There was another one this weekend where they called a face mask penalty and the defender clearly only touched the guy’s jersey…I think it was in the Detroit game.  It gave Detroit 7 unearned points.

How in the actual **** can you walk into a playoff game so unprepared as an NFL official that you don't know what you are about to see?

 

Maybe if they instituted a fine for terrible calls like that one as they do for players when they make a egregious penalty they might be a bit more hesitant to make a bad call and raise their standards a bit .

 

I saw on a pregame show they had a retired official trying to candy coat some of the calls made against the ones that hit (If you could call it that) Mahomes in their game as the refs interpretation . Which at game speed and the fact that some QB's (Josh included) have learned to use their body language to influence some calls .

 

But they should allow a booth ref to revue every call and if a mistake on a penalty call (like the Dawkins one) is corrected because some very big games could be & have been influenced by those bad calls !!

I pointed out on the game thread that there have been other calls this year, not all involving the Bills, where an O lineman swats down the hands of the defender, and gets called for holding.  As I posted, the league should have made sure its part-time employees all got the memo that this isn't a penalty.

 

But maybe it is supposed to be a penalty, and all fans and all announcers and all players simply don't understand the rule.

 

Time to pull out Occam's Razor and see what makes the most sense.
