After Further Review: Denver Broncos officiating breakdown for Week 10

The Denver Broncos were called for 10 penalties against the Buffalo Bills, who were only penalized five times. However, the raw numbers definitely do not point to an anti-Denver bias in the officiating this week.

False Starts

Denver was called for false start five different times. One of these was on Courtland Sutton for moving his left arm before the snap. I disagreed with this call. Sutton did not move the rest of his body, did not move abruptly, and his movement did not trigger any defenders to move. The officials should not have called this penalty (though it looked like Buffalo had a defensive play dialed in that Denver was going to struggle against).
