HAHAHA officials are a joke.  They get paid 6 figure to literally not make the right call. 

 

Bring back the replacements. 

 

I know no referee actually said that, but you just reminded me of a flag thrown during the Chiefs/Broncos game. After a ball was thrown to a wide open receiver in the end zone, the back judge put his flag on the ground despite the fact there were no defensive players within 10 yards of him. John Parry said, and I quote, "There is no foul for pass interference. The ball had already hopped." LOL What? Who cares about the ball hopping; there was nobody in position to interfere with the receiver!

 

Before the next snap, Al Michaels said, "They changed the call." The defense was penalized for taunting. Automatic first down LOL.

 

Quote:Yesterday was a very typical NFL day of very bad officating in just about every game. Maybe the NFL needs to look at full-time refs and fines for some of the really horrible calls. Add to this the possibilty that a ref was confrontational with a player. It is not getting better

 

At first I thought the player would get fined for criticizing an official, but a teammate said he heard it too, so the NFL is investigating it.

 

That was not the first time an official was heard cussing. Tony Corrente cussed at another official with his microphone on last year and was fined his whole paycheck lol. I  expect that umpire to suffer the same consequence if the accusation can be proven.

 

Jeff Triplette is always bad, so I am not surprised at all he screwed us up big time on the fumble recovery. Why didn't Mike Periera fire him years ago? I understand that's not a reviewable play, but because he did review it Triplette should have seen the indisputable video evidence a Jaguar recovered the football. Dick Stockton and Ronde Barber saw it. Triplette just hates the Jaguars and will say crap like that to help us lose.

 

A 49ers player is strongly convinced the referee in New Orleans wanted the Saints to win because his hit on Drew Brees was not too high, too low, or with the helmet so it should have been 49ers ball at midfield when a teammate recovered a fumble. I did not see the play but I know based on the description he was not roughing the passer.
