I'm not sure any recent blown calls can out-do the Giant vs Ravens call on Sunday...
Wow, that is HORRENDOUS. The Sherman-Julio Jones call was pretty bad too and may have cost the Falcons a chance to win the game. Meanwhile Burfict does this to Bennett (0:22 seconds in; notice the ball hadn't even gotten to Bennett and he wasn't even the target before Burfict went for his knee):

Multiple offenses, clear targeting and attempt to injure and he gets a slap on the wrist. But the NFL says they care about player safety...
Meanwhile Brady got 4 games for being 'more likely than not generally aware' of a deflation scheme that wasn't proven and scientifically debunked. Fucking NFL...I love the excuse that the owners permit all this because Goodell makes them money. A fucking orangutan could run the NFL and make them money, the way things have been run the past decade is a travesty, the game is becoming unwatchable, no one knows what a penalty is, no one knows what constitutes 'taunting' or 'excessive celebration', truly dirty and dangerous play is hardly being penalized and teams can't even promote their own product on twitter, it's a fucking joke.
