I've seen people say that RW missed a wide open Jerry Jeudy but I'm sorry, the guy he actually found was also wide open (also Jeudy was open over the middle, a spot that Wilson is notoriously bad at picking up). While I'd love to cast the Malcolm Butler parallel (just kidding I never ever want to see that play again), the Broncos absolutely deserved to put that game into overtime.
You're right. In slow motion you can see it was PI. At full speed it looks like around the same time the ball gets there. We're talking a split second here. They're not always going to call that.
