Unnecessary Roughness

 Dressed up as I was in the photo of the previous entry, I watched the end of the Chiefs-Bengals AFC Championship Game.  It was decided by a marginal, I thought, unnecessary roughing call.

The referee’s call put the Chiefs in range for the game winning field goal.  The call was unnecessary because the defending player was trying his hardest in a big moment to play defense with no intent to injure.  It was a case of a referee deciding a game.
