Referee Walt Anderson didnt bother collecting the jersey numbers when Tennessees offense messed up one play so spectacularly in the game at Indianapolis. He just called false start on everyone but the center .Otherwise, the officials drew more scorn than smiles in Week 11.Arizona coach Bruce Arians was steamed about calls and non-calls in the Cardinals crushing 30-24 loss at Minnesota that featured a reversed touchdown call and no flag on a 100-yard pick-6 . He began his post-game news conference, however, by declaring, I will not entertain questions about officiating.Good call.He wont be paying any fines.Arians was hospitalized Monday because he wasnt feeling well after returning to Arizona following the game. The Cardinals said initial tests came back favorably, but didnt specify what was ailing the 64-year-old coach who suffered from diverticulitis during training camp.Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin didnt go into specifics but can expect to hear from the league after lodging broad complaints about referee Brad Allens crew following the Steelers 24-9 win over Cleveland.I thought the officiating was questionable at times, Tomlin said. I just thought it was questionable. I thought there were some bad calls -- or no-calls.In Minnesota, the Cardinals were upset that no flags were thrown when Xavier Rhodes had a 100-yard interception return in the third quarter that put the Vikings ahead 20-10. They argued unsuccessfully that receiver John Brown was held by Captain Munnerlyn on the play, which should have negated the pick-6.Im sure well turn that into the league, Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer said, and Im sure theyll come back and say it was holding.That would be of little consolation to the Cardinals (4-5-1), who fell three games behind the surging Seattle Seahawks -- who made the best call of the weekend -- in the NFC West.While Arians was not in the mood to discuss the officiating at all after the game, his son Jake, who kicked for the Buffalo Bills in 2001, sent out a tweet with an obscenity directed at the NFL and its officials.One of the worst decisions of Week 11 was made by Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald, whose roughing-the-passer penalty just before the two-minute warning ignited the Dolphins game-winning drive in Miamis 14-10 win in Los Angeles.We talk about it almost each and every week with Jeff Fisher and the Rams undisciplined play, NBC analyst Rodney Harrison said. Why would Aaron Donald take a cheap shot like that? Were not making this stuff up. Its documented. This is something that happens all the time with Jeff Fisher, and thats why they end up losing the game.Even before Donalds helmet-to-helmet hit on Ryan Tannehill, the Rams burned one of their two remaining timeouts with 2:18 left -- as they were lined up for a punt, no less -- rather than take the delay-of-game penalty.They sure could have used that extra timeout in the final minute after the Dolphins had gone ahead.The best call of the weekend goes to Seahawks coach Pete Carroll. He capitalized on the improved health and mobility of quarterback Russell Wilson, who caught a touchdown pass from Doug Baldwin as the Seahawks rolled past the Philadelphia Eagles 26-15 on Sunday.Because Wilson was lined up in the shotgun and not under center, he was an eligible receiver and he sneaked out into a route after flipping the football to Baldwin on the trick play.Ive been begging for that play for the past two or three weeks, Baldwin said. They doubted my arm ability, they doubted I could make the throw, so Im glad I got to prove them wrong.On a day kickers around the league missed a record dozen extra point attempts , Washington coach Jay Gruden opted to go for 2 twice -- and converted neither -- in his teams 42-24 win over Green Bay. He was validated, however, when Green Bays Mason Crosby missed a 36-yard attempt at that end in the third quarter, and when his kicker, Dustin Hopkins, shanked an extra-point attempt off the right upright in the fourth.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---AP Pro Football Writer Dave Campbell and AP Sports Writer Stephen Whyno contributed.

LOUIS -- Roman Polak was celebrating even before Alexander Steen scored the winning goal in Saturdays 4-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes. Brian ODriscoll is excited. His body may hurt a little less than his playing days, but his rugby mind stays as active as ever and he is keeping a close eye on the progress of two young Ireland and Leinster centres.?Watching Robbie Henshaw and Garry Ringrose for Leinster strikes a nostalgic chord with ODriscoll, who knows a thing or two about the arts of rugbys midfield having played 133 times for Ireland, and when he starts waxing lyrical about their potential then you take notice.Leinsters 16-8 win at Connacht on January 4, 2014, was no landmark match in the big scheme of things -- Gordon DArcys match-winning try wasnt especially unique -- but it was the first time when the present and great Ireland partnership met the future in then Connacht No. 13 Henshaw.DArcy and ODriscoll were coming to the end of their rugby careers but there was something about Henshaw that stayed with the Leinster and British & Irish Lions legend. ODriscoll never played competitively against Ringrose, but similarly, his first encounter with the future Ireland centre left a lasting impression.?With Garry, the first time I saw him I thought he had huge promise, BT Sport pundit ODriscoll tells ESPN. He was with the Ireland U20s and they were training against the national team about three years ago. You could tell immediately he was pretty special.He was a lot skinnier then, he was pretty slight but his running angles were exceptional. He had a nice passing game and clearly had something different to his peers.Robbie grew on me, the more I saw of him. He was young when he first played for Connacht as an 18 or 19-year-old but what immediately stood out was in the first game I played against him, I tried to see if he had an edge and he certainly wasnt taking any backward steps.He wasnt going to be bullied around the place. Theyre going to complement one another beautifully and theyre pretty unique.DArcy and ODriscoll played a record 56 matches alongside each other in Irelands midfield. Leinster teammates Ringrose and Henshaw are yet to play together forr Ireland -- the closest they came was when Ringrose replaced Henshaw in the early stages of their match against New Zealand in Dublin.dddddddddddd.The true acid test of any partnership is at international level but ODriscoll believes the two of them can take their form with Leinster to the next stage with Ireland.Theres huge potential there. I am very excited about watching them develop, ODriscoll said. The two of them are playing provincially together for the first time and youre looking at an opportunity of them playing in the national jersey as well.Knowing how young they are, they can forge a long-lasting centre partnership. They complement each other beautifully.Robbie Henshaw is the perfect 12 for the modern game -- hes big, physical but very skilful. And Garry Ringrose is a good tackler and elusive with bundles of pace and a great offloading game. They complement one another with Johnny Sexton at 10 and Joey Carbery. They have an embarrassing of riches there.The two link up again in Saturdays Champions Cup clash between Leinster and Northampton at the RDS. Ringrose and Henshaw tormented the Saints last Friday in a performance which reminded ODriscoll of the great Leinster team that won three European titles in four years from 2009 to 2012.He credits Stuart Lancaster with bringing an increased intensity to their defence to the extent that they now use it as an attacking weapon with Ringrose and Henshaw instrumental to that new approach.ODriscoll feels normal service has been resumed at his former province complete with a young all-Ireland partnership in the centres and there is a growing excitement that Leinster are on the way back to greatness.Tune in for round 4 of the European Rugby Champions Cup with Leicester v Munster, Saturday December 17 at 15:15, followed by Leinster v Northampton Saints at 19:45 and Sale v Saracens on Sunday December 18 at 17:30, exclusively live on BT Sport 2.
