Missed Calls Can Change Games

So the Titans lost yesterday.  They turned the ball over way too many times, but still, they should have held it together and won.  Unfortunately, one of the game-changers was a missed delay-of-game call.  I understand that there is a little delay that happens when the back judge looks from the play clock to the ball, but still.  This was about a 2.5 second delay AFTER the play clock expired.  And yes, if the Titans had been taking care of the football and that, it wouldn't have mattered.  But the fact is that it did.  If the Ravens had been flagged with that penalty, Flacco wouldn't have made that huge completion that down.  They would've been 5 yards and 1 down farther away from Stover's field goal range.   Who knows, maybe the score would be different!?!
