‘Rams got robbed’: Controversial call that may have changed everything in brutal Broncos loss
A controversial pass interference call erased Josh Wallace’s late interception as the Rams fell 30-26 to the Broncos, sparking outrage over the officiating.
The Los Angeles Rams suffered a controversial loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday Night Football, with many arguing that a pass interference call against cornerback Josh Wallace may have changed the outcome of the game. With Denver trailing 26-23 and facing third-and-six from the Rams' 11-yard line with 1:15 remaining, Bo Nix threw a pass toward Pat Bryant.
However, Wallace intercepted the ball, seemingly securing a game-saving turnover. Yet, a flag for defensive pass interference wiped away the turnover, giving Denver a fresh set of downs on the five-yard line. This decision sparked debate, with NBC rules analyst Terry McAulay stating that Wallace did not hinder the receiver significantly, suggesting that it could have been offensive pass interference instead.
Denver capitalized on the call, scoring the game-winning touchdown. Fans and analysts were quick to point out the injustice of the call, calling it a "terrible call" and claiming that the Rams "got robbed."
