Breaking News: Lions player Crushed Ref After Brutal Roughing the Passer Call in Lions-Vikings Game…

Each week there gives off an impression of being a dubious roughing the passer bring in the NFL, and that was the same in Week 16. This week, that punishment happened in the Minnesota Vikings-Detroit Lions game, as the refs called another problematic punishment. Vikings linebacker Pat Jones II was hurrying to get to Lions quarterback Jared Goff, however connected with Goff after the quarterback had disposed of the ball. The referees still penalized Goff for roughing the passer, much to the disapproval of the Vikings team, despite the fact that it appeared that Jones did not hit Goff too late or in an egregious manner.
NFL fans were set up to brawl over the call, as the Lions got a free first down as opposed to being constrained into a third-and-long circumstance, and they took to virtual entertainment to communicate their dismay.
For the Vikings to get an opportunity at winning the NFC North, they need to overcome the Lions both on Sunday and in the last seven day stretch of the time. Each play is significant, so getting some unacceptable finish of a dubious call is an unfortunate turn of events for Minnesota.
