Cleveland can’t win, even when they’re supposed to.
In what can only be described as an egregious error — the Redskins were awarded the football on a fumbled ball, even tho it’s clear as day that a Browns player has the ball.
Browns running back Duke Johnson fumbles the football and quickly recovers it, yet the officials pay him no mind, choosing to focus on a pile of Redskins wrestling over grass.
The guys explanation of the fumble makes the video all the more hilarious.

The NFL — clearly unwilling to admit the referee’s made a huge gaffe — chose this explanation.

Those officials should miss a game or two for this stupidity, since Duke Johnson holding the football wasn’t definitive enough.
