So, about that facemask no-call on Thursday night, as the Los Angeles Rams took down the Minnesota Vikings …
After the Week 8 game, referee Tra Blake said this: “Well, on that play, the quarterback was facing the opposite direction from me so I did not have a good look at it. … The umpire had players between him and the quarterback, so he did not get a look at it. He was block out as well.”
But is that really the case? Fans didn’t think so and shared some screenshots and videos to submit as proof — you can so a couple of officials with pretty good views:
this ref literally must be blind

The ref needs to be suspended for a month without pay I’m sorry . He’s looking directly at Sam Darnold getting tackled by the facemask and Just doesn’t call the flag in a one score game with 1 minute left pic.twitter.com/IWAnuSDprd
