That's what you got from this?

These replacements have done a credible job.

They've only blown a couple of obvious calls that the regular refs wouldn't have, perhaps.

But I also know that the regular refs have been nearly as bad each and every preseason.

By the time the regular season rolls around, the couple or three major issues that I've seen, and I've been watching preseason all weekend, will be cleared up for the most part.

The chick can stay as long as she promises to use her clothes as the yellow flags.

That would be awesome when she's on the rag.

Oh the confusion!

We won't know if it's penalty or a challenge!

Mass hysteria!

The fix was in for sure.

I was thinking the exact same thing. :thumb:

They called holding against Hali for once. I love em'!

Seriously, these replacements haven't been nearly as bad as portrayed, and the regular officials have never been all that good.
This! I'm sure they made mistakes, but they all do, and nobody seems to care (because of pride) to help them get it right. We have replay, but they've made that a game too...

That being said, nothing is as bad as baseball's balls and strikes. So there's nothing to see here (by comparison), let's move on...

I'll just be happy to see some calls go the Chiefs way, 50/50 will do, for a change....

The regular officials are just as bad.

The League will correct this and less than 10% of holds on Hali will be called by the start of the regular season.

:mad:

I just can't get on the "Regular officials were bad so these replacements are okay" bandwagon. There's a reason these refs were coaching Div III college football. There's a reason they were coaching Lingerie league football. There's a reason they were kicked out of some leagues for bad officiating.

Regular officials may be bad, but this could be a disaster. The best officials out there came from the 3rd best division in college football. They're not used to reffing over some of the best athletes in the world. They might look good reffing over scrubs in the 2nd to 4th quarter, but what happens when they have to ref over 1st stringers for a full game?

Ace Gunner 08-12-2012 09:53 PM
Kudos to the refs in KC the other night -- they allowed me to view an NFL game without any "defensless WR" calls. Can't remember the last time that happened.

I can live with mistakes by refs. But there are too many freekin rules.
