people with reason to back the nfl always have at least a little bit of a case to scream about ACHSKULLY THE REFS ARE FINE
sunday was annoying and lame but not the worst. but still annoying to end the game on an overturn there, when we’ve seen way clearer calls stand
the rams literally got the SB handed to them over the bengals on that 3rd down holding call, for example…
Seahawks fan here, I’ll never forget a Superbowl was stolen from us by the refs. It’s a massive bummer to think about that game and the apologies from the head ref years later confirming what I already knew.
But I just try and remember that it’s part of the game. Just like an ump with an off strike zone, you just hope that it’s consistent on both teams.
I don’t think the refs pick sides but I do think they can’t help but see differences when it comes to colors. Some teams will get a natural advantage and disadvantage because of the colors on their uniforms.
