As each second ticked down to zero, down to a sixth consecutive loss, the team's fourth loss in six weeks on the final play, another baffling, astonishing way to lose a game, everyone was left wondering: What the heck happened? How did this happen?
I was just trying to get on the ball as fast as I can, Shelton said. I heard the play call so I was trying to get up there and do what we do.
The goal, head coach Matt Eberflus said, was to run a play with 18 seconds left on the clock, throw a pass inbounds, call a timeout and kick the game-tying field goal.
A wild end to this one; these are once-in-a-blue-moon type things, wide receiver DJ Moore said, highlighting the strange and unusual circumstances of the loss.
