Flags thrown in the last three quarters: ZERO
Well played on both sides, or refs swallowing whistles?

I add my vote for extremely well played, since I can't think of a single controversial non-call.

I hope the super bowl uses this ref staff.
Well you go to the SD board and there are some crying for bad reffing. I didnt' see anything that should have been called, it looked really good today.
There were a couple questionable calls from SD's perspective. One where Samuel hooked a Chargers receiver around the waist on an incomplete pass and another on the illegal contact call on Stallworth when Stallworth was holding onto the the defenders arm as much as he was being held, but those didn't impact the final result of the game. There's not much either side can complain about.

There's nothing illegal about hooking a WR around the waist.
If you say so.
I said it before the game. I know we have history with Triplette, but he and his crew (well, 4 of 7 of them were from his crew) was ranked top 3 in the NFL this year for a reason. I said before the game we could do a whole lot worse.
They called one illegal hands early on against the Chargers, basically to say, "knock it out," they got the facemask right, Triplette was all over the running into the kicker and avoided calling it a personal foul, and they let the players sort it out. Every side line play was perfect -- and there were a few.
There was only one bad call in the game that I saw. Steed missed the fact that a San Diego receiver had stepped out of bounds before catching the ball, which should have been an illegal touching penalty. But, in his defense, he was straightlined by the goal post and it was a bang bang play where he DID get the out of bounds call right.
Thats already been decided... There's a thread around here somewhere about who the staff is.
It was a well played game on both sides.
