The Tampa Bay Bucs should be above .500 if not for a terrible no-call on Kyle Pitts.
Kyle Pitts scored Atlanta’s first touchdown of the afternoon in the Falcons’ 31-26 victory against Tampa Bay, then appeared to score another midway through the second quarter.
Kirk Cousins found Pitts for a 49-yard touchdown, and it sure seemed like it evened up the score.
However, it appeared that Pitts never crossed the goal line with the football.
Antoine Winfield Jr. caught up with Pitts, dove at the ball, and knocked it loose just as Pitts was crossing the goal line.
New footage seems to suggest that the refs screwed the Bucs.
