Lots of things to point to in that game. Kick a 48 yard FG (or make some better play calls in that final drive) and you win the game.
I don't ever like to blame the officials for a loss so won't start here. But the quality is a huge issue. If you miss a call, sure that happens. But there were embarrassing phantom calls on both sides and that is inexcusable. Don't throw a flag unless you're sure, no need to be looking for reasons to call penalties.
