There has been 3 catches that could have gone the Packers way and the refs either overturned or it remained the same as called. Then they called a penalty against MLF at end of first half as he was running down to call a time out... Plus it was a play the booth should have reviewed but didn't... It's a calamity right now, terrible watch.
Edit: these refs are so ass that the INT by GB should have been called incomplete haha
The unsportsmanlike penalty on mlf was weird. But I don't think wicks had possession for it to be a TD. But for sure, it's odd to be the beneficiary of crap refs for a change. You had your years of favouritism with Rodgers as the poster child. We can have this one game right?

The rules are weird, if he caught that with knee in endzone and body most hanging OB it would be reviewed for a TD, but if he's knees in endzone but body in field of play it doesn't get reviewed?
I know the Rodgers years get the ref calls are a meme, but the Packers got probably more calls go against than helped. That was prime years when Clay Matthews would get RTP calls for text book tackles, or recall the Fail Mary which had huge impacts on the post season forcing the Pack to not have a first round bye and also to go to San Fran in post season where they got ran over.

I can't say I understand half the calls the refs make, it's never consistent. But there definitely wasn't possession, it should have been reviewed for sure, but I don't think it should have been overturned.
I remember prime clay, dude couldn't catch a break. He was one of my favourite NFL players, even if he was a packer 😜
