Refs Blow Call Seahawks Win

[Mike]

- 3 Refs miss a clear foul as Seahawks player intentionally bats fumble out of end zone
- a 10 yard penalty should have been assessed and ball given to Lions
- it was within 2min and it could have been reviewed


= Should have been 1st & Goal at 6 inch line with a 1:30 min left in game down by 3

Refs Impact the Result of yet another Game!

Here's ESPN's explanation
There is No conspiracy or favoritism it's just poor quality control & officiating consistency

Refs have been a disgrace this year.

I'd bet the only ref who knew the rule was the guy on ESPN.

But I can hear Hank Stram from his grave, screaming "how can all 6 of you miss that play?"

And Bryce Brown smiled when Megatron did his thing.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Refs aren't perfect - did ya know that? Watch football at ground level in real time and see if you can make the perfect call every time. Even so, the ball was going OOB anyway and it probably looked like he was trying to field it. If not, RW had 2min on the clock left..

I absolutely recognize that the refs have a nearly impossible job.

However, this is why I am such a proponent of penalty instant replay review.

Re: Refs Blow Call Seahawks Win

Why not have dedicated cameras and officials view the film. They call it from booth with only two actual field refs to relay that information?

i get that the game is fast. But with a legislative book that is becoming absurd, pretending they know all the rules is tiring

Can't fault the ref, clearly he didn't have a good look at it.

I agree with your point on instant replay review for penalties.

How could that be done? More coaches challenges?

You can't review them all, I don't think.

That would have added about 30 more stoppages in Sunday's game if all we reviewed.

It's Pete Carroll so there is some kind of conspiracy. Maybe it doesn't involve the refs but I have a hard time believing he's not pulling a Belicheck somehow based on his history at USC.

Re: Refs Blow Call Seahawks Win

That's the problem with refs, they're human, therefore imperfect. There needs to oversight, and stop trying to sell these part timers as unquestionably sound.
