The refs gave us a gift earlier on our touchdown drive (there was no pass interference there). What incompetence giveth, incompetence taketh away!

Well, fair enough. I didn't catch most of the game; I only got home in time for the last part of the 4th quarter. This play will stick though, because it was a bad call to end the game. So even if you don't whine as a Packers fan, you can still whine as a football fan!

Hawks fan here, and that looked like an interception. However, this is just one of MANY examples of how incompetent the game is now. The referees have to come back, please. The game was horrifying to watch, and I am concerned for week 4.



Estelle and Adol... best characters ever! XD

The refs are ruining the NFL and our prediction league. Every game has become completely unpredictable because of the random factor the refs bring to the game.

Here's a miscellaneous prediction. NFL officials will return next week.

I think this ref dispute will be over by week 5. Lol.

In that we all stand united!



I think this is the first time in a ridiculously long time that the Pats, Steelers, Packers and Saints all have losing records

How terrible to wake up to a loss of Green Bay. Even worse, all because of a bad call by the refs.

Before the season started, didn't I say that the game needs competent refs, otherwise the league becomes a joke? So the NFL better pays up for those refs who wanted more money. They aren't perfect, but they are much better than what the league currently has.

There were quite a few games in the last three weeks that had too many bad calls, some of which ended up deciding the game.


Add "#boycottNFL" to your thread title. I'm not watching all next week and neither should anyone who like the game. Don't worry, I'll still play your prediction league.



These refs are not at fault either. They were just doing their best, and the game is hard to predict. The blame should go straight to the NFL, who preaches on defending the shield. (The NFL logo)
