Does it matter? No, but THE REFS


The Question

Recommended Posts

To be honest I can’t recall a game this year that I’ve truly been upset at the officiating until yesterday. Yes we had no kicker, yea our offensive line is made of sourdough. Alas, yesterday it seemed like the Bills were allowed to hold at free will and multiple bad calls to help Josh get down the field. Did anyone else notice? Does anyone care? Idk

I thought the call for unsportsmanlike conduct after we stopped them on 3rd down was clearly a homer call.

Tbh … the crowd here will disagree, but we probably win 1-3 games without the poor officiating. They are absolute momentum

changers, and I can think of at least 5 different games with drives where we could have ended with points before the zebras phantom calls came into play.

Bad officiating is just more apparent the longer you're bad. You just start waiting for the "other shoe to drop" and so every little thing becomes another frustration.

The reality is this team needs everything to go right to have success... So it's easier to see the problems with officiating as costing us more, because we can't overcome any calls at all.

I could see that, and, yes the striped boobs have made me angry this season, but we still haven't had the mettle to overcome like good teams do.

Both Burns shoulders were grabbed from behind and the refs ignored it and he would have had a sack on that play. It was clear as day. Burns got held a few times by their terrible tackle.

The more you throw the more the refs will help your team generally speaking. Running a lot is a sign of a bad QB, boring to casual fans, and punished by refs. We've got to get a QB.

Dallas game was egregiously bad. 

I'll take your word for yesterday. First game I've intentionay decided to not watch since 2006.

Yeah the Dallas game when they made their first drive to score they we're holding to open up those massive rushing lanes and nothing was called.

    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
    • We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
