“This is the worst call I have seen all year.It’s literally the worst call I’ve seen all year,” Romo said.“He’s getting guarded.They’re going to say he’s running a route.They think he picks 53.He doesn’t.He goes into his own guy who’s guarding him and says it’s pass interference on him.

“That is ridiculous.You know that happens on almost every play when you’re pressing something, right?”

The Chiefs were able to rally after the penalty, which forced them back to their own 3-yard line.
