Sunday's officiating was bad. For the sake of argument, let's say the Colts were gifted that game winning FG by the refs. There's a Bronco that clearly jumps on the back of a Colt, but let's just give that to Broncos fans. That would still put the refs at -8 points in favor of the Colts. They took 4 points away from the Colts on the Riley Moss DPI no call, which would've given the Colts 1st and Goal from the 1 instead of settling for 3, and from the 1 has been about the only time the Colts have effectively scored in the Red Zone this year. They also gave the Broncos 7 on four really bad penalty calls at the end of the first half that walked Denver down a 50 yard field, including a phantom DPI that gave the Broncos 1st and Goal on the 1. Without that 11 point swing, the Colts don't need a last second FG to win.

That said, refs are going to miss calls. To win consistently in the NFL, a team can't leave games in the refs' hands.
