The missed call was sore spot for fans who watched the Rams close out the 30-20 victory. Los Angeles got two points on the controversial play because Darnold was tackled in his own end zone.
Referee Tra Blake explained to a pool reporter after the game that he could not see the facemask getting grabbed.
“The quarterback was facing the opposite direction from me, so I did not have a good look at it,” Blake said, via ESPN. “I did not have a look, and I did not see the face mask being pulled, obviously.”
Blake said that umpire Carl Paganelli had also been also blocked.
“The umpire had players between him and the quarterback, so he did not get a good look at it,” Blake added. “He was blocked out as well. So that was the thing. We did not see it, so we couldn’t call it.”
