We’ll obviously be talking about the unfortunate lateral attempt from New England Patriots receiver Jakobi Meyers to quarterback Mac Jones, and Las Vegas Raiders edge-rusher Chandler Jones’ game-winning recovery of said lateral, for years. It was one of the more bat-crazy endings to a game in NFL history.
But the touchdown that tied the game at 24 with 32 seconds left is worthy of equal scrutiny. That’s when Raiders quarterback Derek Carr threw what looked like a great 30-yard touchdown pass to receiver Keelan Cole. Referee Ron Torbert ruled that it was a catch, and after a long review and communication with the NFL’s command center, and VP of Officiating Walt Anderson, the call was upheld.
