NFL officiating has absolutely gone to sh-t in the last ten years or so.

Instructions like the one I mentioned above are probably part of that, but for whatever reason, the quality has just become terrible.

Part of it is with replay getting better and better, you can see the mistakes. But the majority of it really is there is no consistency from one game to the next on what "insert penalty here" really is. DJ gets an unsportsmanlike for taking his helmet off outside the field of play. Countless other players take theirs off in the middle of the field to celebrate and crickets. What defines a catch? What is PI? Holding? WTF is considered a sack vs roughing the passer? You can't expect coaches, players, and fans not to constantly call bullshit when there is zero continuity on how a game is called.

I mean, is he wrong?  Sometimes stupid need to be called out.  Granted Butker still could have made a reeeeallly long attempt, but that 15 extra yards sure helped.  Would have been, what 56 yards in single digit temperatures?

Like it matters? If he had to kick a 56 yarder there would've been a flag thrown just in case he missed to scoot him up for the retry. Just how that game was shaping up.

      Honestly, I have only one pair of white shoes (only because they were new and like $4 from the Goodwill) other than my easily-cleaned Crocs. A man's got to think ahead.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      By shaq · Posted

      Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
