Officiating crew for 49ers game

[Risen Star]

For those fixated on officiating.

 

[DeaconMoss]

Less flags gives advantage to the more physical team. Advantage 49ers.

 

[Coogiguy03]

So you're saying we have a chance of winning??? Maybe someone can call holding on Micah's behalf

 

[Aven8]

After watching the condensed game from last year I see why a lot of these penalties happened. SF is so dang fast!

Bill Vinovich: Referee Penalty Trends & Betting Stats


Bill Vinovich is the epitome of a “let ’em play” NFL referee. This means that Vinovich’s officiating crews typically don’t favor team offenses — and therefore you may find opportunity when betting the Under.


Last season in 2021, Vinovich and his crew called the fewest penalties per NFL game:


average of 9.06 penalties per game
average of 75 yards penalized per game
called the fewest (zero!) roughing the passer penalties in 2021
fewest defensive holding penalties per game
the 2nd fewest pass interference penalties
Over the past six seasons, Vinovich’s lack of penalty calling has resulted in a:


61-36-2 UNDER record (63%) for his career
25-14-2 UNDER (65%) in Divisional match-ups for his career
10-6 UNDER (63%) in the 2021 NFL season
Vinovich has been the head referee in the Super Bowl twice: in Super Bowl LIV (Chiefs vs 49ers) & Super Bowl XLIX (Seahawks vs Patriots).


A final point supporting Vinovich’s “let ’em play” philosophy: Every NFL bettor & fan remembers the Rams vs. Saints 2019 NFC Championship game:


Known in New Orleans as the “NOLA NO-CALL” when Saints WR Tommy Lee Lewis was tackled by Rams CB Nickell Robey Coleman at the 13-yard line but no flag was thrown.


It probably cost the Saints a spot in the Super Bowl and highlights again why it’s not just the penalties called we focus on, but which NFL referee is LESS likely to make that big call — which is equally as impactful in many cases.

I just hope they let ‘em play! Hate the ticky tacky crap.

There's two sides to that coin. An officiating crew that swallows the whistle favors a physical team like San Fran.

Are they the ones that called the LAC/Jaquars game?

Last years crew handicapped the Cowboys with 14 penalties and then didn't want to spot the ball when there was plenty of time to do that.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

I like Bill.

Let's go!

A bit OT I don't watch the Bucs all that much but I noticed Aikman/Buck mentioning that their DL is well known for holding on a lot of plays.
Think we got one call the entire game.

Was that overblown by Aikman or were they really holding a lot?

That being said, hopefully it's a fair called game this week. Hate when there's infractions being ignored most of the game in the trenches then in the 4th they decide to call one.

 

[Mankster]

The Niners probably won’t be happy. This crew did their SuperBowl against the Chiefs.

Dallas is a more physical team this year.
SF looks more physical because they beat up on weak teams.

Will still be a tough fought game.

Ah, here it is. First ref thread of the week. Over/Under 3.5.

Let's go!!!!!!

They beat up on us last year with more or less the same personnel. We have our shot though.

I don't get much into who is refereeing the games, but now that its brought to my attention on who the lead referee is and how he calls games, its kind of aggravating. You think the NFL would want consistency with their referees so there are no such comparisons like this vs other referees. I know the penalties or non calls work both ways, but when it works unfavorably against your team it tends give you the notion how badly referees impact the outcome of a lot of games. A missed holding call on a 3rd and long where the team converts or a missed PI that would have been a TD. These things really do have a definite impact on the final result. I am glad I do not bet NFL football.

Let me tell you something. Those 14 flags against the cowboys in the last game against SF didn’t help.

..lol.. .good Omen, for us. ..

my favorite ref.

If Dallas had a coach from the Shanahan family tree, they could look tough and play tough. Dallas hasn't been dominant on the ground since Callahan left.
