Forward progress is the name of an NFL play where the ball carrier is stopped from advancing the football. To prevent injuries, officials frequently whistle the play dead. and anything that happens after the whistle blows is ignored.
But the Los Angeles Rams have to be getting frustrated with quick whistles, as they have lost at least two fumble recoveries, thanks to the referee ruling forward progress.
And that has begun to frustrate head coach Sean McVay, and he was more than irate with what went down in the Week 6 bout against the Baltimore Ravens:
Ravens lose the ball on this goal line play, but forward progress stopped the play.
