    Does the NFL not care about tarnishing their product with this shit?

    All these ridiculous roughing the passer calls, the ticky tacky calls on PI, the calls on players who are not even involved or near the actual play, the taunting calls.

    IT’S FOOTBALL! You can’t remove all the danger, you shouldn’t remove all the fun and ego, and you can only mitigate. I’m so tired of watching 10-15 flags per game.

    refs were doing all they could to keep minnesota in this game. The Bears were also doing all they could to keep them in the game though. It’s insane that we won this and I fucking hate it.

    Refs in all sports have beccoke awful after sports betting started being pushed. It’s like they do whatever they want with no regard to the sport

    This penalty is unhinged. I remember awhile back Keanu Neal got penalized 15 yards for taking off his helmet after going down with a torn Achilles in the end zone. Shit is ridiculous

    A college football team lost a game this year when a QB got his helmet mostly knocked off by the defender on the game tying two point conversion play and he grabbed it with his hand and held it there. Got flagged for taking his helmet off, 15 yards on the kickoff. Opposing team had just enough time to position themselves for a last-second 48 yarder, got it blocked, but got a redo on a 15 yard personal foul for hitting the longsnapper.

    Game very likely goes to OT without the penalty.

    In a year where football teams have been so bad, the reffing is keeping up with the trend.

    There needs to be a fucking NFL reboot at this point.

    Chiefs player took off his helmet in front of the ref a couple weeks ago as he was yelling at another player… this was all on the field and no flag.

    This then gets a flag. This is why refs stink to high heaven.

    Kids named “Kyler” are old enough to play in the NFL now… damn I’m getting old.
