In the end, it was the right call by the letter of the law, but it came at the worst possible time, with tens of millions watching the nation’s biggest sporting event of the year, Cindy Boren writes.
Eagles all-pro center Jason Kelce also wouldn’t point a finger. “They called it, and that’s the way this goes,” he told reporters. “I’ve said this before: I’m never going to be somebody who puts blame or anything on officials. That’s a hard job. They make a call. It is what it is. There were multiple other moments in that game to take care of business, and I think that, you know, we were close.
Eagles Coach Nick Sirianni echoed Kelce: “I know it always appears to be one call,” he told reporters, “… but that’s not what it is.”that people “criticizing the refs for that holding penalty [and] saying ‘you can’t make that call at that point in the game’ lol. when are they supposed to call it — after the game? just [because] it was bad timing for an Eagles penalty doesn’t mean you shouldn’t call it. it was clearly* a penalty.
ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky, a former NFL quarterback, replied to Spears: “You are out your dang mind if you think that’s the right call my brother. And I love you like family.” ESPN analyst and former quarterback Robert Griffin III also disagreed, , “After looking at the play, that wasn’t pass interference. Or defensive holding. That call decided the game.”— CJ Uzomah
