No it wasn't, not even Kirk Cousins is bitching about it. It went for a league review. Did you even watch the replacement refs?

Anyone got a clip of the offending play? I was driving away from a hurricane that didn't land and missed most of the football this last week.

I mean I don't get a slow motion there so I can't say for sure. Real time it looks like he got hit right at the back of his windup.

Yeah the thing is that the debate is about if the ball came loose from the Defender's left hand hitting Kirk's arm and then Kirk's arm moved it forward.

Once you start splitting hairs like that they generally just go with the call on the field.

Yeah, in my opinion the ball looks like it's perfectly in Kirk's control right up until it gets batted into the air, but by then we're squinting at blurry still images and we're probably past the point where we can definitively say "oh yes we have absolute, conclusive evidence that the call should be overturned."

I'd be furious if I were a Redskins fan, because it's pretty clear—just not quite clear enough.

I think his left arm jostles it but I hate Dan Snyder so much that my confirmation bias is professionally diagnosable.

It does, the question was whether the ball was rolling out of his hand before the arm came forward, which--probably it wasn't. But with the call on the field a fumble, they chose not to overturn. It was a bad call but I don't think the Redskins win even with that being an incomplete pass.

Oh yeah, it totally was. I don't think any Eagles fans here are saying it was the correct call.

I guess you could make the argument that there wasn't enough evidence to overturn the ruling on the field, but I think everyone watching it live thought it was going to be overturned after seeing the replays, including the Eagles players and coaches.

Bridgewater should be back next year so maybe the Redskins can replace Cousins with Bradford.
