Ev Hand asks when Sean Payton's challenge flag counts

Sideline footage puts the flag in the air before Carolina's snap, but on the turf afterward.

The flag leaves Sean Payton's hand before the snap. It lands after it. That small gap gives Ev Hand plenty to examine in the most-watched of his fifteen uploads this week, a Panthers-Broncos Short approaching 913,000 views.

Hand reconstructs the sequence: Bryce Young throws a pass ruled incomplete, Chuba Hubbard carries the next play to the one-yard line, and officials then stop proceedings to allow Denver's challenge of the earlier pass. Sideline footage shows Payton releasing the flag before Carolina starts its next play.

That answers part of the timing question, but Hand finds another in the rulebook's wording about throwing a flag "onto the field of play." Does being airborne count, or must it have landed? Viewers are debating that distinction too. Others ask why a booth review wasn't involved, or focus on possible pass interference rather than the challenge itself.

The rest of the week offered more football stories beyond the score: Hand credited Nick Korte with helping prompt Cincinnati to back out of a Philadelphia trade, and covered Baker Mayfield's accusation that Chicago defenders imitated the quarterback's cadence. A Falcons-Ravens roster-mistake upload is also among the channel's strongest daily draws, while the Payton Short carries the most momentum.

The audience is growing: Hand added about 9,000 subscribers over the week, and daily views are a little above their usual level. Among nearby sports channels, sdpn and Dimes are also enjoying above-usual daily viewing, while ALL BALL BABY! is quieter. Hand's week, though, has a particularly specific center of gravity: a red flag caught between release and touchdown.

What viewers say

  • The other part is: why wasn't it a booth review? It seems like there are tons of those in other games, even outside of 2 minutes.

  • The act of throwing it equal to calling timeout
  • I think it’s a good ruling as he threw it before the snap
