JJkizak Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 How do you properly officiate a continuous dogfight (Holding, grabbing, pushing, tripping, elbowing, spitting, swearing, and some I can't think of) between the defensive back and the receiver and still call it clean?

The Patriots had 5 pass interference calls against them this whole year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many things will never be clear as on how to call it, but consistency would help, and of course very obvious calls. 8 minutes ago, Ceptorman said: And some teams seem to get away with much more from the officials.

If the NFL wants to save any credibility some changes need to be made, especially on calls that can change the outcome of a game. People have been complaining about blatant calls or noncalls for a long time and it gets ignored. Just consider the billions changing hands in a year of games just in parties, cost of going to games and merchandise, and gambling. The NFL has a lot to lose if they get a bad reputation and there have already been rumors for a couple of years about it being rigged. Technology has improved a lot over the last couple of years much of this could all be reviewed in a fair time to at least eliminate obvious calls, they already send reviews to people watching in NY. It's not like the NFL and the tax-exempt billions couldn't afford to have more people watching who could buzz the refs on the field to at least huddle up when something obvious is missed, they all have earpieces already. Or have a couple more refs on the field to watch for anything that looks abnormal, I say this because the refs say none of them seen that play, somehow? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1290 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 This is exactly why I don't sit around watching NFL football. Watching college is bad enough. Carry on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceptorman Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 My heart isn't into this year's Super Bowl. Tired of seeing the Patriots there. Then thought a Brees/Brady showdown would be good, but that was robbed. I guess I want the Rams to win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC39693 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 More important re. Josh Gordon, the news said the Pats are paying for (at least some, I guess) his rehab. Call me a sucker. I hope the young man gets his life straightened out, whether he ever plays football again or not. He needs to fix a lot of personal problems!
