Cowboys Legend Troy Aikman Urges NFL to Investigate Referees After Eagles’ Controversial Loss: “They Got Robbed, and the League Can’t Ignore This.

October 6, 2025 — Philadelphia, PA


In the aftermath of the Philadelphia Eagles’ controversial 24–27 loss to the Denver Broncos, NFL legend and Cowboys icon Troy Aikman has delivered one of the strongest takes of the weekend — defending the integrity of the game and calling out the officiating that decided it.

 

“No one wanted the Eagles to lose more than I did, but not like this,” Aikman said during the postgame broadcast. “The Eagles got robbed, and everyone who watched that game knows it. Those calls weren’t just wrong — they stole what this team fought for.”

His statement came after a wave of outrage from fans on X (formerly Twitter), where hashtags like #EaglesRobbed#NFLRefs, and #FlyEaglesFly trended overnight. Users accused referees of “manipulating” crucial moments that shifted momentum late in the game.

and “uncalled PI Goedert Skinner” (filtered for posts from October 5–6, 2025), several viral clips surfaced — though no official NFL video directly confirming the incidents has been posted, likely due to broadcast rights restrictions.

Still, fan-recorded and highlight clips have fueled the fire:

Steelers Linked To Saints SuperStar With 5x Pro Bowl & 2x All-Pro in Blockbuster Trade
Pittsburgh, PA — According to a  circulating on X (Twitter), the Pittsburgh Steelers have been “linked” to Alvin Kamara—the New Orleans Saints superstar, five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro—as a potential target ahead of the trade deadline. The speculation has heated up as various outlets have also floated Kamara as a logical “fit” should the Steelers look to add a versatile, late-season playmaker on offense. At 30, Kamara is a rare dual-threat RB who excels as both a runner and receiver. He tied the NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns (Christmas Day 2020 vs. the Vikings), and he has recently been recognized as the Saints’ all-time leader in rushing yards. Across his career: 5× Pro Bowl, 2× Second-Team All-Pro, and a skill set that meshes with Pittsburgh’s motion/spacing concepts—screens, angle/choice routes, safe check-downs, and short play-action. Tactically, if a move ever materialized, Kamara would immediately put stress on short-to-intermediate coverages, force defenses to roll a safety, and give Pittsburgh intriguing two-back looks alongside Najee Harris on 3rd-and-medium and in the red zone. In this hypothetical scenario, Kamara voices a desire for a fresh challenge after hitting so many personal milestones in New Orleans: “I’ve achieved just about everything with the Saints, and I want a new challenge for myself. What could be better than a team competing directly for a Super Bowl? Just thinking about wearing Black and Gold really excites me.” As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the Steelers or the Saints regarding any talks. Still, Kamara’s résumé and toolbox explain why his name is quickly paired with Pittsburgh whenever rumors of an offensive upgrade surface. With 5× Pro Bowls, 2× All-Pro honors, and a proven knack for tilting games as both a runner and receiver, even a whisper on social media is enough to make Steelers Nation perk up.
