Despite the Eagles’ 28-23 upset win over the Carolina Panthers last Thursday night, NFL referee Pete Morelli earned the ire of Eagles fans for calling what many viewed as a sloppy and lopsided game. Morelli’s crew was tough on the Eagles, penalizing the team 10 times for 126 yards, including some questionable flags against cornerback Jalen Mills and running back LeGarrette Blount.

The Carolina Panthers were hit with just one penalty. For just 1 yard.

“It boils me,” Mills said of the officiating after the game “You definitely get frustrated.”

One fan was so angry at Morelli’s checkered past in calling Eagles games that he started a Change.
