Not open for further replies.
So I saw the Packers somehow pulled out a win late, haven't watched the game at all, just saw the score ticker on my phone. Said to myself "I guarantee fishy officiating played a major role in the Green Bay win... Better check PatsFans!"

As expected, you guys are all over it. I hate it when I'm right
 
great throw
 
Packers got a gift and they took advantage of it.
 
I swear to god Rodgers turned his head because he knew the defenders hand was in that area. What a crappy call.
 
Detroit stepping on their ****s again. At least it was exciting
 
It's like a magical script, ain't it? Rodgers gets that comeback from 9 points down monkey off his back, the networks go gaa gaa goony in their sploogefest of "the greatest QB in history!!!!!!!!!", NFL Offices quietly backslaps each other over yet another BLATANT fix and we're on to the weekend ref holocaust in NE, where NFL offices has reassigned their worst ,most incompetent crew.

Yeah, pure the driven snow!!! Nothing fishy going on here...nah.

That Hail Mary had about a 2% chance of working and still you see some grand conspiracy. What is wrong with you? The Lions choked and then the refs made a terrible call. But the Lions choked.
 
Rodgers has a gun of an arm and those idiot lions cbs couldn't do anything but look at it lol
 
Just saw the replay of the "facemask"

That is AWFUL. Yet another ref screw-up to change the outcome of a game.
 
Brutal, as soon as he rolled out of the pocket I said "uh oh." Great throw by Rodgers. We've had our fair share of miracle wins gotta give it to him.
 
I couldn't care less who won or lost this one since it has no effect on us, but that last play was amazing don't care what anyone says
Hurray for "giving credit where it's due"!!!!
 
OMG, did that just happen ? What an ending ? How did Detroit let that happen ?
They're stupid. Really, the Lions are a legendarily stupid team.
 
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!

Maybe it wasn't a face mask, but the refs don't have the same angles as the television cameras. In realtime, it sure looked like a face mask. If you can't tell after watching a replay multiple times in slow-mo zoomed in at a perfect angle, you can't really blame the zebras.

Why on earth would you swipe at his head to begin with? He would literally have to run 75 yards against 11 guys, after breaking out of the initial swarm. Situational football.

The Lions...lol.
 
I feel really bad for Lions fans !
 
The nfl refs have been abysmal this year. We can all agree
 
The guy got the face mask
He did it to a QB
Nobody should be overly surprised at that call

He grazed the very lowest bar on facemask, barely. They saw his head snap because he had his shoulder, not his facemask. If you want to defend the refs and say "hey, he touched the facemask. Might not agree with the degree, but by definition...". Just don't try to defend it with "oh his head moved, yada yada yada". You are supposed to throw the flag when you actually SEE a penalty, not just think one MIGHT have occurred...
