The officiating crew across the pond didn't have the best day.
. Both teams started slow and the opposing quarterbacks didn't put on much of a show. Aaron Rodgers was tortured by Brian Flores's defense throughout the day and Sam Darnold looked more like the guy who used to play for the Jets than the MVP candidate who led the Vikings to four straight wins in the opening four weeks of the year.
Many in the NFL world would contend the worst performance of the day came from the officiating crew. The refs were absolutely hammered throughout the contest by fans and pundits alike for numerous questionable pass interference calls and one pretty awful roughing the punter penalty.Really wish the NFL competition committee would reconsider how pass interference is being officiated. Being an NFL cornerback is getting more impossible by the day.
There’s a reason why they didn’t show the replay of the “Roughing the Kicker” call. Because it was soft. Pace was pushed into the punter. 5-yard variety at WORST.Down 17-7, Aaron Rodgers got sandwiched in the pocket, grabbed his knee, limped off as Jets punted from their goal line. Terrible roughing punter call ... and ARodg turned and trotted back out to conduct a field goal drive. Miraculous melodrama from the biggest diva ever.
