Doesn't mean the refs didn't fuck us.

Cleveland was a rare exception for me because it was so egregious and direct at the end.

Exactly. Take the block in the back on Kenny for the Bungles first TD. Some posters on here think it's a foregone conclusion that our D stops them if the refs throw the flag there. But it was on first down, so the Bungles would have had the ball at 1st and 20. No guarantee that we stop them.

The only play where the refs absolutely fucked us on the scoreboard was the BS holding call on Q.
