Officiating in Dal Sea game

There were a disturbing amount of missed calls everywhere that just happened to not be dramatic. Holds, illegal hands, etc. This SNF game has been loaded with them too. And they weren't examples of letting the teams play physical which I'm a fan of. That was nothing but a hold on the Rodgers first down scramble and there was no hold on the Denver defensive holding call.

Should have been a first down for Dallas, IMO. Why the refs allowed that is strange.

Yes that was strange but not as strange as the batting infraction that wasn't called against Seattle versus Detroit a few weeks ago, even though the official was totally gawking the incident.

The Hawks have now won two games they shouldn't have due to two obvious no-calls that absolutely impacted the outcome in their favor. Like the gawker, I don't think the official who blew his whistle tonight is an *. He knows you can't call back-to-back timeouts. He should be fired immediately.

Speaking of bad calls, they just screwed the Packers with that James Jones fumble.

Oh yeah, the Packers got totally hosed by the refs that game. They only gave them all 10 of their points.

 

Consider it a makeup call for the 9+ nonsense calls and non calls they got the benefit of VS DEN.

I'd gladly run off the litany of screw jobs, but I don't want to fill the page so I'll just give one example of THREE OBVIOUS DELAYS OF GAME NOT CALLED.

Visual evidence should overturn these bad calls yet the NFL refuses to insult the abilities of these incompetent officials by making certain penalties/calls non reviewable. I think everything should be reviewable by an unbiased on-site official. One who could interact with the rest of the crew in real time.

    • Pass rush.     That is the key.  Control the line.  Make him make plays.  Make him uncomfortable.  Hey, if he Stroud beats us with his talent and we’re making him complete these great plays, then chalk it up to the game.  But we can’t allow him (and any other qb) to be comfortable and pick us apart.     I hope we see our front 4 provide that pressure because that will make everything else much easier.  I honestly believe we have the corners for our scheme in Moore, Brents, and jones.  But we don’t have the pressure.  Or the FS unfortunately.  Our corners jobs in this scheme isn’t to run step for step with wide receivers.  It’s to stick with them and prevent YAC.  Moore is the best nickel in the game, Jones was one of the best corners PERIOD in preventing YAC, and I think a healthy Brents will be good too.
    • Agreed.  After this last off season, I kind of give Ballard a pass on taking long to find a certified DE (if Latu pans out).  Like QBs, they don’t grow on trees.  You either have to draft one high, get lucky with one in the draft, or sign one in FA for loads of cash.  All I can ask for him as GM to do is try.  He hasn’t been perfect by any means but at least he’s tried with the DE position specifically.   i also think Shane being here has changed his thinking.  Before, Ballard might’ve went with Turner due to the higher upside.  But maybe Shane differs and wants proven players.     Either way, I’m glad we possibly have our stud at a premium position for the next 5 years at a cheap rate.     And gotta thank the Falcons for us landing Latu.  Lol
    • Sure, but I know you're smart enough to get the gist of this post - a potent offense is more important than a good defense.     Today's NFL favors the O in the rule book and encourages scoring.  D's have to hang in there and most play it safe.   Of course, it's simple, of course it's not easy to have an elite O, and of course it doesn't always lead to wins.  But, in my opinion, it's the way a GM should build a team.  (Yes, I know about the Manning years.  That's another conversation)
