All 3 plays cost Bengals playoff win.

Still lay the biggest blame on Jones taking the bait. Other two came in heat of the moment when ball was alive and decisions are made quickly.

The deadball foul is inexcusable in my book.

Still all 3 did it, plus some crooked refereeing.

I kinda agree, but I feel Hill's fumble is more to blame... Just go down. He had to fight for extra yardage when it wasn't needed. Pacman put the final nail in the coffin. Had he not swung at Porter, maybe Joey would have gotten the flag. If you watch the video, Burfict is talking to the refs about Porter being out there. They didn't even have time to take it all in when Jones bumped the ref to get at him.
