What happened: Officials ruled Jared Goff had started his throwing motion, turning the apparent loose ball into an incomplete pass. The possession ended with a punt after the review.

Why it matters: The call mattered because a fumble ruling would have created an immediate turnover chance. Instead, the sequence became a change of possession by punt, shifting the impact from a sudden takeaway to field position.

What to watch: Watch for any further league clarification if the ruling draws postgame questions.
