We were ROBBED!!

[Wheat]

the NFL is at an all-time low with their Refs this year. Has it cost some teams game? Yes. It has.

They blew two easy calls in the Giants/Seattle game...and told Holgrem it was wrong (only if he didn't make the information public). San Diego claims to be screwed in the game against Dallas. Washington claims to be screwed with the Plummer tuck/fumble.

I'm sure there are a lot of pissed Bronco fans this morning.

Overall they suck all over the place. The only team that hasn't been screwed enough to perhaps lose a game, is Indy.

The NFL doesn't even employ Refs full time. Billion dollar industry....I think they can afford it.

Also, the replay policy needs a tweak. If its an awful call like a pass interference, or a hold. You should be able to challenge it.

Remember how everyone made fun of Gibbs and his "blaming the refs" schtick?

the worst part was, the NFL issued apologizes for his complaints. 2 weeks in a row on Wed afternoons....they'd report on Sportstalk 980 that the NFL has reviewed the plays submitted by Joe Gibbs and said his assesments were correct.

blah, blah, blah. Get it right during the game.

The refs did not cost us the game..end of story.

That play was possibly a fumble, which could have given us 7 points.

Also, we lost an INT by Keith Davis, to a bogus pass interference call.

I also thought that the D-lineman was offsides on the play where he caused the fumble and the Giants scored 7...at least that's the way it looked in slow mo. IMO

When you play a team that is as good as you, you have to get some breaks in order to win.

The Giants got the breaks and they won, as they should have.

I haven't complained all year about the refs but yesterday was awful.

During the first drive on the 3rd and long Manning fumbled! and it would have been returned for a TD giving us the early momentum. The replayed showed his arm never went forward even after the ball came out.


The int then the late pass interference was called was just awful. There was no inference! unless it was offensive interference. Glenn even held his arms back to show he wasn't doing anything. The WR ran into him hoping the refs would call interference.


The Key play where the defender hit him early. That was a easy call to make.

I don't like to make excuses but today I am.

I would have trown in the red flag on that play, definately!

 

[rynochop]

Remember JJ's big reception run in the second half? They missed Key's block in the back that should have negated it.

and the horse collar by Roy...

bad officiating on both sides yesterday.

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

not complaining about ref's because it does nothing but I did notice that Osi pushed Witten when he was running to where the ball was going? Witten pointed it out to... we were gaining some momentum at the time.... just wondering if anyone saw that?

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

The only robbing going on right now is the O'linemen cashing their paychecks. These guys are truling horrible. 5 guys cant even block 3 guys? Pathetic play.

 

[AmericasTeam31]

Problem with the Manning "fumble" is that the play was blown dead by another quick whistle, therefore it's not reviewable. When will they learn to swallow those damn whistles on ANY and EVERY play where the ball comes loose. More teams lose field position and points by this than anything else. Although this isn't why we lost, it's just another contributing factor.

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Did anyone look at the illegal contact call on Fujita?

I specifically counted the yards on the replay and it was no more than 4 yards past the line of scrimmage. Geez! You have to let the defender play!

 

[juck]

all your points are very true,horris calls,well,it would be nice to see manning vs. manning for the public huh?what a joke.
