When Thomas went to the ground with the 1st down reception (which was initially called 4th down, just short of a 1st down), there were 42 seconds left. The replay assistant buzzed down at 26 seconds, and when the call was reversed, it called for a 10 second run-off. But the rule calls for the 10 second runoff from the end of the prior play. So the 10 second runoff should have been 10 seconds off of 42 seconds, not 10 seconds off 26 seconds. The Saints should've had 1st-and-10 with 32 seconds left.
"When there is a reversal, the clock is reset to the time the ball is declared dead under the reversed ruling, although, at minimum this will be no less time than is already on the clock. After that clock adjustment is made, if the reversed ruling has a running clock, there is a 10-second runoff applied."
