The officiating crew for the Monday Night Football game between the Buffalo Bills and the Seattle Seahawks, led by referee Walt Anderson, is reportedly expected to avoid direct discipline for a series of botched calls at the end of the first half.
Adam Caplan of ESPN reported a source stated the crew won't receive punishment for the mistakes but will be graded on those calls, as is standard practice. The officials with lower grades don't qualify to work during the NFL postseason.
Anderson and Co. made a mess of the situation surrounding Buffalo's attempt to kick a field goal before halftime.
