The Baltimore Ravens shell shocked the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night in a surprising blowout that was made a little bit more competitive thanks to umpire Alex Moore. The official had every single one of his nightmares come to life during the primetime matchup when he tripped and fell in the endzone while Lamar Jackson was running away from 49ers defenders—leading to the star quarterback falling and having to throw the ball away. Because of the last-second throw, Jackson was flagged for intentional grounding and it was ruled a safety.

Moore gifted San Francisco two points on the Christmas Day game and the internet couldn’t stop laughing at the hilarious sequence. Still, Baltimore came away with the 33–19 win and Jackson had a classy message for Moore afterward. 

“He came back and apologized, like, ‘My bad,’ but it’s all good,” Jackson told reporters after the win. “It’s all good. But those two points helped them out a lot.” 

Jackson also maintained that he would have escaped the pressure had it not been for Moore’s tumble. Thankfully, the points didn’t mean much in the grand scheme of things with Baltimore dominating the game from start to finish to improve to 12–3 while San Francisco fell to 11–4.
