If you didn't think refs/calls couldn't get any worse, think again. Yes, if the Referees Union doesn't reach a deal before the season you will have reserve refs. Who have three months to learn the rule-book.

Talks between NFL and officials for new deal have broken off. NFL has advised all teams it is now working to hire replacement officials.

Refs are spoiled kids anyway so maybe the replacements will except they don't know everything and overturn a few calls. Lets get former defensive guys to do it. Brees gets creamed starts crying, ref slaps the poo out of him and tells him to suck it up.

Basically the refs will be hired from small college football conferences. If you think NFL refs are bad, you are sorely mistaken. Just watch the outcry if these pathetic replacement refs have to officiate a real game that matters.

hard to think it could get worse but I guess common sense says it probably will.

i love it when everyone gets pissed off anyway. should be fun.

those that believe that the betting circles have most of it wired anyway won't have much to worry about. those that believe that everything that happens on the field is untampered with should be terrified. cam-first idiots won't care either way.

the sane among us will be fine going into each game like always. with at cynical disdain for the zebras and an understanding that they will eff it up bigtime when given the opportunity.

      So...Those 2 Point Conversions

      I can understand the logic. Going for 2 made sense the first time considering how far down we were. Then you don't get it and are basically forced to go for it the second time, too. Way down the list of concerns we have, IMO.

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      The successful teams in the NFL right now have one thing in common: Patience. Not just with their QB, but with every facet of the program. There are going to be successes and failures, but no one panics and makes reactive decisions. Look at the Eagles, the Bills, the Ravens, the Packers, and hell, even the (newly successful) Lions. All of them showed patience with their QB's growth, let their coaches do their jobs, have drafted well, developed their own players, and plugged holes in their roster and organization with players and situations that made sense. That's what we need. And if that isn't what we have now, we need to make moves to get it there. If that means they need to blow it up to start over, then blow it up and start it over the right way. If that means to change their approach from top to bottom, change it now. But the blueprint of success is out there in the league, teams just think they know better, or they don't have the discipline to follow through.
