The Cincinnati Bengals lost the AFC Championship game by a score of 23-20 on Sunday, and while poor officiating was not the reason they lost, it certainly didn’t do them any favors.
There were several missed calls during the game, and some of them came at crucial moments. There was a missed holding call on Trey Hendrickson, a possible missed roughing the passer call when Burrow was shoved to the ground a good couple seconds after he threw a pass, and there are questions about the intentional grounding call on Burrow when a similar pass wasn’t flagged from Patrick Mahomes.
