So there’s no reason we should be talking about any game altering penalties for this weeks games with Blakeman and Cheffers out there. Just call it down the middle. That’s all anyone is asking. No phantom holding calls when Mixon busts a 30 yard run, no weak PIs when a Bengals corner breathes on one of Allen’s receivers. Didn’t see any of it last round, so it shouldn’t be an issue next week if they’re all reffing by the same standards.
Easy peasy.

I agree with this past weekend... unfortunately, there was still plenty of obnoxiousness around here about how the refs were all about the Bills winning yesterday and helping the Jags (or was it the Chargers, wtf knows), etc.
It was definitely a facepalm moment seeing his name tied to Bills/Bengals... everyone is really looking forward to that game for obvious reasons and hopefully they don't **** it up with inconsistency or some massive bullshit.
It's far more reeruned around here though, where basically every call against the team you're rooting for means it's rigged, no matter how blatantly correct it was... fascinating how no one in the history of rigged bullshit has ever said "I'll be damned, I figured they'd rig it for team x, but they must actually want team y to win!" ...it's just whoever they're rooting for at the moment.
