Injury] OPI called on Ferguson as Branch goes down injured ...

The Dallas Cowboys got screwed in what might very well go down as the worst call by the NFL refs this season.

Fans were furious when the NFL refs missed a potential “neutral zone infraction” penalty against the Cowboys earlier in the game. But the Lions went on to win 44-30, so the controversial no-call at least didn’t affect Dan Campbell’s squad.

But on the flip side? Cowboys fans have good reason to be furious after a horrific offensive pass interference call against star tight end Jake Ferguson. The call happened late in the fourth quarter, with the Cowboys trailing by 10 points.

Ferguson was called for offensive PI on Alex Anzalone, even though the latter committed most of the contact here:

Instead of a fresh set of downs near the goal line, the Cowboys had to settle on a Brandon Aubrey field goal. The Lions, however, put the game away on the ensuing drive with a Jahymyr Gibbs touchdown.

Per ESPN, the NFL refs flagged the Cowboys seven times for 76 yards. The Lions were penalized eight times, but those fouls only cost them 50 yards.
