Exactly. It happens to everyone. This week was our turn. Next week it'll be someone else's and we'll benefit and so on and so forth...

Like I said, if you're the guy bitching about the refs every single time we lose, and there are a ton of those in every fanbase, a lightbulb SHOULD be going off at some point.

Is anyone saying that isn't the case? It's like you have this copied and just keep pasting it regardless of whether or not it needs to be said. No one has denied that. Go find a different topic to troll, you're failing miserable here.


No I'm not. The false start was a false start. The defenders made no contact and jumped back onside...o-lineman can't move...they need to remain disciplined, even if the D jumps...and they didn't remain disciplined...one false started!

It's such a bull shite double standard. Why does the team have to play better but the refs get excused? Why can't the refs be required to play better? If you hold a team to such a high standard why don't you hold the refs to a high standard instead of just blowing it off as the team has to overcome the refs mistakes?

The refs should be held to a higher standard and graded and penalized or whatever using whatever system they have, I agree.

Will you at least admit that two of those calls were way more egregious than the usual crappy call? The non time out and the false start calls were game changing. One of them directly led to the difference in the game.

Cowherd just talked about how terrible of a call that Jenkins hit was fwiw
I never got a good look at a replay to know either way.

But given the rule and watching that in full speed, I think fans should stop and think about if they were the ref in that spot, it's virtually impossible to 100% know you made the correct call in that situation.

Oh, and why weren't players taking about it? Don't want to be fined for bitching about officiating.
Because they don't want to sound whiny like the Saints Talk board?

With the ref crew yesterday, sure. With the way the rules state, the D should have been called.

With AT LEAST one defender in the neutral zone.

Thanks for proving your age doesn't make you know more though.

Since you obviously don't know the rules, you should probably just quietly back out of the thread now.

The game is so fast...officiating at that level is crazy! I thought on Jenkins, from the reverse angle, there was helmet-to-helmet contact and his head snapped back. On Sproles, it was a clean shoulder to chest hit. The only legit issue to me was the delay of game call...clock ran out...no judgement involved.

If yesterday doesn't prove how flawed and compromised of a product the NFL is producing, I'm not sure what would.

The lack of recognition is just as disturbing.

Yes, they were bad calls.

But without watching a replay, I can almost assure you of this - Had we intercepted that very last pass and won, some guys on some Patriots message board would be posting pics and gifs on big plays where we got away with holding and/or some other penalty.

That can be done virtually every game, every close game definitely.

Was the injury timeout not a legit issue?

I don't give a shite about the holdings or judgement calls

I hate the NFL messing up basic NFL rules like injury timeouts and the delay of game. inexcusable

The guy was still offsides when the o-lineman moved. You don't have to make contact. You should probably do some research about the sport of football before getting into debates about it with people who aren't as dumb as you.

Yeah, I messed up the way I presented that...defensive players can't startle the o line into jumping...I would like to see that again. As I said, it is a judgement call...maybe the refs thought the D was not in neutral zone...the O has to remain disciplined, as the D is allowed to jump around. For some of you to say these aren't judgement calls is absurd!
