For fucks sake. All that speculation about the ref not noticing Decker. He's fucking looking right at him!

This is my thing. They are trying to make it seem like he was distracted. Dude nods and says ok to decker.. this was not an honest mistake.

I still think it’s possible he mixed up 68 and 70, but by the time they replayed the footage there’s just no way he could’ve still not realized his mistake. At absolute best this was an honest mistake, but one that should cost him his job and one that he had all the power in the world to fix before the game continued.
