NFL Referees Have Reportedly Received Notable Instruction

[nate dizzle]

I have 0 doubt we will be the first team in the history of the NFL to be flagged for this.

The more air the kicker could get under the football the father, the football travels. No matter how insignificant it might seem.

I watched a kickoff where instead of placing the ball in the tee the set it on the very edge and used a holder. That is legal but shows how an inch or two of elevation can mean a lit
I suspect guys have got seen using something to get an inch or two of extra height on a FG and claiming it was just to mark the spot
Appears it won’t be legal now

 

[conner01]

Instead of placing the ball on the tee as designed they were using a holder on kickoffs to place the ball on a raised part on the back of the tee which helped the kicker get a lot of height on the ball, and to drop it in inside the ten forcing a catch and a runback. More like a punt than a kickoff but without the fair catch option.

I can't believe Belichick didn't figure that out years ago.

The raiders did it though I’m not sure what they did was illegal but may be noe
They didn’t use a foreign object but used the edge of the tee with a guy holding it

 

[BoyzBlaster]

I wonder if this has anything to do with how easy it seems 50+ yard FG's have become.

 

[OriginalNameGuy]

Sounds like an opportunity for a call no one has heard in years to be against the boys

 

[Pantone282C]

Good! Let's add one more penalty they have to call. I want to see more flags/stripes during the game. 5 hour plus games here we come!!


/endsarcasm

They could take a commercial break to play the actual game and then show us the replays.

 

[Pantone282C]

So, would a poker chip give someone that much extra height?

 

[JoeKing]

Brady is not to be touched!!

 

[Pantone282C]

Hold up there, Maher.

 

[erod]

In the meantime, every referee crew has an entirely different interpretation of what pass interference, holding, and roughing the quarterback is.

But never mind that.

 

[blueblood70]

No note on calling the game fairly and accurately?? hmmm..must have missed that memo but for sure fine and throw flags for loos fitting clothing, wrong cleats, and now some object of unknown origin LOL

 

[Pantone282C]

Special Instructions - If Cowboys are close to winning, flag the center for false start if he wrinkles his nose.

 

[cowboyec]

what about steel chairs.
coal minor's glove.
the ol' salt in the eyes when the ref's back is turned.
are they still allowed?
i'm not watchin' if they ain't.

I hate kickers, doesn't surprise me a bit they're a bunch of cheating scoundrels. I think the refs should be allowed to make them bend over and spread it, like they do in prison, to make sure they're not sneaking these "foreign objects" onto the field.

I think when kickers miss a PAT, the entire line that blocked for them should be allowed to beat hell out of them. Show them the importance of one point.

I always swore I'd make my first born son a kicker. It's the one dude on the field without elite athletic abilities or God given physical characteristics beyond a mere mortal. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying it's easy. I'm saying if you trained from a young age you can, at the least get a scholarship. The problem is, no kid wants to be a kicker. Lol

 

[Beastsfromthenfceast]

I would like to know what teams were doing this . Belicheat ?

Special Instructions - If Cowboys are close to winning, flag the center for false start if he wrinkles his nose.

If your last name is Dicker like that guy out there, then it's kinda predestined.

 

[Rayman70]

this is getting BEYOND stupid.

 

[shabazz]

The referee have been receiving notification about certain teams with a wink and a nod for decades now.

they dirty.

 

[XXLMike]

Foreign objects ?
Like Abdullah the Butcher using a fork to gnar Terry Funks skull ?

Or Mr Fuji salt in the eyes !?
