Anyone think Goodell will make a statement tomorrow regarding the major fuck up from tonight's game? I can't wait to hear what he has to say.

I'm being 100% serious when I say I hope Paul Allen may steps and concedes the win. This is really bad publicity for his team. All that "perennial underdog" rep the Hawks have had is now dashed. |

The UFC's Dana White constantly tells fighters that complain about judges decisions that they should fight better and not leave the outcome of the fight up to judges. The Packers should have played better and they wouldn't have been in position to let incompetent officiating determine the outcome of the game.
Still, as a Viking fan, I laughed for an hour. The cheeseheads around here are going to be on fire this morning. |

Basically what these ref's determined is that if the ball is picked, the receiver just has to keep a hand on the ball till they go down, and it's ruled simultaneous possession
I may catch flak for saying this, while the ref's suck, they just are not up to speed for NFL games. It's hard to blame them, because of them we can even have a season. It takes 5 years for even a Div 1 college ref to eligible for the NFL. |

As I mentioned before, there was an entire article this week on the Falcons and how they handle West Coast games (they leave a day earlier). West Coast teams are also statistically less likely to win on the East Coast if they have an early game. |

This is the 2nd year in a row the Niners were scheduled East coast games back to back. Rather than fly home between games, they stayed in Youngstown, Ohio to avoid the problems that come with jet lag and time differences. ETA, wasted post 223 on this crap

It's Official :
The following is a statement issued by the NFL regarding Golden Tate's game-winning touchdown catch at the conclusion of Monday night's game between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks: In Monday's game between the Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks, Seattle faced a 4th-and-10 from the Green Bay 24 with eight seconds remaining in the game. Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson threw a pass into the end zone. Several players, including Seattle wide receiver Golden Tate and Green Bay safety M.D. Jennings, jumped into the air in an attempt to catch the ball. While the ball is in the air, Tate can be seen shoving Green Bay cornerback Sam Shields to the ground. This should have been a penalty for offensive pass interference, which would have ended the game. It was not called and is not reviewable in instant replay. When the players hit the ground in the end zone, the officials determined that both Tate and Jennings had possession of the ball. Under the rule for simultaneous catch, the ball belongs to Tate, the offensive player. The result of the play was a touchdown. Replay Official Howard Slavin stopped the game for an instant replay review. The aspects of the play that were reviewable included if the ball hit the ground and who had possession of the ball. In the end zone, a ruling of a simultaneous catch is reviewable. That is not the case in the field of play, only in the end zone. Referee Wayne Elliott determined that no indisputable visual evidence existed to overturn the call on the field, and as a result, the on-field ruling of touchdown stood. The NFL Officiating Department reviewed the video today and supports the decision not to overturn the on-field ruling following the instant replay review. The result of the game is final. |

They aren't losing anything as far as bargaining power with the union. Ratings are CLIMBING. I assume everyone wants to watch what might happen next. They are making money hand over fist. And replacement refs will only get better as they get more experience... They are in no hurry to cave to the regular officials demands. Especially when they are unreasonable.

I would say the offense was great til the pressure was on. They are a poor football team. Poorly coached and sorely lacking talent at key positions . They will be lucky to win 8 games this year. I know you are never supposed to say this but... has Dick Labeau lost his magic? We haven't had a pass rush in 3 years and run stopping has been questionable at best the last 2 yrs. The young D-linemen aren't really developing and the linebackers areok at best. The secondary...ok... but they get exposed with zero pass rush... maybe it's just me. I am quickly coming around to what youre saying. I mean for fucks sake, Id rather he sent 7 and play man to man , at least if you get burnt you were at least TRYING to get some pressure. So many of the big name guys are done. Harrison is done, Troy is pretty much done. Woodley is nothing but a check casher now. He is worthless. Hampton? Done. Keisel?? Meh. Foote was done 5 years ago. Timmons sucks, Worilds makes Timmons look like Jack Lambert . |

I honestly thought Schaub had a broken face when I saw that at real speed. Tough dude. |
