Calling out NFL referees is becoming endemic amongst the Rams and their supporters.<\/p>\n
Just hours after Puka Nacua put \u201cThursday Night Football\u201d officials on blast<\/a> for some of their calls in Los Angeles\u2019 38-37 loss to the Seahawks, Matthew Stafford\u2019s wife took to her Instagram on Friday morning to question them as well.<\/p>\n While sharing a replay of Cooper Kupp\u2019s incredible sideline catch in overtime, Kelly Stafford urged her followers to take a look at one of the referees\u2019 reactions to the toe-tapping snag.<\/p>\n Kelly Stafford criticized the refs on Instagram. KellyStafford\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cNever seen refs get this excited about a catch?\u201d she wrote while adding a thinking emoji. \u201cNow the blown dead two point conversion and illegal man downfield makes sense. Should we be looking into this? Can I get these refs names?\u201d<\/p>\n Kelly followed that post up with a \u201cya, I\u2019m petty\u201d message before sharing vidoes of her daughters.<\/p>\n The first of the other two plays Kelly had an issue with came in the first quarter of the key NFC West matchup at Lumen Field. <\/p>\n A Rams touchdown was wiped away by an ineligible man downfield flag that \u201cTNF\u201d rules expert Terry McAulay said on air \u201creally isn\u2019t a foul.\u201d<\/p>\n The other play Kelly referenced was the improbable two-pointer<\/a> the Seahawks scored to even up the game at 30 in the fourth.<\/p>\n Cooper Kupp makes a sideline catch in overtime of the Seahawks win over the Rams.

Appreciate you stripes for your contribution. Lol.\u201d<\/p>\n He quickly deleted the post, though minutes later, even Sean McVay appeared to question<\/a> the two-point ruling in a tense postgame press conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n Kelly and Matthew Stafford Kelly Stafford\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve never seen anything or never been a part of anything like that,\u201d the Rams head coach said. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve grown up around this game. I\u2019m not making excuses. We don\u2019t do that. I don\u2019t believe in that. It doesn\u2019t move us forward, but we do want clarity and an understanding of the things that we can do to minimize that when we rejected the two-point conversion.\u201d<\/p>\n The clearly ticked-off Rams will have some extra time to cool down before their next game on Dec. 29 against the Falcons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Calling out NFL referees is becoming endemic amongst the Rams and their supporters.
