NFL Admits Wrong Call on Wallace Cost Rams Win

Rams head coach Sean McVay revealed the NFL has admitted that a pass interference penalty on Josh Wallace should not have been called, directly impacting the game's outcome.

The controversial call came with 1:09 remaining in the game, negating what would have been Wallace's interception while the Rams led 26-23. Instead of securing the victory, the penalty gave the Broncos first-and-goal, leading to a touchdown and a 30-26 win. playerbros.org

While Wallace did make contact with Broncos receiver Pat Bryant, McVay stated the league office confirmed it was not pass interference. Bryant acknowledged flopping to sell the call, and the Rams believe the incorrect call significantly altered the game's result.
