If the NFL cared they’d make all flags reversible by a replay team. I guarantee you that you’d see the best officiating you’ve ever seen and most of the time replay assist wouldn’t even be needed.

But that would require the NFL giving up the small amount of control they have left to influence games in certain situations.

The MLB has decided to take their umpires out of the game in hopes that it’ll bring fans back but it’s unlikely the NFL ever will.

There’s too many sheep that blindly follow the NFL no matter what.

I’m sick and tired of Canales being a major pussy. The refs can walk all over him and the team with no expectation of Dave fighting back. Rivera was the same way and look how they ruined Cam. I’m out on Canales.  I was holding out hope that he’d piece it together but him not standing up for his guys when it matters most is getting exhausting

Canales is a member of the millionaires/billionaires club. Why would he rock the boat and get kicked out of the club?

The NFL would gladly get rid of the refs if a lower cost and effective method were developed. Then they could bust a union and rid themselves of employees.

Or maybe they know and don't care about making it more fair.  Maybe controversial calls generate buzz and more eyes on the league in the short term.  Who knows what their motivation is other than max profit.

I thought contact was legal in the first 5 yards of the pass play.  And they said the backwards pass went out of bounds, which sounded like, "Let's make some poo up."

The rule is anything past 1 yard is offensive pass interference, however the rule is also the push off has to be to the body.  TMac pushed off the helmet.  By rule, it was NOT pass interference.  More importantly, but the way they call the several thousands downs of football per season, it wasn't offensive pass interference.  It was, to be frank, a call intentionally made by the officials to negate a very big play to help the Bucs win.

      A pretty insane QB stat

      By Bama Panther · Posted

      I think an interesting follow up would be how many of those QBs went on to win a Super Bowl at all. From some quick chatGPT questions, it seems only 3 of them (Eli Manning, Matthew Stafford, and Sam Darnold) have gone on to win a Super Bowl as a starter.  While teams picking in the top 5 generally aren’t great organizations, I think the fact that 34/37 haven’t won Super Bowls can’t just be pinned on the organizations. Maybe quite a few of those guys never should have been top 5 picks. Here’s looking at guys like Blake Bortles, Mitch Trubisky, Joey Harrington, Bryce Young, Tua, Mark Sanchez, and the list goes on and on. Maybe there is just something wrong with QB draft evaluations, as many analysts thought the majority of those 37 dudes were top 5 picks.

      I honestly wouldn't draft a QB if my team earned the first pick, unless we're talking Luck, Cam or Stafford level talent available. Generational type guys that can lift a bad team. They are rare breeds though. Trade back for a king's ransom and come back when you've gotten your ish together - see Chicago bears.  As far as yards and scores trending down, I think it has a lot to do with how teams are playing defense now. Most defenses are in some form of nickel/dime most of the game, with exotic blitz packages using DBs to pressure the QB. They're taking away the passing game, and teams built to pass without a complimentary run game to keep the defense honest will struggle.  Maybe RBs will become top draft picks again.

      How many made it to the SB?  Cam was drafted #1 and almost won, do we think he wasn't worth the pick?  lol   Same with Joe Burrow.
