Lattimore - stats say he gave up 6 receptions, but they were minimal yardard gained. Not to mention pass breakups on Gallup.

Offensively, Nick Vannett showed up. Brings physicality to the position we have been missing & was good in the screen game.

Business as usual for Deonte' Harris and Blake G. > Ballers all season.

That blindside block penalty from the refs ... smdh.

We were making a LOT of people nervous. Then that inexplicable flag for...blocking...

Imagine that they couldn't find a real foul but they needed (desperately) to put an end to the momentum Hill had built.

So, a flag that nobody can explain, drive killed. Game over. People, a subtle call like that affects the whole game. That's all it takes.

Somebody gonna tell me a professional NFL official actually saw a foul on that play?
