Dumb question

The Trevor Lawrence play that puzzled me was the spike at the end of the first half. They reviewed it to determine if the got the play off before the clock ran out. I was screaming at the TV because the review should have been whether the spike hit the ground before the clock ran out. I agree they snapped it right at zero, but the plays not over until the spike hits the ground, which was clearly on 0:00. There should not have been another play (field goal attempt.)
incept: I have never thought of it that way, but I agree with you. There should not be another play if the clock is showing zero.
 
In college he would be down, in the NFL he has to be touched otherwise he can get up and start running again.
Thanks, Don. I wasn't sure since it was the QB running once he went down, the play was over. I thought it might have something to do with protecting the QB from injury.
