How in the world do you miss that interference on 4th down he nearly tackled Jackson before he touched the ball. The NFL is making their own champs, kind of like the NBA

Cause the Eagles would have scored on that drive if it was called.

I agree, how could you not call Pass interference on that play, he clearly tripped up the receiver.

Cardinals got screwed when the ball didnt go out of bounds on that kickoff in the 1st half.

It was the refs making up for that dumbassed call on the kickoff. FWIW, he catches the ball that hit him in the hands and its not an issue. Or if McNabb doesn't blow two first down opportunities with bad passes. My point, games aren't won or lost on one play.

The Eagles may not have got the touchdown, but the refs missed that call and took away any fair shot the Eagles had to tie the game. I still think the NFL needs to change its rule. Eagles had a better regular season record and beat the Cardinals head to head, they should have had home field.

as a saints fan, i know a lot about pass interference. i would be very upset if they would have called that on the saints so i think it was a good call

Yeah, it probably didn't have anything to do with the fact that Donovan McNabb missed about 10 open receivers in the first half in route to a 24-6 halftime deficit, or the Eagles' complete inability to stop Larry Fitzgerald...

The ball touched the Eagles player when he was out of bounds. Doesn't that make the ball dead at that spot?
