Summary

Scott made a social media post about the ruling on the field during the Buffalo Bills vs. Denver Broncos NFL Playoff game, and it went a bit viral.  It was a quick, normal-people-language explanation of the controversial interception call from that game. Scott explained what the call on the field was and why it was called. Folks had a LOT to say about it.
