VIDEO: Jets Actually Won a Pass Interference Challenge Against Redskins and Reversed a Brutal Call
By Adam Weinrib
I guess we now know what it takes to get a PI call reversed in this league? After months of feckless coaches desperately hoping the league would make their calls realistically malleable, it turns out they will reverse the call if it randomly involves Demaryius Thomas getting taken down by the defense and getting whistled for OPI in an inconsequential battle.

Was this an absolutely insane call? Yes. That's in the top 1% of dumb accidental calls.
Will this trend of reversals ever make it down to, say, the dumbest 10% of calls? Let us pray.
