It is a process that has become all too familiar to Cleveland Browns fans.
A game official will make a highly suspect call against the Browns, only for NFL headquarters to come back a few days later and say, “sorry, our bad, that was not a penalty.”
It happened several times in 2018, most notably against the Oakland Raiders in Week 4, when the officials somehow pieced together video to overturn a late run by Carlos Hyde that would have sealed a win for the Browns.
This season, it only took until Cleveland’s first offensive drive of the game against the Tennessee Titans for the officials to make a mistake.
