NFL spokesman Greg Aiello's statement on the matter of pass interference calls on Hail Marys:

Quote:
"Officials have long been instructed not to call pass interference on 'Hail Mary,' jump ball plays (at end of halves or end of game) unless it is blatant as it was in the Seattle-Green Bay game. Offensive pass interference should have been called on that play. It was more than incidental bumping and jostling."

They'd probably been told, repeatedly, that they'd gotten DPI calls wrong so they were a bit gun shy.
