Does Sports Illustrated's cover photo show another missed call against Patriots? [View all]
http://twitter.com/SInow/status/671725404483362816/photo/1This week's Sports Illustrated cover is ... interesting?
Considering the hullabaloo over officiating in the Denver Broncos' 30-24 upset of the New England Patriots on Sunday — a storyline we've covered to death here on Shutdown Corner — the fine folks at SI picked a picture that could be interpreted as holding against Patriots defensive tackle Dominique Easley.
You wonder if the magazine's editors selected this photo from a pile of possible pics that could have landed on the front page, simply because it juxtaposed the game's main storyline — that Broncos backup quarterback Brock Osweiler improved to 1-0 against Tom Brady — against the sidebar story of officiating.
