Top 10 Worst Calls/No-Calls in NFL history

[DeadlyDynasty]

This should be good.

1. Music City Forward Pass
2. OPI on Seahwaks in SB 40
3. Vinny Testaverde's "TD" scramble against the Seahawks--effectively ruining their season and getting Erickson fired.
4. Russell Wilson's GW interception against GB (probably the worst, but SB 40 collectively wins)
5. DPI on Buffalo vs NE in 96 or 97 I think--off a ing Hail Mary.
6. Seahawks holding call in SB 40
7. Jerry Rice's fumble in the 98 WC game (Not called a fumble, led to SF win)


Will fill in the rest as it comes to me...what are yours?

Another Steeler gift. Feel bad for Pastorini and Campbell

Renfro's catch that was incorrectly ruled out of bounds

Some that haven't been mentioned:

- Bottlegate

- The pass-interference call on Dallas's Benny Barnes in Super Bowl XIIII

- Phil Luckett announcing "tails" when Jerome Bettis clearly called "heads" (or the other way around) at the OT coin flip on Thanksgiving Day '98 (IIRC Luckett was the referee for the Testeverde play as well)

- Don Chandler's "made" FG at the end of regulation of the '65 Western Conference playoff vs. the Colts

- The quick whistle on Clay Matthews's fumble recovery against the Oilers in the '88 AFC Wild-Card Game

Re: the Sugar Bear Hamilton roughing-the-passer call- that was actually the right call. Hamilton hit Stabler in the face, which was flag-worthy even then. There was a far worse no-call on New England's previous possession when Phil Villapiano blatantly held Russ Francis on a third-down pass play and got away with it.

Speaking of roughing the passer, I'm sure you have fond memories of Mark Gastineau (the correct call as well)

That penalty and the Ronnie Harmon drop are proof that Cleveland teams do indeed catch the good breaks from time to time.
