Quote:Uh why did they pick that flag up?!

 

Because the referee is an idiot.

 

Quote:Boooooooo.  That reversed pass interfence call screwed this game up.

 

The Cowboys can thank Pete Morelli for winning.

 

Quote:The refs "owe" the Lions a call, in all honesty.

 

They owe the Lions an apology and explanation for picking up the flag.

 

Quote:No kidding...they got robbed.

 

I hope players and coaches say that publicly even if they get fined for it.

 

Quote:LOL, There's no doubt it was shady that they didn't explain the reason why the picked up the flag. No doubt

 

That and picking up the flag after announcing the penalty should give Morelli an automatic downgrade on top of the simple fact he did pick it up.

 

This penalty reversal will be up there with "the tuck rule" on the list of most infamous officiating errors. Lions fans are probably going to name it.
