    Jets Called For Worst Roughing the Passer Penalty Ever on Baker Mayfield
    Stephen Douglas 6 hrs ago

    The New York Jets are attempting to win their second straight game after losing their first 13 games. They are not a very good team so they need all the help they can get, even against the Cleveland Browns. So when Folorunso Fatukasi gets called for roughing the passer on Baker Mayfield for this, well the Jets don't really stand a chance.

    Fatukasi barely bumped Mayfield and Baker didn't even flop. Twitter was beside itself, dubbing this the worst roughing the passer call of all-time.

    Amazingly, the Jets are leading a game where a call like this went against them. Not a great look for the Cleveland Browns, whose playoff chances drop significantly if they can't beat the 1-13 New York Jets.

    That's one squad we won't have to watch ref-ing a PO game! They were TERRIBLE today on both sides of the ball.

    That pass interference call on Bless was an absolute gem as well and very easily could have cost the Jets the game.

    Unless there was something that didn't show up on the TV replay there was absolutely nothing there and literally nothing as the ball was approaching/arrived. It looked like at most Austin patted his hip as he went by him.

    Worthless pathetic calls, both of them.

    This and the Bless PI call were just unreal. Both could've easily helped the Browns win yesterday.

    Earlier Sam Darnold clearly fumbled and even after review they called it an incomplete pass. That was a way worse call that probably cost the Browns points. Just a bad crew of officials.

    That officiating gives credence to the theory that the NFL 'manages' outcomes.

    You have to wonder sometimes, there has been some shockers and i only really watch our games.

    When the commentators are shocked you know it is wrong.
