First five minutes of the game.

Eagles cornerback throws down and holds down Falcons receiver after the play is dead. Falcons receiver tries to get up, remains held down. Kicks the cornerback holding him down. Receiver gets unecessary roughness, cornerback walks away laughing.

That was the indicator for how the game would be officiated. The Falcons had to play the Eagles and the officials, and everyone knows it.
