What was the deal with that safety?

[HuskerinSunDiego]

I only caught the tail end of the safety (I had switched to another game for a second). What was the deal with it? What the heck was our player doing?

[Nobody]

he wasn't thinking. he hit the ball out of the back of the endzone resulting in a safety. once the ball is touched by one of our players, the ball is live.

Here a stat you don't get to say often, our LB is -10 yds avg in punt return.

Pretty sure his back was turned to the play and he had no idea it was a punt. If you watch the play, at the very end he makes a punting motion and an "oh crap" face. I just think he thought it was a pass and was knocking it away.

After my initial reaction of "WTF just happened", after looking at the replay I think he honestly thought it was a pass and batted it away. They did line up as if they were going for it.

This. And bo alluded to such in the presser. He didnt see ot kicked as they kine up in normal oofensive formation. And thats what initially thoight too. Since he was man coverage, he was running with the receiver with his back to the play.
