Anyway, the NFL said it was a good call (I saw it that night and then again yesterday and thought it was a bit iffy, but whatever).

They may have missed a pretty bad shirt tug on a Jags' defender who (they said) got into position to make an interception which he returned for a touchdown.
Harrison and Mathis grabbed each other, which may be why they opted not to throw the flag on that one? The PI call didn't give 'em first down in FG range, it gave them a first down with something like 30 more yards to go. The officials also didn't give up 234 rushing yards.
