I'm thinking about the Singletary false start...
Although it was a small movement, he gets to reset, which he did. The ball had not been snapped, so that was a pretty intolerant call.
Uh, I'm no physics major, but how does that ball land where it does without his arm moving forward? I was hoping the NFL would screw this replay up also, but the landing spot made it seem pretty obvious.

I'd like to see Mitch throw. If he's hoping to audition himself, it would be nice to see him do more than hand off. Nothing deep, but show he's improving in some area of the passing game.
I think these penalties are the result of officials wanting to ensure they get credit for watching action during special teams plays which happen in open field. As I said in an earlier post, too many of these calls have no impact on the actual return. The camera angles are not always there either since the action happens further from the ball, so I think refs take advantage of this.
I logged in to comment on the holding penalty during McKenzie's last return.
Why was that flag necessary. Flags are supposed to be thrown when the event impacts the play. How does holding on a player matter when the returner is tackled behind the act? The player held didn't have as good a view of his teammates tackle, so throw the flag?
Idiotic.
I can't stress this enough...
The Bills are on a totally different level than they were in week 5. There is no doubt that locker room believes they can beat anyone. Who they play doesn't matter at this point. If they expect to be SB champs, then whoever they play is irrelevant. Right now, that includes the Chiefs.
