MNF: Lions at Packers

[bradshaw2ben]

Lions are tired of being slapped around, apparently. Huge flea flicker to start the game, another big pass play, driving again... up 10-0 at end of 1.

[Jobu]

And then some inexplicable penalties allows the Packers a TD... And momentum.

And just for the record...Lions have a 4 game winning streak against GB.

[bradshaw2ben]

This is a bullshit personal foul. The hitter went low, hit shoulder to shoulder. Packers' coaches are asking for an ejection. Like they've never seen a defensive play before. Cheap, cheap foul in a close game.

Yep. Guy was going for the interception. Just a football play. Ridiculous penalty.

[bradshaw2ben]

holy uncalled offside

[SteelerDayTrader]

lol.....the nfl is a manipulated media $$$ driven joke....

the tv ref says its a catch.....outlines correctly why

then after the commercial.....the accomplice on the field after the NY office gets a chance to weigh in......says no catch

tv ref then agrees and acts like he didnt just outline otherwise....lol

this is a multi billion $$$ reality show....not a sport at all

[Jobu]

Wow what a shit hands to the face call. Shitty call on a crucial play.

[bradshaw2ben]

OMG WTF???

A hands to the face call where the DL never touched the other guy's face or neck.

That was a complete horeshit call. Wiped out a sack and turned it into a first down

[El Kabong]

Holy crap what a TD pass

[Jobu]

And there’s the GB TD that should have never been...

[bradshaw2ben]

Great throw. That never should have counted.

[AirRescueFF]

There are zero real consequences for piss poor officiating. Which is why I believe it continues.

Parry is a fucking idiot to try to associate that call under "subjective" when Booger stated that this should be included as reviewable. As expected, nothing out of Parry when Booger correctly stated it isn't a subjective call.

I don’t think more replay is the true answer. Maybe the league needs to start hitting these guys in the wallet for piss poor calls. Although I’m sure the refs union would object...

Yeah, was just pointing out how wrong the comment by Parry was, like his fellow officials.

The union is exactly why there are no penalties, outside of costing them officiating the playoffs. Players get fined/penalized for unintentional mistakes...even getting utterly shitty fines like Tuitt's shove last week. They have zero incentive to improve.

The sheer fact that there is a disparity in the number of the kinds of penalties called, depending on the crew, are proof in itself.

[AirRescueFF]

BULLSHIT.

[Jobu]

And they call the same bullshit penalty again.

Yep.

[bradshaw2ben]

I don't even know what to say. There's just no way you can make that call in that situation. None. The worst call of the year. They absolutely handed the Packers a game they would have lost otherwise.

[AirRescueFF]

Fuck you Parry. Fucking apologist.

[AirRescueFF]

Thanks NFL. You make it easier each and every season for me to be more productive a few more hours every week.

[Orangesteel]

What kind of horseshit officiating was that?

My god there has been some awful calls so far this year. Makes the whole damn sport seem so manufactured.

I’m way more interested in hockey at this point.

True on the reality clown show

Manipulated for outcomes. Players sign the waiver.....don’t tell the customers it’s a sham

How bout that rushing TD circus (awesome we can post images directly now )

No one signs a waiver. In fact I would bet only the 32 owners and 1 or 2 lifers in Goodell's office are in on it.

The 1st step is get everyone convinced officiating can be better although REAL people in the know already know its impossible because it will ALWAYS be someones judgement. That doesnt change if its at game speed or milisecond by milisecond. .......mission accomplished

2nd step is get all of the crucial decision making coming from or heavily influenced by one source.......check

3rd step is make sure that one source is either in on it or heavily influenced by the connected powers that be........check

4th step is make sure you "decision maker" can interject into games at any time......check

5th step is castrate any and all personal investment and power from on the field refs but at the same time insulate them from all blame or responsibility......check

6th step is let the scheme work and dont worry about the small details. If one gets away from you so what. Whats the worst that can happen ?? A real sporting event might occur ?? Lol. You can always issue more "areas for improvement" from the top of the totem pole to the unsuspecting and unknowing but well paid and would like to keep it that way NFL co-conspirators know as NFL employees and refs.

7th step. Sit back and collect the $$$$$. Hookers and blow for everyone(at the top) !!! You like washy washy Mistah Kraff ??

Quoting yourself ? Why?

[Ice]

I accidentally did it trying to edit a post a few days ago.

[AirRescueFF]

Just read the ref's "explanations" on the BS calls. I honestly can't believe the shit that comes out of their mouths. How they can look themselves in the mirror without disgust is beyond me. It's like they are in the Matrix or something. Worse every single year and nothing tangible is being done about these clowns. They should also be embarrassed that the networks have to hire rules experts to TRY TO interpret these calls. And if teams rightly criticize? A fine. How hypocritical is that?

If this is accurate, just more fuel to the dumpster fire.

[COR-TEN]

Are these the two penalties?

https://deadspin.com/a-pair-of-phantom- ... 1839048683

Did anybody notice the shove to the helmet at the end of the sequence on the first penalty? I could argue that if I had too.

The second was harder to tell, but it looked like a clean play. But neither one of those was as egregious as others I've seen. The roughing the passer against Ola, IIRC, was worse.

[Donnie Brasco]

Check the spread...that explains it all

Vegas was gonna get theirs and they did, just like always
