Week 13 NFL Games

[pherein]

I like RG3 but my man Wilson is Da Bomb!

Love wilson to, to bad we have to kick his butt monday

 

[pherein]

NFL refs are horrid this year.

Nonetheless, RGIII-9

I totally agree. Alot of Refs need to be cut.

 

[Delicate Genius]

Al Michaels going off was awesome.

Jeff Triplette is an idiot.

They have been seriously awful this year. Not better than the replacement refs at this point.

 

[Observer]

Wow, and we thought WE were getting shafted by the Refs!

How many games do we need to end this way before the NFL makes the Refs full time and properly trained.

 

[pherein]

Eli is a good kid, just to bad he was born socially brain dead. Hes a good boy though watching him grow up in NO. PM was such a brat, lol.

 

[SB39]

All of a sudden, the replacement refs don't look so bad....

 

[patsinthesnow]

Rams could get the #2 overall pick from the RGIII trade. They have learned well from the BB school of trading down.

 

[SB39]

I totally agree. Alot of Refs need to be cut.

How many games do we need to end this way before the NFL makes the Refs full time and propery trained.

Yeah! Because full time refs never make mistakes! Never any bad calls in baseball and basketball! :bricks:

There's no way to get such plays out of the game... unfortunately....

True, but it can be reduced and limited so less teams lose games that end up mattering later. Refs have really effected the playoff map this year.

Bingo, my Saintly friend.

It all comes down to the NFL not making these guys full-time professionals. I know, I know, the season only lasts 5 months (6.5 including PS and SB), but these guys should still hone their craft, train and teach for the NFL in the offseason.

For SB 46, I was shocked to learn through my broker-dealer a week before the game that the head referee was a fellow Financial Advisor with my company. My company was thrilled and proud. I was shocked and horrified (though he and his crew did a pretty good job).

How can it be reduced? What is watching game film in July going to do to solve a problem when one ref thinks it's a first down and signals the chains to move and it's the final 2 minutes of the game so it's already a cluster****?

 

[robbomango]

I disagree, the replacement refs never knew where to spot the ball, everything was a ten minute meeting. Games would go over 3.5 hours because they had know clue how to keep the flow of the game moving.

Horrendous call but if it were the replacements they would'v spent 15 minutes discussing it and banging heads like the three stooges.

Still irritated about that call, wanted RGme to mount a comeback and beat Eli Gump in overtime...

Full time officiating isn't going to make any difference, as anyone who's watched other sports can already tell you.

Actually, they do those thing during the offseason. Not full time, but I swear some people think that once the season is over the refs disappear until August. There already is offseason training sessions.

I don't care if they make refs full time or not, I just laugh at how foolhardy some people are that they think a ref watching game film in early May can prevent bad calls like the non-PI on Gronkowski or 1 ref thinking it's a first down and telling the chain gang to move.

 

[ensoul]

Al Michaels going off was awesome.

Jeff Triplette is an idiot.

You know it's bad when michaels says something.

The NFL will back the refs regardless and somehow will say the refs made the right call.

 

[Ozymandias]

Al Michaels is probably pissed because he had money riding on the Redskins. He's a degenerate gambler of the highest order.

Nonetheless, the referees have been exceptionally bad this season. It's getting worse and worse each week and the NFL doesn't even seem to give a damn. As long it doesn't affect their bottom-line, the NFL couldn't care less.

The players and the fans watching the games are the ones that have to suffer through this ineptitude, that is quite frankly hurting the integrity of the game.

 

[juny]

so mad at KC giving up 5 TDs to PM. I fear that the 50 TD mark is going down this year.

Who really cares about that useless stat anymore?

If you asked Tom today if he'd trade that record for another SB ring, he'd do so in a heartbeat, no questions asked.

Ultimately, that's the only thing that really matters. Pointless regular season stats don't mean jack all when it comes down to it. I'm going to keep laughing if he does break the record only to go one-and-done like he always does while the Patriots march on to #4.
