The whistle on Cutler's fumble was horrible. Why don't you swallow your whistle and let the play continue then sort it out when it's over. Otherwise, why even have those plays reviewable? Either that or the NFL needs to adopt the college rule where a player is awarded the fumble recovery if the play is overturned if they would have recovered it.
Chargers got hosed

That was disgusting. I'm beginning to think there isn't a fair sport to watch anymore. Hard to be a fan when your team can lose to the refs.
14 points to the Broncos today were gifts from the refs. Horrible.

Lambeau, Landry, and even Ditka himself couldn't have overcome the refs on the field in Mile High today. Steroid boy (Hoculy or however you spell his name) should be banned from officiating.
I have no dog in this fight, but San Diego got screwed, kinda pissed me off until......Shannahan goes for 2, what balls, that was awesome!!!
Didn't see the game. Sounds pretty horrible though. However, my fantasy team BADLY needed that Eddie Royal touchdown. So hooray!
You are pretty desperate to celebrate that. A replay booth that mysteriously doesn't work when it give the home team a turnover in scoring position and then that absolute pile of a call at the end. If I were a Bronco fan I would stay out of discussions. 14 points GIVEN to the Broncos. Sad.
i dont see how you could celebrate after winning like that. You didn't even win the game...Ed won the game for you. what a bunch of BS. I can't stand the Bronco's and i hate them even more now.
Five minutes on Shanahan's guts and Cutler's maturation. Not one mention about either play. ESPN sucks.
You can't be sure that a working replay system would have overturned the earlier turnover. The talking head announcers are wrong more often than not on their interpretations of replays. From my view, I could not confirm that the receiver had control as he went down. The ball and hand in question appeared to be hidden so by rule the call on the field of a turnover probably would have stood.
I'm a Broncos fan so I'm admittedly biased, but what should be Bronco's have done? Forfeited because the refs made to terrible calls that went in their favor? Bad calls have a tendency to work themselves out over the course of a season and I'd be less than shocked if Denver had a few questionable calls against them when they visit San Diego.
I watched it, it wasn't even close to an interception. Not even close. It shouldn't have been called as such on the field in the first place.
The guy I am playing in Fantasy football had Cutler. Not only should that have been a fumble causing Cutler to lose points for a fumble, Cutler ended up getting another TD pass and points for throwing the point conversion.
