Bengals' Zac Taylor waiting for NFL response to officiating gaffes vs. Browns
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor and the team aren't thrilled with the officiating from Ron Torbert's crew coming out of the Week 7 win over the Cleveland Browns.
A few examples come to mind that might irk Taylor. But based on his comments to reporters on Monday, the big one is the flag Torbert's crew actually picked up involving Ja'Marr Chase.
To keep it short and sweet, officials threw a flag on what seemed like pretty clear pass interference by a Browns defender. But officials then picked up the flag, citing the pass as "uncatchable." Problem is, the defender stopped Chase's route and the ball only landed five yards in front of the two players.
It was a silly turn of events, hence Taylor telling reporters he's “waiting to hear” from the league -- implying it is one of a likely few plays the Bengals sent to the league office for further explanation. That's not an uncommon practice for all NFL teams weekly, but this occurrence was pretty out there.
Despite all this, we probably won't hear about this again. But Taylor and the Bengals are at least right to point out the likely multiple instances of officiating miscues from Sunday.
