"The officials consulted.
They got a call directly from Commissioner Roger Goodell's office. They were told uphold the call because New York's two NFL teams were about to fall to a combined 3-10 and be out of any realistic playoff contention this year with nine weeks left in the season. The league needed to avoid the hit of having both of teams located in the nation's top media market being unwatchable in the same season, tanking TV ratings on games that have to broadcast locally, especially in a season where the Super Bowl is headed to Met Life Stadium.
