It looked like a fairly clear foul. McBride made his case to Seeman. And while the cameras and microphones captured nothing McBride said, a CBS camera on the sidelines <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/JCTretter\/status\/2106886909146665468?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">showed Seeman<\/a> apparently saying to McBride, \u201cFuck you.\u201d Twice.<\/p>\n<p>NFL Players Association executive director JC Tretter issued a statement calling Seeman\u2019s behavior \u201c<a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/nfl\/profootballtalk\/rumor-mill\/news\/nflpa-issues-statement-on-comments-made-by-line-judge-jeff-seeman-to-cardinals-tight-end-trey-mcbride\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">unacceptable<\/a>\u201d and expressing hope that the league will hold the officials to the same standard that is applied to the players.<\/p>\n<p>Via Sam Neumann of Awful Announcing, CBS reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala witnessed the interaction. She <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/awfulannouncing.com\/nfl\/aditi-kinkhabwala-trey-mcbride-official-jeff-seeman-profanity.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">heard no profanity<\/a> from McBride.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was standing right there,\u201d Kinkhabwala said on Twitter. \u201cWhat\u2019s wild is that it all started with Trey McBride saying \u2018please\u2019 when pleading his case for a PI flag. He was heated for sure, but I never heard a curse from him. The harshest he got was, \u2018You\u2019re ruining the game.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was a bad call, to be sure. The latest in a recent epidemic of erroneous calls and non-calls of pass interference. The point is that, as players, coaches, and officials interact after such decisions are made, certain lines shouldn\u2019t be crossed.<\/p>\n<p>If McBride had said to Seeman what Seeman apparently said to McBride, there surely would have been consequences. During the Fail Mary misadventure of 2012, the NFL <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2012\/09\/27\/sports\/football\/nfl-football-roundup.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">issued multiple fines to coaches<\/a> for their conduct toward replacement officials.<\/p>\n<p>The league has said it will review the situation. There\u2019s not much that needs to be reviewed, however. The eye in the sky doesn\u2019t lie, and it doesn\u2019t take extensive lip-reading skills to understand what Seeman said to McBride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On any given Sunday of NFL games, expect the unexpected.
