Officiating Crews


Recommended Posts

Regular season they are assigned to certain games.

 

What about pre-season?  Does the home team use the officials that are assigned to their practices?

 

I thought there were quite a few ticky tack fouls that kept New England's drives alive.   I know we got a few but not nearly enough.  

 

For example that foul on Alexander was absolutely insane.  He barely brushed the helmet. 

 

And those PI calls were bad too.  Both sides.  If the NFL is going to call those like that this year.  Someone is going to throw for 6000 yards.  You can't even breathe on a WR with a foul.

 

We got our butts handed to us.  And honestly the loss doesn't bother me at all.   However, if they were NE practice officials it wouldn't surprise me if ole Cheater Bill didn't ask for a flag here and there so he could evaluate his offense more.

OMG.  Blaming officials for a preseason loss.  This is great.

 

Wasn't blaming them.  Good God.   I thought there were some really horrendous calls and wanted to know if they use the one of the home team uses during practice. 

 

I thought some of those weak calls kept drives alive when the should have been over.  

 

You do see official during practice.  You know the guys with the stripped shirts at practice. 

 

You shouldn't pick and choose what you want to read in a post.  Read the whole thing.

It really is rediculous. Our game was bad but that philly pitt game the other night was unwatchable. I understand (occasionally) penalties in the name of safety here and there but what point is there in calling a hold or p.i. every other play? It's a physical game the refs need to use some discretion. I would imagine the idtard commish prolly focused this offseason on 'cracking down' on these types of plays for pretty much no reason.

No doubt,  That penalty on Alexander was insane.  The hand barely brushed the front of the helmet. 

 

It is going to be so bad that they might as well take off the pads and puts some flags on.

    • OL then RB would make heads explode but its might not be too unlikely 
    • Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later. 
    • I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
