Unless you are a Dallas Cowboys fan you are most likely outraged by the way the Cowboys' 24-20 victory over the Detroit Lions ended. So much that went so wrong at the end of that game, which turns into an incredible embarrassment for the NFL.
Here is a little of the social media reaction, starting with the governor of New Jersey and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones in a very awkward man-hug celebration.
So, about that pass interference call on the Cowboys that the refs decided never happened: http://t.co/6ueaaOCd3y pic.twitter.com/r80Wizws5L

Mike Pereira, former vice president of NFL officiating, was adamant during the FOX broadcast that the officials had messed up this call. He remained that way after the game.
I am out of here. Biggest call was the DPI pickup. It was DPI and it was defensive holding as well. Not good. Flying back to Sac tonight.

Dez on the field, helmet off, yelling at ref. Not unsportsmanlike conduct? pic.twitter.com/gK7GbPxCIP

Dean Blandino and this crew got some splaining to do. Lions got screwed.

Unless I took this AFTER the ball deflected off Pettigrew, that's a penalty. (Spoiler alert: I didn't.) pic.twitter.com/VoVXjFNMl1
