NFL officials called one of the worst "defenseless player" penalties ever

Buffalo moved to 6-5 on the season, while Kansas City fell to 6-5.

Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith dumped off a pass to running back Charcandrick West, who took a hit from Bills defensive back E.J. Gaines. Somehow, after a brief discussion with other officials, they ruled this a hit on a defenseless player:

Luckily for Buffalo, and the refs, Smith would throw an interception to seal the game.

But it was way too close for comfort, and completely the official's fault.

Buffalo moved to 6-5 on the season, while Kansas City fell to 6-5.
