That was NOT a first down. WTF is going on here?

1. Clearly short on 4th down and they give them a first.
2. They snapped the ball at 2:00 so the play shouldn't have even counted.

Are these replacement refs again? I thought for sure that would be PI in the end zone too.

What just happened there? This whole drive I've felt like we've just been cheated over and over again by the refs. After every play I'm looking for a flag...and they're throwing one...

NO measurement?
