It’s nice to finally see some NFL refs get on the same page.

These synchronized refs did their best version of “The Safety Dance” when Travis Benjamin danced backwards for one of the worst safeties you’re likely to see.

The lack of awareness on this return is something else. How do you move that far backwards and still not know where the end zone is? That takes skill. Of course, the refs do the safety signal at the precise same moment took skill as well.
