Once again, the Washington Redskins can point there fingers at the officials.

According to Mike Jones of USA Today, team president Bruce Allen received word from league officials that the devastating intentional grounding on the Redskins' potential game-winning drive was the incorrect call, a penalty that took them out of field goal range. Cousins was sacked on the next play of the game to send it to overtime.

With the Redskins driving, Cousins threw the ball towards the sidelines on a short out route, however a miscommunication between the quarterback and Jamison Crowder saw the ball fall to the turf with no one insight, resulting in the call from the officials. While no one was in the vicinity, the pass wasn't a throwaway, but instead a timing route gone wrong. What should have been third down for the Redskins with a chance to better their field position instead turned another failed game-winning drive.

This won't really make you feel better, #Redskins fans. But two league sources say the League contacted Bruce Allen to tell him that Cousins intentional grounding call was incorrect and shouldn't have been a penalty. — Mike Jones (@ByMikeJones) November 20, 2017

Of course, there's no way to know if the Redskins would have capped off the drive with a last second field goal, however it shows once again the ineptitude of NFL referees, and for the second time this season, it cost them any chance of making a comeback.

At this point, it's just rubbing salt into the wound.
