STACKED’s take

NeutralMatchup

Goff's sack-fumble ruled incomplete on forward-pass technicality vs. Saints.

In the second quarter against the Saints, Goff was sacked by Chase Young with the ball jarring loose; officials reviewed and ruled it an incomplete forward pass rather than a backward pass/fumble because Goff had already begun his throwing motion when contact occurred, per NFL Rule 3, Section 21, Article 3. The ruling gave Detroit new life in a game they would win by building a 21-point lead.
