Was pretty sure I was watching the game. Haven't seen a replay since. My first thought was Should have been a strip but they replayed it on the air and you can hear the whistle. But audio is sometimes off when streaming so can't be sure without a replay.

Feels like you’re being gaslit the whole game. “Wait, do I just not know the rules like I thought I did?” “Was there a recent rule change on that one?” Etc.

NFL Refs Accused Of 'Rigging' Sunday's Eagles vs. Rams Game
The Philadelphia Eagles and Los Angeles Rams are squaring off on Sunday afternoon, in a rematch of last season's NFC Divisional Round Playoff Game. Philadelphia, which went on to win Super Bowl 59 last season, is looking to rally from a big second half deficit on Sunday. Los Angeles, led by...
We were not alone in seeing the problems but as usual corporate media preferred to go with the Eagles are capable of overcoming any opponent and deficit narrative. The truth is they are a good team who are being added and abbetted by some terrible officiating. Was this crew biased? That is probably going too far but there were some terrible calls that all seemed to benefit one team
This article doesn't even mention the pass interference on Puca or the touchdown that was negated when the Eagle defender completely lost the leverage battle, lost his feet and was pancacked on his ass....
"As talk to ban the "Tush Push" grows, NFL officiating crews were instructed to officiate the play as tightly as possible. Mark Maske of the Washington Post reported that all 32 NFL teams were sent a video heading into Week 3.
"Upcoming at The Washington Post: The NFL said in its officials' training tape sent to all 32 teams this week that the Eagles should have been called for false-starting on the tush push Sunday against the Chiefs, instructing officials to call 'these plays tight,'" he reported.
"The officials' training tape sent to all 32 NFL teams Wednesday shows a tush push by the Eagles with 5:29 left in the game and says: 'False start would be the proper call here...' The NFL also says on its officials' training tape of the tush push: 'We want to make sure that we officiate these plays tight and make sure that every aspect of the offensive team is legal and any movement… that’s not correct, we want to shut it down as a false start.'"
But on Sunday, the officiating crew for the Eagles vs. Rams has already missed some calls.
NFL fans blasting officiating crew for Eagles vs. Rams
The officiating crew for the Eagles vs. Rams game immediately missed a penalty on Philadelphia's first Tush Push play of the game. This should have been a false start, but the refs didn't call it.
Even FOX on NFL called out the league for missing the penalty.
The Eagles appear to be getting the benefit of the doubt on this play, for whatever reason. NFL fans are growing tired of it.
Later in the game, the refs appeared to miss an offensive pass interference penalty on Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown. He "clearly" pushed off to get free on a touchdown catch in the second half.
Meanwhile, the Rams have been on the receiving end of some terrible calls, including a 15-yard taunting penalty for wide receiver Puka Nacua. The standout wide receiver was hit with a 15-yard personal misconduct penalty after flexing following his seventh catch of the day.
"Doesn't matter who you root for, it's stupid. He's pointing to the endzone," Ari Meirov shared on X.
NFL fans fed up with Eagles getting beneficial calls
The Eagles are one of the best teams in the National Football League. They don't need help from the officiating crews, too. But they are getting it.
"Seconds after the Eagles left tackle gets away with a false start on a tush push, A.J. Brown commits an uncalled offensive pass interference on a TD reception. RIGGED," one fan wrote.
"Why is the NFL officiating so rigged in the Eagles favor????" one fan added.
"It's not even hard to see that the refs are bias towards the Eagles the Rams barely have to do anything and they are getting flags and calls against them yet the Eagles seem to be able to do whatever they want and nothing it's clear who the NFL is favouring this year," another fan added.

Carter and Davis using leverage of Limmer and Ward(who is a long snapper and cant touch withing the first Second) now i see the back view. Happend on both kicks.Limmer should be on the Wavier wire NOW. Fuck this guy.

If the Whistle was blown for play being dead on the Tush push, it was either a failed one on a 4th and 1 and should be a turnover, or a fumble and a turnover.
NFL officials are all just a bunch of little punk arses, the only way they could find their way on to a football field is by officiating a game or holding the chains.
Followed closely by our shitty blocking for not 1 but 2 failed game winning FGs.
Both times should have been a penalty on the Eagles they had contact with the LongSnapper

I was wondering that myself! I was thinking why don’t more teams collapse the centre of the OL and now, thanks to you, it’s clear:
“you cannot run into the long snapper during a field goal block attempt, as NFL rules prohibit contact with the long snapper for a brief period after the snap to protect the player, who is in a vulnerable position and is considered a "protected player". Any forceful contact with the long snapper before the snap is completed can result in a personal foul for unnecessary roughness or roughing the snapper, leading to a 15-yard penalty”
How the hell has this not been discussed by former players, sports journalists and commentators ever since? The first one was debatable but not the second

It’s not that they had contact with the snapper, that’s legal. You cannot blow them up or use them as leverage.
Davis clearly places his hands on Ward’s back and pushes himself through the gap between the center and Limmer.
Section 12, Article 3, Paragraph 1p prohibits placing your hands on a player to get additional height to jump through a gap. The only questionable caveat is whether Davis used leverage to get height.
My other concern is why didn’t the umpire flag it?
