OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The NFL acknowledged an officiating mistake cost the Baltimore Ravens a victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.
League spokesman Michael Signora said the Jacksonville Jaguars should've been penalized for a false start on their final play from scrimmage, which would've resulted in a 10-second runoff and a 20-19 victory for the Ravens.
Instead, the Jaguars were allowed to snap the ball and Elvis Dumervil was flagged for a facemask of quarterback Blake Bortles. Jason Myers then kicked a game-winning 53-yard field goal with no time remaining for a controversial, 22-20 win for the Jaguars.
