And THAT sucks! They need to be consistent with that call. It is just as game-changing as PI...

I'm of the opinion that if it's light contact - let it go BOTH ways. Like the first TD Washington got against KC. Was it OPI? - Yep. Did it alter the play? Maybe, but IMO Peters was not all THAT much interfered with - his bigger issue was that he jumped too early. BUT, the one Oakland got away with on their 1st TD last Thursday night was egregious. That was the very definition of OPI. That catch is not made unless OPI occurs. One of the worst calls I've ever seen on the subject. Sucks when it happens and it's so obvious to all but the zebras - or maybe it's obvious to them too and they just don't call it for some reason.
