The officiating crew from Sunday’s game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns has been chastised by the NFL World. This one had some wild calls, including some brutal missed penalties.
Watson was harassed and humbled in Sunday’s 28-14 season-ending loss. The officials failed to call an extremely obvious facemask by Pittsburgh defensive lineman Larry Ogunjobi on Deshaun Watson. On Sunday night, the officials faced a lot of criticism, and some people demanded investigations.
“After this game, the NFL will need to take a closer look at Clete Blakeman’s team. by far the worst-officiated game of the year. horrible calls all day, “a follower wrote.
Before switching to the NFL in 2008, Blakeman began officiating American football in the Big 12 Conference as a field judge for the first two seasons of his professional football career. In 2010, Don Carey returned to the role of back judge, and Blakeman then started officiating for the NFL.
NFL fans were happy to see Deshaun Watson fail
Although referee Clete Blakeman missed spotting a facemask on Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, fans believe he did well. Many fans believe Watson should not have been allowed to play, and this is Brown’s worst mistake in playing with Watson. Following Watson’s poor performance, some fans assassinated his character.
With 230 yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions, and a passer rating of 84.0, Watson completed 19 of his 29 passes. He was hit ten times and sacked seven times. He had little opportunity to relax in the pocket, and when he did, he had trouble locating a receiver.
