Butterfly effect.
yes it can. As any 15 yard penalty or pass interference call could easy put a team in position to score a touchdown or field goal at the end of a close game.

A bad call, such as a 4 and 25 yard play, gives a team a first down and potentially a chance to score to win the game. Now if the team was up by 15 points, wouldn't matter, but a team only up by 1 or 2 points.. critical.
