NFL tells Commanders that DPI should have been called on final play in loss to Giants in Week 15 per report

Washington's Week 15 lo s to the ended in controversy as it appeared that the officials mi sed a blatant pa s interference penalty on the ' final offensive play. Now, the league is acknowledging the mistake. The NFL told the team Robert Quinn Jersey this week that officials should have flagged New York corner for defensive pa s interference on wideout in the end zone, according to .Holmes had his arms draped around Samuel on a fourth-and-6 attempt with 56 seconds remaining in regulation. The ball fell incomplete and no flag was thrown. At that point, the Giants kneeled twice and moved on to the 20-12 victory. Had the penalty been called, the Commanders would have had another opportunity to try and tie the game with a touchdown and two-point conversion. This is SO obvious how can a $15B busine s mi s this defensive pa s interference in a game with the biggest swing in Connor Barwin Jersey playoff odds of the season Will Brinson (@WillBrinson) In the pool report, referee John Hu sey said of the non-call: "Pa s interference is a judgment call. To the officials it didn't rise to what they felt was a Andrew Whitworth Jersey restriction, thus they didn't call it. That's basically the bottom line there." That mi sed call was one of a handful of questionable decisions by officials in this game. On the same play that defensive pa s interference wasn't called, Giants edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux appeared to catch some hands to the face. Not just on his facemask, but through the bars and Jacob McQuaide Jersey into his eyes. He was unable to continue on the play and immediately went to a knee. Had both been flagged, penalties would have offset and the Commanders would have been able to run another offensive play.Earlier, rookie receiver was called for offensive pa s interference in the third quarter that erased a two-point conversion by Washington. Just two plays before that mi sed DPI call, was flagged for illegal formation, despite video replay seemingly showing the veteran pa s-catcher confirming with the official that called in for the infraction that he was lined up legally. While the admi sion that DPI should have been called is justifying for Washington Alec Ogletree Jersey , it still doesn't make up for the lo s that sent them to 7-6-1 and now has them clinging to the No. 7 seed in the NFC.
