The Denver Broncos defeated the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night in a wild game, 30-26.
One can easily under if Sean McVay and his team was frustrated after a questionable pass interference call went against LA on what turned out to be Denver’s game-winning drive.
Josh Wallace appeared to make a spectacular interception of a Bo Nix pass intended for Pat Bryant.
The Rams DB somehow managed to pick the pass while staying inbounds to make it a great play.
There was laundry on the field, however, in the form of a penalty flag.
Wallace was called for defensive pass interference, giving Denver a first down.
NBC rules analyst Terry McAulay didn’t see any penalty on Wallace.
The Rams had a game winning interception wiped away by a controversial DPI call…
So the NFL’s lead rule analyst says the refs got the call wrong and yet nothing changes 🤷♂️

Rams star defensive lineman Aaron Donald wasn’t about to buy into the controversy, especially after his team was lit for 30 points in the second half after taking a 16-0 lead into the break.
What did Aaron Donald think of the late penalty that took the Rams interception off the board?
