Considering that NFL referees are already not known for their stunning accuracy, this has caused controversy on more than a few occasions to put it lightly. This video lays out some of the most infamous calls in playoff history and the waves they made in affecting the sport for years to come.

    The megatron one was atrocious. He caught it, both feet in obviously. Went to the ground. Which means he is down in the end zone so touchdown. He drops the ball as he stands up and somehow that's ruled incomplete. A total embarrassment by NFL officiating.

      As in, the part where the news station admitted they heavily edited the recording (including cutting out the part where she essentially admitted to having broken the kid's arm...or at least admitting Tyreek had nothing to do with it and admitting to being physical with him herself) because they thought that part wasn't "newsworthy".

    One could also mention the end of the 2002 Wild Card game between the Giants and 49ers where the intended target after the botched field goal attempt was actually an eligible receiver, which if called correctly would have given the Giants a chance to win with a chip shot field goal following a pass interference. Of course, the Giants did a lot to lose the game, including breakdowns on both sides of the ball to blow a huge lead and not one, but two bad snaps cost the Giants field goal opportunities.
