With that said. The officiating was pure garbage yesterday. Lee was clearly popped as a defenseless receiver and the flag was thrown. Instead, they picked it up and then issue the penalty on him for dancing like an idiot. At the minimum, you negate the play entirely and repeat the down.

Towards the end of the game when that fumble was picked up and returned for a game winning touchdown. Again, he wasn't touched by a Charger in my mind. I didn't see any clear cut evidence to suggest that he was. And the ruling on the field was a touchdown. It should have been game over right there. Instead, they botch a call once again.

Then lastly. Bouye with what should have been a pick six in overtime to end it for good. At one point he extended his arm with the football in his hands. That little move or gesture was probably the difference with him getting it into the end zone instead of being stopped at the one yard line. In this case, we score, and I believe even if we do get flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct the game is still over since that penalty would only go into effect on the next drive. So either the extra point attempt or kick-off.

Either way. It's over. We won the game. That's all that matters. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. In this case. We were both on defense. But it was nice to see us win despite the poor officiating in this game. And like others have said. I do hope and pray we don't see this crew again. Especially in week seventeen if the division is on the line.
