Anyone Else Think The Bills Got Robbed?
And I'm a Dolphins fan. But I mean, come on. Sure looked like the NFL desperately wanted the Eagles to win that game. The most obvious horse collar tackle, ripping Josh Allen's jersey, in all of football history is a non call? Wow.

So the defense got the benefit of the doubt on a play on the QB for once? I think I'll let this one slide. ;)
Anyways, the dangerousness of a horse collar generally happens when you pull a guy down from behind, as you're chasing him from behind, forcing his upper body to bend backwards onto his lower body. Looks like the defender had him in the grasp from the front, and......Josh Allen is a big boy....so he reached around to the back to get him all the way down. Not necessarily the spirit of why a horse-collar tackle was deemed illegal to begin with. BTW, from what I can tell, the front of his jersey was ripped. The horse collar rule is focused on the back of the uniform. I can see why Bills fans might be upset, and they've had a disappointing season so far......but I've seen much worse calls then this from officials on a regular basis. |
Eh. Wasn't that bad.

Agree with James pretty blatant. Refs blew it big time.
-Not a Bills fan, nor an Eagles fan PS - Does anyone care that Bradley Cooper was there? Why did they show him 20 times, is he dating one of the Kelce's too? |

Seemed apparent to me the NFL wanted the Eagles to win that game. Penalties were way out of whack.

I live near Philly and am an Eagles fan. Every week people post that the Eagles are being helped by the refs. OK to what end? They already lost a game so its not to have an undefeated season. They are way ahead in the standings and are almost a lock for playoffs already. So why do they need help from the NFL?
