The NFL actually admitted it. Rams coach Sean McVay revealed Wednesday that the league told him there was a crucial missed defensive pass interference call during Sunday night’s game against the Denver Broncos.

The Call That Screwed ‘Em

That controversial call, man. It went down during Sunday night’s game and was flagged against Josh Wallace for defensive pass interference. What’s absolutely wild is that if that flag hadn’t flown, Wallace would have had a game-sealing interception. Think about that: a pick that would have sealed the win, completely wiped off the board by a phantom call. It’s just brutal.

The League’s Half-Apology

Now, days later, we hear McVay spill the beans: the NFL *told him* Wallace shouldn’t have been flagged. It’s one thing for fans to scream about bad calls from their couches, but for the league to actually acknowledge they messed up in a game that was decided by that exact play? That’s a whole different level of frustrating. You have to wonder what that does to a player like Wallace, knowing his game-winning play was taken away by a wrong call, and the league knows it. It’s just a tough break.

Man, talk about a tough pill for the Rams to swallow, right? You gotta wonder what this kind of admission really changes going forward, or if it’s just a pat on the head after the fact.
