Enraged NFL Fans Think Eagles-Chargers ‘MNF’ Game Was Rigged Following Incredibly Fishy Mistake By The Refs [VIDEO]
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

Angry football fans think the Philadelphia Eagles’ road game against the Los Angeles Chargers was “rigged” after a horrific game-changing mistake by the NFL refs in the fourth quarter.
Facing a 3rd-and-1 situation at their 48-yard line, the Eagles lined up for what appeared to be an incoming “tush push” play. But Jalen Hurts instead pitched the ball outside to Saquon Barkley. The star running back took it to the house for a 52-yard touchdown:
SEE YA SAQUON! 52-YARD TD!

A closer look at the slo-mo video, however, and you’ll see that Jordan Mailata got away with a blatant holding call on the touchdown run. Inexplicably, the NFL refs missed the infraction:

“Of course the Eagles got away with a hold on that Saquon touchdown, NFL rigged this game for sure,” one fan wrote.

“These rules analysts are awful. No wonder the reffing sucks in the NFL,” another wrote.
“See this clear and obvious hold just as Barkley is running by? I wouldn’t have called it, either.”

Well, it’s not the first time the NFL refs have been accused of “fixing” games for the Eagles this season. Remember, the league actually had to warn the officials to watch for false start penalties against the Eagles that were going uncalled earlier in the year.
