Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay would like people to know the NFL thinks its officials erred in his team's highly controversial loss, even if the league doesn't want him saying it.
INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA - OCTOBER 22: PJ Walker #10 of the Cleveland Browns is tackled by E.J. Speed #45 of the Indianapolis Colts during the fourth quarter at Lucas Oil Stadium on October 22, 2023 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
The NFL admits and understands that they did not make the correct calls at end of Sunday's Colts/Browns Game. I believe we need to institute Instant Replay for all calls, including Penalties, in the last two minutes of All Games.Browns-Colts ending was controversial, to say the least The calls in question came on the Browns' final drive of the game, when they were down 38-33 with less than a minute left. On 3rd-and-4, Colts linebacker E.J. Speed strip sacked Browns quarterback P.J. Walker, with defensive lineman DeForest Buckner recovering the ball for what would have been a game-sealing turnover.
We say"would" because the play was negated by an illegal contact penalty on Colts cornerback Darrell Baker Jr., who had made some contact with Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper past the five-yard mark, but not enough for the call to be immediately questioned.E.J. Speed strip sacks P.J. Walker. DeForest Buckner recovers, apparently clinching the game.
"I don't agree with the penalties at all," Baker Jr. said."When those balls are uncatchable, usually they don't throw those flags out, especially when they're initiating the contact with the corner. You can put your hands on them, too, as long as you're looking for the ball. I'm not impeding their force or anything. I don't know what else I can do better on that.
