They have killed the last two Bills offensive drives with awful calls, and extended Cleveland's TD drive with an awful call. God, Goodell needs to stop being such a cheap bastard and pay the regular refs now. I love that a multi-billion dollar company can't find the money to hire full-time officials.
The officiating in this game is absolutely atrocious

From what I understood the NFL WANTS full-time refs with enough crews for a "replacement" crew if need be. Our regular clowns that we ***** so often about are the ones that don't want to run the risk of actually being held accountable.Originally posted by notaconThe biggest thing we learned from the Bills is that they are a resilient bunch and did what they had to do to win instead of past years where they fold like a cheap lawn chair.

Re: The officiating in this game is absolutely atrocious
I thought one of the obstacles was the NFL's desire to scrap the pension plan for the part time officials. The league hires other part time people and does not pay them pensions and they wanted to extend that policy to the officials. The officials, obviously don't want to budge on that. Can't say as I blame them. Even though they don't depend on their income for officiating, it is very difficult to give up something you already have in a labor dispute. It never seems fair when you're the ones being asked to give it up.I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
