Should the NFL fine the Refs for blown calls?
Or are they going to make them re-viewable?
I like hitting the refs in the wallet but reviewing is most likely the way it will happen. Both would be better than the BS circumstances that a review would be allowed.
To make things worse, the NFL's vice president of officiating, Al Riveron, actually admitted to Payton that there were a total of two missed penalties on the play. "[The league] said not only was it interference, but it was helmet-to-helmet," Payton said. "There were two calls [the refs missed], they couldn't believe it. We spoke initially, then I called to follow up and the first thing Al said when I got on the phone, 'We messed it up.'" Cook's facemask... Before the 2 minute warning: We used an illegal pic and should have been flagged for OPI, which was uncalled, to get back the lead with a 38-yard pass to Watkins, Did the non-call that Belichick went crazy over (tossing his computer) have anything to do with the "Roughing" call that never happened? Was Ford penalized (late) for offsides payback for a non called penalty? Remember, If Belichick got a review of the pass to Watkins, the ball would have been brought back plus 15 yards or 2nd+25 in Pat's territory) IMHO the game may have been over, right there Should that Line Judge, in Saints game, have a nice $5K or $10K missing from this check for the game? Should they fire him? Or should all calls in a playoff game be reviewed by New York? Wait it's more complicated than that.... Should all plays inside 2 minutes be reviewed or should coaches be able to challenge anything at anytime? IMHO: Reviews of non calls will never happen anytime soon. The NFL will never levy a penalty against a referee for a non-call. I doubt they would even acknowledge a call like Chris Ford's "Roughing" as a bad call. With enough pressure there may be penalty reviews but reversing non-calls isn't going to happen without "Watson" being listed as a Striped Shirt" |

Yes, the should. The NFL has to figure out the bush league officiating some how, some way.
Also, there needs to be a video official up in the booth that can reverse blatantly missed calls or thrown flags. Only the blatant ones like the roughing call on Jones, and the missed PI in the Saints/Rams. At least for the playoffs they need something like that. |

Saw a rumor that Riveron is going to be fired soon.

I've, for years, wanted to put together a website that posts screenshots, videos, etc. of every blown call in the NFL. User submitted or something like that. Publicly shame them into doing their jobs correctly.

They can say they’ll fine then, but would they actually do it?
Need to suspend, place on probation or fire these ****s.

The NFL is going to have to fix this problem somehow.
They wanted a bigger audience and they got it. That also means they got a whole lot of people who can take screen shots, post slo-mo sequences, evaluate plays from every conceivable angle, and keep those mistakes in front of the public forever. This cannot continue another year. Coaches and owners are fed up. The excuse is usually the "human element" of the game. That's fine, but humans are not only flawed, they can be biased. That raises issues the NFL doesn't want. FAX |

Yes. All of the above.
Fine. Suspend. Fire. Allow one coach challenge, even within the last 2 minutes. Three of the last four Chiefs playoff games have come down to a shitty ref call.

The NFL is to blame in the sense that they have turned everything into a judgement call.

They gotta hire refs as full time employees with good pay and a high watermark for success.
I'm shocked how bad the refs have gotten, just like our defense,

The sad, scary side is that these are supposed to be the best working the post season games!

Any fines imposed on refs would be a waste as they are just carrying out and delivering the NFL game choices

Ref crews, not all star refs for playoffs.
