NFL Refs are a joke

[Midnightangel]

No one is sucking up to the Pats haters. But your playing the role of the blind homer incapable of seeing things for what they are is not helping and never helps. Way over blown are you really that dumb? How many times has an NFL coach been fined that heavy a fine over something being overblown? How many times has a team had to give up a draft pick because something is over blown. Whats overblown is your dumbass defense of Spygate. I am not sucking up I live in the real world not the fake Patriot homer world that you reside in. It's fans like you that create Pats haters its pitiful and real Patriot fans, pre Brady fans would be better of without you.

And that's part of why us other fans can't let it go - because there are Pats fan out there that think BB did this for 7 years for no reason whatsoever. Must have had stock in Kodak film he was trying to jack up. He kept notes for no reason whatsoever, either. The rule exists just to take up space in the rule book.

Watching the Saints/Atlanta game and seeing Matt Ryan take a nasty blow to the head right in front of the ref without a call a week after a very questionable call for a far less egregious hit by Brooks on Brees that was a game changer....

At that moment, I realized that I actually believed my rants about the NFL protecting certain players more than others. I used to just say it out of frustration, but its fucking true. They will protect a marquee QB more than other player/other QB. The game is slightly rigged in this way and its becoming more and more obvious. However the NFL is going to make the most money, is how they will ref games.

I don't agree Breaker. The NFL is not rigged. The NFL is seeing a lot of bad calls / no calls right now. They are making bad calls because they are overthinking. You see pass interference in the endzone against New England, you throw the flag and then you start trying to decide if the guy who was being pushed out of the endzone, could have caught the ball. WTF? It was interference! Make the call and get out of the way!
That was not rigged, that was bad judgement.
