Pass interference on Vikings' overtime TD vs. Saints? Ex-NFL refs says yes

 

Quote

 

No flag was thrown for offensive pass interference. But at least one former NFL official thinks a rule was broken during the play.

"It is illegal for an offensive player to extend his arm or arms and create clear separation from the defender. That was OPI," former NFL official Terry McAulay tweeted shortly after the game.

John Parry, a former NFL official who works for ESPN, echoed McAulay's assessment.

I think the officials on the field let it go because the DB had hands on the TE too...what amounts to 'chicken fighting'.  I don't think the officials wanted to touch such a tight call in the playoffs with a 10-foot pole.  I think it was a judgement call and nowhere the blown call like the Rams game last year.
