Sorry if already posted but I just saw this. Did anyone see the HORRIBLE call that went against the browns in the fourth quarter against the skins? The browns were down 4 and just entered Commanders territory. The browns fumbled and they gave the ball to the skins. But there is a pile and the browns running back is standing outside the pile holding the ball up. The ref is looking in the pile and signals Commanders ball. And since it's a turnover it can't be challenged. They didn't even review it!

Doesn't make any sense. They said there wasn't clear evidence, but dude had the ball IN HIS HAND.

Actually, I just watched the footage. While you can't see anything from that side of the pile, there was a ref there. If the Commanders gained possession and then was touched down. He is down with possession no matter if the ball comes out after the fact.

Given what we know and what we can see. There isn't much argument to what happen here. Just a lot of butt-hurt by the Browns and Foreskin haters.

yea, don't get me wrong, I'd love to pile on and say the Washington needed help from the refs to beat Cleveland, but that view shows nothing. I would just assume Johnson took the ball back after the ref saw who ever it was on Washington with possession.

Plus every turnover calls for a full review if there is any question at all.......it makes you wonder if the whole replay system is even worth it.......I think it has hurt more than it has helped
