NFL broadcaster Cris Collinsworth was upset with one of the last penalties taken in the game as the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Detroit Lions, 16-9, on Sunday night.
The Eagles had the ball on third down with about 1:47 left in the game. Eagles wide receiver AJ Brown was competing with Lions defensive back Rock Ya-Sin as Jalen Hurts attempted to continue a drive. The pass was incomplete, but a penalty flag was thrown.

Ya-Sin was called for pass interference, making it nearly impossible for the Lions to get the ball back in enough time to try to tie the game. Collinsworth was upset with the call.
“It’s an absolutely terrible decision that’s going to decide this football game,” Collinsworth said of the penalty called against Ya-Sin. “In any case, it is an offensive push.
“If you want to call a foul, it’s an offensive foul.”
Eagles running back Saquon Barkley would ice the game on third down of the next drive.
The Eagles defense played at a championship level for the second straight week, this time, suffocating the Lions offense at home.

Last week’s target was Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love. This week it was Jared Goff. The Eagles’ defense made Goff as uncomfortable as possible and did enough to hurt the Lions’ touchdown hopes several times late in the game.
Detroit settled for a field goal before the 2-minute warning after breaking up another Goff pass attempt. The Lions turned the ball over three times in the third quarter and punted twice in the fourth quarter. The Lions were 3 of 13 on third down and 0 of 5 on fourth down.

Goff was 14-for-37 with a touchdown pass to Jameson Williams and an interception to Cooper DeJean. Jaelan Phillips and Nakobe Dean recorded sacks on Goff. Eagles defenders deflected 10 of Goff’s passes. Philadelphia’s Jordan Davis had three deflections.
The Eagles’ offense was not very good. But Hurts scored with a butt kick when it mattered most. He was 14-for-28 with 135 passing yards.
In the midst of a week of controversy, AJ Brown led the team with seven receptions on 11 targets for a team-high 49 yards.
