Divisional Round Refs Announced: Pats gets Pete Morelli (merged)

[QuantumMechanic]

Courtesy of PFT. Remember, the crews are all-star (bleah) so just because there's a ref listed doesn't mean his crewmates will be working the game.

• SEA @ ATL - Gene Steratore
• HOU @ NE - Pete Morelli
• PIT @ KC - Carl Cheffers
• GB @ DAL - Tony Corrente

Since the Superbowl refs are drawn from the Divisional refs, one of these will ref the big game.

Great. We have to get Morelli and not Steratore.

 

[JMC00]

Steratore, Morelli, Cheffers, Corrente are Divisional Playoff referees

How the f**k was this guy graded well enough to do a divisional game?


Also one one of those four will do the SB

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Steratore, Morelli, Cheffers, Corrente to serve as divisional round referees

I don't like Morelli. He's usually throwing too many flags.

One of the divisional refs will get the super bowl. Of this list i'd take steretore or cheffers.

Pretty shameful if this is the best the NFL can muster up.

 

[Le Numéro Douze]

These guys are part time, how do you expect them to get better? The time to hire full-time ref and have a REAL support system for them has passed a long time ago.

Pay them better, train them better and evaluate them better. That's the only way we will get better officiating. From Monday to Saturday, they should be reviewing their own performance on film, get advises, etc. They should be full time, period.

Corrente is only one of the 4 who has got SB assignment before.

 

[Kontradiction]

Oh no! Is the FIX in???

 

[Observer]

Glad to see blakeman's name not on the list

 

[paragon11]

Or Jerome B(0)oger and his "hoading" penalties.

 

[dannydyn]

Booger and Haculies not there, I'm good. Though I would have preferred Steratore.

Glad to see blakeman's name not on the list

Which means he could get the AFCCG or NFCCG..............great........
Still don't forgive him for picking up the flag in the end zone when Gronk got mugged with no explanation!!!!!

 

[DaBronxPats14]

Oh no! Is the FIX in???

As soon as Suspension and season began.

 

[Kontradiction]

As soon as Suspension and season began.

Sure, off the field. On it, the Pats are 14-2. Any attempt at leveling the playing field failed miserably. But I've lost count of the amount of teams that this forum thinks the league is trying to tip the scales for on the field.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Great. We have to get Morelli and not Steratore.

After the crap-fest that was the Seahawks-Lions game, the Falcons better be thanking their lucky stars that they got Steratore for their Seahawks game.
