Jerome Boger, despite the lack of support from the NFL's vice president of officiating, was not wrong.
The referee in the Eagles' preseason game Saturday against Baltimore watched a play unfold in front of him and decided it did not pass the smell test, so he reached for his yellow flag and assessed a 15-yard penalty on Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs.
Boger, who is in his 12th season as an NFL official and his 10th as a referee, initially announced that Suggs was guilty of roughing the passer. He was wrong about that, of course, because Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford never threw a pass.
