Los Angeles Chargers fans — and players — were none too pleased with Saturday night’s loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Chargers star Joey Bosa was particularly upset with the chief official on Saturday night.
Bosa believes that the referee missed some false starts and holding penalties. He was angry, for which he himself had to pay some punishment.
Many Chargers fans were demanding the referee’s sacking on Sunday morning.
While this probably won’t happen, it will be interesting to see if there is an inquiry into the officiating performance after the game.
Just last week, officiating crews for the Seahawks-Rams game were moved to the Woodshed.
“The Lions must be furious,” a source told ESPN. “It was a terrible way for him to end his season.”
There won’t be the same level of scrutiny for last night’s referee – and probably shouldn’t be – but alas, it’s the playoffs and fan bases get upset.
