Real refs coming back!

Per league sources, the NFL and NFLRA are closing in on a deal, still talking details.

Looks like the NFL refs will be working starting Thursday in Balt. Deal appears to be completed

Also, the funniest tweet I think I've read yet:

Eric Stangel@EricStangel

Any second now Colin Cowherd is going to argue that the NFL replacement refs are better than the real ones...

I'm curious what happened with the "refs currently have no accountability during the season because their job is at least secure until the end of the season" point. Hopefully the league won that one, and can review ref performance throughout the season and take action as necessary. I know the refs got a pay bump, they met at middle ground on the pension, and the league won for all intents and purposes on the "backup squad of officials" point. Those 4 issues are the main ones I've heard of.

    • I have no strong opinion either way. I mean, for those who are out, do you really expect Tepper to hire anyone better? So far, Canales has probably been his best coaching hire. Granted, that's an extremely low bar to clear but I'm just saying it's not like there's a line of great candidates beating down the door begging to work for Tepper. Going 5-5 with the worst QB play in the league isn't terrible. Now with that said, I expect to start getting the hell beaten out of us now that the Saints have shown what I thought was obvious all along - sell out against the run and stack the box and absolutely force us to have to throw the ball and it basically makes the game unwinnable for a Bryce Young QB'd team.
    • You're letting your hatred for him cloud your judgement, you can't say with 100% certainty that Bryce can't play anywhere else, especially since everyone here said the same about Darnold and Mayfield and are now backtracking to say "well they had the skills all along"... absolutely nobody was saying that at the time. You are forgetting that the Panthers are currently a poverty franchise that taints everything they touch, it is absolutely in the realm of possibility that Bryce sits for a few years and then looks like Mac Jones does right now. But I agree that it won't happen here, and the Panthers have to move on.
    • That was me. Overall it has tightened up. Kickoffs are good. FGs are good normally. Punting game is good. PR isn’t bad. I didn’t see what happened on the block, who let the guy through. I knew we were putting a couple of new guys out there but thought they we gunner types. Chisena.
