Pat Shurmur, Giants sending NFL 'bigger handful' than usual of officiating calls to be clarified

Giants head coach Pat Shurmur revealed Monday that the team will be petitioning the league to clarify several questionable calls made by referee Pete Morelli's crew in Sunday's 33-18 loss to the New Orleans Saints.

"Oh yeah," Shurmur said Monday, when asked if the team would look for explanations for any of the calls this week. "There's a handful of things. That's typical of any week. I have a bigger handful this week."

One of the plays in question was a 15-yard horse-collar penalty called on cornerback Janoris Jenkins in the first quarter that helped aid a Saints field goal drive.
