All this macho athlete man-lust over Taylor Swift. But the greatest gymnast in the World also was in attendance at that Packers game. Simone Biles. And she wasn't sitting in a warm booth. But these smelly jocks don't say a word about her. Very, very disrespectful. And disgusting. Simone Biles was there!!! Taylor who??? 😂😂😂
If ARod won this game Pat would be slobbering.
There is an easy fix for this problem. Make the penalties reviewable with challenge flags. There, I fixed it.
They need to implement a sky judge/always have at least one ref in NY watching the game who can call in at any time to override a call on the field.
They just did that to even the scene…. To remove any backlash of the League helping #15 with calls and plays!!!!! Suddenly he’s not that great with out the refs 😅
At this rate the nfl should just tell referees that defensive players can't touch the quarterback. There's a difference between tackling and pile driving someone into the ground.
I'll start clapping when they actually do something about it.
Two words – Sky Judge. Somebody with a video screen miced up with the crew on the field and able to chime in.
What the NFL is doing is not working. The sport needs full time refs. Then hire a group of former refs to review plays from a central location. Initially focus on the last 2 minutes of the game and then expand it out.
The League is laughing at people while they look at the refs and ignore the rules. The rules are written in such a way so there is plenty of plausible deniability when it comes to humans calling fouls. Along with that the League wants high scoring games, it's no secret. The outcomes matter less than the entertainment. Anyone would want to watch the KC-GB game, not the Chargers-NE game.
Call have always been up and down, for sure, but now with legalized gambling and every game nailing the spread it’s kinda clear something’s are fixed. It’s wild how clear and blatant these calls or non-calls are
people only focus on the end of game terrible calls. What is always missed is when the refs take over a game early like in the eagles bills game last week. The game should have been 31-0 at halftime and instead it was 17-7. Refs did their job, kept the game artificially close, kept the audience tuned in and then all anyone wanted to focus on after the game was the crazy ending and how the bills folded when it should have never even been an issue.
I’m sitting there with a room full of chiefs fans and after the majomes hit we all just stared at each other like ‘man these refs suck’. Then the make up call happened and we weren’t even surprised. Egregious.
I like that the refs didn’t call that pass interference. It was justice for the calls that Mahomes baits out playing that sideline.
Simply use the replay to overule this crap— this would be money well spent by the NFL and fans would then be satisfied. Who cares if it extends the game by 10 more minutes–at least everyone would have satisfaction..
It’s funny. People complained about the holding call at the end of the Super Bowl. Everyone was saying the refs should have just let them play late in the game. Now the refs did just that and everyone is complaining. People will never be happy with refs no matter what.
Stop betting on games when the refs know the lines and can make swings happen however they want
This is really odd. It wasn't but just a couple weeks ago the word on the streets was officials HELP the Chiefs. lol
How about the missed illegal hands to the face that should’ve gone against the packers on their miracle 4th and 1 play that they eventually scored on. The roughness on pat was a terrible call but let’s not act like the packers weren’t getting every other call in their favor
Need to have a press conference for Refs after game to answer for their calls.
Yall do realise the refs are calling the game the exact way they're told to?
When a QB becomes a runner past the line of scrimmage, they should have the same protections as any other runner would. If the league is truly concerned about safety, they should also not allow offensive players to lead with the head. Part of the problem with officiating is that the rules are so inconsistent and selective.
Bills-Eagles Ref Issues: Suck it up. Focus on what you can control
Chiefs-Packers Ref Issues: Outrage, there’s a definite problem!
Hypocrisy.
I am happy to see all the other teams are now getting the refs us Lions fans have been dealing with for years.
Full time officials are the likely answer. Better training as well. That was pass interference plain and simple
The officiating has been so bad lately its truly turning me off from the sport and I've lived and breathed football for the past 3 decades. That Sea – Dal game wasn't even watchable
This officiating nightmare is all about MONEY. I's called covering the spread. Need more proof, why the stink over Burroughs wrist injury? It turned out to be worst than reported and when he couldn't play and the Bengals lost, the bookies lost their asses on this game. Presto, big investigation into Cincy's covering up the injury in violation of the leagues injury list disclosure policy.
Dude it’s fixed
TIL that NFL refs are not full time … the whole world makes sense now.
Funny how they don’t bring this up when KC benefited from 3 bad calls this season that lead to 3 wins for them.
Now they’re trying to run with this narrative that KC gets screwed by bad call or no calls.
KC got 3 for 1 this year.
Nice try tho 😂
Seeing mr phizer sad makes my day better
The issue especially with the Mahomes hit, is that he's taken advantage of defenders pulling up on the sideline by getting a couple extra yards tiptoeing the line. Can't have if both ways.
Its called entertainment sports so much more to come
Simone Biles on the Packers sideline should be a bigger headline than Taylor Swift visiting Lambeau and sitting in a comfy suite
The NFL just needs to embrace technology. They've actually improved booth reviews quite a bit over the last few years. Some catches, TD's and turnovers get corrected within like 5 to 10 seconds after the play now. And I usually agree with Gene Steratore when they ask for his insights on calls. Just have a guy like him do a quick replay review whenever a flag is thrown, and he could communicate directly with the refs to validate or correct any calls without taking too much time. Or inform them of a penality/ruling they missed if it's clear and obvious. I don't see why that'd be hard to implement. Might just add a few minutes onto the games. But these calls are too big to not try and get right. One big pass interference call, or one bad roughing the passer call can change a game.
It'll never be perfect, but can for sure be improved. And yes. They should 100% be full-time.
At this point I can only watch bengals games because they’re my team. The rules and officiating is so awful that they’ve completely turned me off from the nfl. It’s just a complete joke how bad it is. Theres obvious bias every single game, and the refs call every game differently. They want to protect qbs I get that but at this point just make it 2 hasn’t touch on them. There’s just no way to tackle a qb anymore legally. You go low? Flag. You hit them hard? Flag. You push them out of bounds? Flag. You’re unable to break the laws of physics and land on them after a tackle? Flag. I mean it’s a complete and utter joke. NFL used to be awesome, now it’s completely unwatchable to me. Don’t understand how anyone can sit through that many commercial breaks for a product this bad.
1st, the flag on the hit on Patrick was wayyyy late aand they even got together with a conference..2nd the no PI was because they know they owed one to the Pack…thats my take
Mabye if they paid them money, or gave them full time people would want to ref? Or support them with technology and reviews?
why aren’t penalties reviewable just like any damn catch or td? like cmon
Ok everyone is bringing up certain plays in the Chiefs Packers game. They say no flag on the hit on Mahomes, yes PI on the long pass, There will never be a flag on a Hail Mary pass that's common sense, but what about the play noone is talking about it. Rice catches the ball and is pulled backward and eventually out of bounds but the refs stopped the clock when it shouldn't have. No timeouts so your looking at a spike ball or you lose 25 seconds easy.
