Blatant Screw Job By These Refs

Yeah, it's been a major poo show. NFL don't care though, they won't ever do anything to the refs. Shitty refs will never get better until the NFL ACTUALLY starts holding them responsible for horse poo calls.

They won't do anything because these agendas to influence the games in specific ways is coming from the NFL themselves.  As I've said for as long as I can remember - anytime big money is involved, anything can be corrupted.  Seeing poo like tonight legit made me have horrific flashbacks to Superbowl 50 and realizing that none of our team's hardwork or accomplishments meant anything, because I was watching everything our guys worked for just stolen from us, right in front of our very eyes, and there was nothing we could do about it.  I felt so sick and violated.  We knew what was happening, and we couldn't do anything to stop it, no matter what we tried.

Luckily it seems like it was more of a "hey, keep the Texans in the game" screw job than a "hey, make sure the Texans win" screw job.

The easiest "tell" when it comes to a game with a partial agenda is when a team mysteriously gets holding calls on their offense plays and pass interference and illegal contact calls on key defensive plays.  Illegal contact being a dead ringer.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
