU. SEE, MIKE, THIS IS BULL… ONCE AGAIN. YOU’RE TELLING ME NOTHING AND YOU KNOW YOU’RE TELLING ME NOTHING. WE’RE GONNA WIN THE GAME ANYWAY. GOTTA FIGHT FOR WHAT’S RIGHT MAN. GOTTA FIGHT FOR WHAT’S RIGHT. HEY, WE’RE GETTIN’ CLOSE. THE LIGHTS ARE COMING ON SO START GETTING READY TO GO. HEY BRING, I WANT TO GET EVERYBODY UP HERE. LET’S GET EVERYBODY UP. HEY, THERE AIN’T NO MOUNTAIN HIGH ENOUGH AND THERE AIN’T NO VALLEY LOW ENOUGH, AND THERE’S NOTHING THAT’S GONNA KEEP US FROM WINNING THIS CHAMPIONSHIP. NOT THIS AND NOT NOTHING. WE’RE GONNA WIN THIS GAME NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES. ALRIGHT THEY’RE BOOTING UP. NO, NO…THE HEADSETS ARE BOOTING UP? GOOD. GOOD. ARE YOUR HEADPHONES WORKING? YEA. I’M LETTING YOU TALK FIRST. I’M GLAD MY WHOLE ARGUMENT, WHICH WAS ACTUALLY A REALLY GOOD ARGUMENT, WAS MOOT. WE NOW RESUME THE SUPER BOWL. RADIO – PLAY’S GOING TO RESUME HERE IN THE NEXT MINUTES. SO IT’S GONNA BE A DELAY IN A LITTLE EXCESS OF 34 MINS. THIS IS ONE THEY DIDN’T ANTICIPATE. IT’S AMAZING HOW MANY THINGS CAN GO WRONG. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? A MILLION THINGS CAN GO WRONG. FOOTBALL, EVENTS. LET’S JUST WIN THE GAME. 01:37:00 – UNLIKELY CHAMPIONS THE PATH TO A SUPER BOWL IS PAVED WITH MANY STORIES. STORIES OF HARDSHIP AND STRUGGLE…OF TIMING…AND TRIUMPH. HARBAUGH - YOU KNOW WHAT, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT? IT’S A FOOTBALL GAME. THAT’S ALL IT IS FOR US. IT’S NOT SUPPOSED TO KICK IN. SOME STORIES NEED A KICK START…JUSTIN TUCKER’S BEGAN ONE YEAR EARLIER. RADIO – SO HERE’S BILLY CUNDIFF. THE SEASON ON THE LINE. KICK ON THE WAY. IT IS LONG ENOUGH AND IT’S NO GOOD!! HE HOOKED IT WIDE TO THE LEFT!! TUCKER - KICKERS. OUR JOB DESCRIPTION. THE KICKS ARE EITHER GOOD OR THEY’RE NOT. AND FOR ME THAT MEANS THE GAME CAN COME DOWN TO MY FOOT. TEXAS, TEXAS A&M THANKSGIVING NIGHT AND THEY SET ME UP FOR A 40 YD. F.G. DOWN BY 1. I GET TO BE THE GUY TO PUT THE DAGGER IN THAT 120 YEAR RIVALRY. RADIO – JUSTIN TUCKER FROM 40 YDS. OUT FOR THE GAME! IT’S UP! THE LONGHORNS WIN IT! Page 3 of 7 THAT WAS MY FIRST GAME-WINNING F.G. DID THE WHOLE SOCCER STYLE CELEBRATION. IT WAS A CRAZY, FUN EXPERIENCE. TUCKER’S HEROICS CAME AGAINST TEXAS A&M HEAD COACH MIKE SHERMAN…THE SAME MIKE SHERMAN WHO SEVEN YEARS EARLIER GAMBLED ON AN UNDRAFTED LINEBACKER-TURNED-FULLBACK NAMED VONTA LEACH. VONTA – MIKE SHERMAN WAS THE HEAD COACH AND THE G.M. HE SAID, “HEY, AFTER THE FIRST TIME I SEEN YOU AFTER THE FIRST PRACTICE OF MINICAMP, HELL I WAS GONNA CUT YOU BUT SOMETHING JUST TOLD ME JUST STICK WITH YOU, AND YOU’RE ONE OF MY MOST IMPROVED GUYS.” HE BELIEVED IN ME ENOUGH NOW JUST TO GIVE ME THE OPPORTUNITY WITH G.B. MIKE SHERMAN WAS THE REASON THAT I PLAYED WITH HOUSTON. HE LOOKS GOOD IN THE RED. AFTER BEING CUT BY THE PACKERS IN 2006, LEACH SIGNED WITH SHERMAN AND THE TEXANS. RADIO – A HUGE COLLISION WITH VONTA LEACH. IN HOUSTON, LEACH’S COLLISIONS ON THE FIELD EARNED HIM PRO BOWL HONORS. IN GEORGIA, A COLLISION OF A DIFFERENT KIND NEARLY COST DANNELL ELLERBE HIS FOOTBALL CAREER. ELLERBE - I MEAN LEGALLY I WAS DRUNK. SO I MEAN I WAS DRUNK. THAT’S WHEN I HIT A TREE. I GOT A PICTURE OF THE CAR. IT WAS ..IT WAS LIKE, “WE DON’T SEE HOW YOU MADE IT OUT OF THERE.” IT WAS JUST SOMETHING THAT WOKE ME UP.

  • NFL: 2013 Official Playing Rules of the National Football League
    2013 OFFICIAL PLAYING RULES OF THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE Roger Goodell, Commissioner Preface This edition of the Official Playing Rules of the National Football League contains all current rules governing the playing of professional football that are in effect for the 2013 NFL season. Member clubs of the League may amend the rules from time to time, pursuant to the applicable voting procedures of the NFL Constitution and Bylaws. Any intra-League dispute or call for interpretation in connection with these rules will be decided by the Commissioner of the League, whose ruling will be final. Because interconference games are played throughout the preseason, regular season, and postseason in the NFL, all rules contained in this book apply uniformly to both the American and National Football Conferences. At many places in the text there are approved rulings which serve to supplement and illustrate the basic language of the rules. Each is headed by an abbreviation, followed by a number (e.g. “A.R. 3.20”). The letter “A” in an approved ruling indicates the team that puts the ball in play, and its opponents are designated by the letter “B.” Whenever a team is in possession of the ball, it is the offense, and at such time its opponent is the defense. Yard lines and players are indicated by numerals. Thus, for example: “A.R. 5.1 Third-and-10 on A30. During a run prior to an intended pass by quarterback A1, defensive player B1 holds flanker A2 on the A45…” Where the word “illegal” appears in this rule book, it is an institutional term of art pertaining strictly to actions that violate NFL playing rules.

  • Coaching Special Teams 126 Coaching Youth Football Coaching Special Teams 127
    8 Coaching Special Teams 126 Coaching Youth Football Coaching Special Teams 127 ll phases of the kicking segments of a football game are referred to as “special teams.” Just as you teach the offensive and defensive segments to Ayour team, you also will coach all phases of the kicking game. At times, players focus more on their duties on offense and defense and downplay their roles as special teams players. However, special teams are an integral part of a successful football team, and you, as the coach, must remind all players that their contribution on special teams is just as important as their contribution on offense and defense. Kicking-Game Rules The following are special rules that apply only to special teams and should be taught to players as you coach the different phases of the kick- ing game: • A player signals a fair catch by extending an arm above the head and waving it from side to side. The receiving player cannot hit or be hit after a fair catch, and the ball cannot be advanced after the catch. • The kicking team may down the football after the ball has hit the ground. • No one on either team may block below the waist. • No player on the receiving team may touch the punter or kicker unless the receiving team has blocked the kick or the kicker runs with the ball. • A field goal is a scrimmage kick and uses the same rules as the punt. • On a kickoff, after the ball has traveled 10 yards, it is a free ball and either team can gain possession of it.
