in the past, when you've had bad calls, it hasn't necessarily been the last call as time expired. it's time to set precedent-don't let an awful call stand here, there's no reason to let it stand.
and the guy who said the ruling stood, who reviewed it, he should be sacked. he shouldn't be able to call peewee football, let alone a professional game.
Watching Mike and Mike this morning, and there is a rule where the commissioner, and only the commissioner, can overturn the result. In this case, if they admit the call was wrong, how can they not?

Of course I'm betting they somehow try to explain that the call is not clear cut or something to that effect. It is hilarious watching this covered on NFL Network. They are trying to spin it like it was the right call.

These refs have been afraid to make tough calls against the home team from the start but last night was rediculous. The NFL should be ashamed of what they are putting out there because it is affecting the outcome of games.

Yea, we are suppose to get a written statement by the NFL explaining the ruling last night. Can't wait to read that BS.

They won't change the result because of the gambling factor. The NFL claims to abhor gambling but they know there is a direct correlation between gambling dollars and their popularity.
