In an unfair ending to a great football game, Green Bay Packer quarterback Aaron Rodgers was fouled on a play that ended the game. Fans across the country watched in surprise as the officials kept their hankies in their pockets as Karlos Dansby carried a Rodgers fumble in overtime into the end zone propelling the Cardinals into the next round of the NFL playoffs. Replays show a clear face mask penalty on Rodgers, but in a season where unprecedented efforts have been made to protect quarterbacks, this one went uncalled. Officiating is about consistency, and this non-call is about as inconsistent as you can get this year in the NFL.
