It was the call that basically clinched the Philadelphia Eagles' Sunday night win over the Detroit Lions: With under two minutes to play, the Lions had a shot to get the ball back and try to tie the game.

... Except that Rock Ya-Sin got whistled for pass interference on A.J. Brown, a call that was questionable at best and one that was ripped by NBC's Cris Collinsworth, who called it "absolutely terrible."

So what did referee Alex Kemp have to say about it?

“The official observed the receiver's arm getting grabbed and restricting him from going up to make the catch," he said in a pool report. "So, the ball was in the air, there was a grab at the arm, restricted him and he called defensive pass interference.”

What's your take here? Is this pass interference? Shouldn't the officials let them play at this point? That's my take!

Questionable!
