      Not possible. There is no such thing as a more disciplined team playing against a team that can’t block the other without holding or commits silly penalties bc they aren’t very good.

      Eagles have 2,501 penalties against since 2000, Bills have 2,510. Checkmate

      Except pass interference (that was offset by a Bills penalty) and the softest RTP I’ve ever seen.

    It’s definitely bullshit but it does happen all the time unfortunately.

      Refs got their orders to call 2 false starts on the eagles to make it a 59 yard field goal in the pouring rain, and the orders to call a 15 yard rtp to keep the bills hopes alive in OT too, right?

    Oh, for fuck’s sake. That Allen call sucked but sometimes teams commit more penalties than others. It’s not officials’ jobs to even out penalty calls.

    Not defending Hochuli and his crew here. But to say it should “never happen” and “isn’t proper,” EVER, is absurd.

    Won’t deny that we committed some blatant penalties. But some of the no-calls were absolutely egregious.

      Josh Allen gets horse collared and jersey ripped up. Referee this is without a doubt “intentional grounding”.

      Honestly I don’t mind no-calls. What I can’t stand are phantom calls. Meaning flags for shit that simply did not happen. Carter got called for a facemask on a running back a few weeks back against the Rams. It looked like he got the mask by the way the guy’s head turned but the replay showed he clearly grabbed his chest.

      Which means the ref just saw that it looked like a facemask and just threw the flag. If the ref doesn’t see the foul he shouldn’t throw the flag.

      Where can I find replays of the bad calls/no-calls? I keep hearing about it but can’t find video to judge for myself

      Refs called zero penalties again Philly vs Miami too. Even when they ripped the head off a receiver to stop him from catching a pass. Philly games have been reffed terrible in Philly’s favor this year and at this point I struggle to think it’s just a coincidence that it keeps happening.

      Just saying…

      When the Dolphins fans complained about this exact thing against this exact team with a ref wearing a fucking Philly Strong bracelet, we were called drama queens and making excuses. By many of your own compadres.

      Kind of sucks don’t it?

      Hate to say it but y’all should have won.

    I’m not one to go solely by the numbers for penalties but some of these are crazy. Like the non horse caller tackle call, or intentional grounding when there was clearly a receiver.

      Happened to us against the Bears in 2015. We had 8-118 and they had none. Sure, it happens, but literally no holds called against that 2015 defense? Outta here.
