The NFL has officially turned into a joke. That play may have been one of the worst calls I have ever seen in my life...

Roger Goodell has really put himself in a hole now that I think he has to accept the refs demands. Some teams are going to miss the playoffs because of these calls ....

Oh and not to mention the spread tonight was Seattle +3.5 ....so that call conveniently put them ahead.

What a joke

I think that call was as bad or worse than this one.

I love the NFL, but I can't deal with these awful calls every single week.

You don't have to call holding on almost EVERY single play...geez.

Hahahahha oh man this is getting better and better...

@Deadspin: The Lingerie Football League just announced that they had to fire multiple current NFL crews because of incompetence. http://t.co/odCypYqp

@jsitton71: That was bullshit. This is getting ridiculous! The NFL needs to get the refs back bfr we strike and they make no money!

Nothing strengthens the Referee's position in the NFL more than the absolutely brutal way the games have been called by the replacement Refs so far...

Rylant

And there is this little gem too....

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-sh...2673--nfl.html

Not as bad as that eff up last night, but another example of just how out of control the situation is.

I've said it before and I will continue to say it until this whole issue with the NFL and its officials is fixed:

As long as the NFL continues to send out replacement refs, and outcomes like this continue to happen, it only proves more and more to me that the NFL is more interested in money then the product on the field. Brutal.

After last night I don't disagree with you. What is stopping these refs from making big time bets on these games?

The truly sad thing in all of this: the NFLs referee strike gets MUCH more press coverage in America than the NHL lockout.

Just was watching an interview with Trent Dilfer, made an excellent point.

Goddell has always said he will do whatever it takes to "guard the shield" and "Protect the integrity" of this game, but then he knowingly lets these guys out?

I don't blame these new refs one bit. They're simply in over their head.
