He was involved in Music City Miracle. (lauded as a great call)
He collided with Joe Horn on a long pass attempt. (probably his fault but I don't the mechanics of football)

I was just using him as an example, and maybe not the best one, but, as has been pointed out (and as we know, but Michael Wilbon apparently does not), every official gets graded (and downgraded) all the time. Graded well for getting it right, graded poorly for getting it wrong.
I'm not grasping how the Testaverde thing wasn't his fault, though (wing's call?).
