The one good thing, explained the commentator, was that the fumble out of bounds stopped the clock. But then the clock started again, and nobody on the field seemed to be aware of the situation. The clock expired, the ball snapped, Cliff Avril sacked Ryan Tannehill and it never was going to be a safety, but still, you know?
I think the clock was supposed to be running. But it seems as if nobody else did in the moment. It seemed a strangely appropriate end.
Week one. Chaos and confusion don’t necessarily reign, per se, but still. You know?
