AlexVanDyke Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 There are just way too many judgement calls that decide games. I’m thinking it ge late hot in the bengals in the afc championship. The eagles Bs hold in the SB. It happens every week in the season. Forget all the roughing the passersI just don’t remember the reds being this much part of the game. It really hurts the sport in my opinion. Was it always this bad? I don’t remember this growing up 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoot-Face Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 For a while now, yes, at least to my eye. It's partly why I've given up watching non-Jets games the last couple seasons, but it's been pretty much on brand for the last ten years or so, at least. And don't let people fool you. Tonight had nothing to do with Taylor Swift, that narrative is just weird. This is all stuff we should be used to by now, as Jets fans. Find an alternate world where Taylor Swift isn't dating Kelce, and those bad calls still probably happen. It's just the way the NFL is. Only thing that maybe changes it is if Aaron Rodgers were playing and we have a favored QB for once. Maybe. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Reffing in the NFL has morphed into NHL reffing which is 100% game management. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ecuadorian Jet Posted October 2 Popular Post Share Posted October 2 I've said it before and I will say it again. This league is controlled by gambling, which is controlled by criminal organizations. The Jets are the least attractive team for Gamblers, because they don't have fantasy marquee names. Therefore, the aforementioned organizations know to use their pawns aka referees to make sure the results are exactly what they want 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggs Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 The refs were less of an issue when their job didn’t include protecting players. Lots of judgement was added. Hate that incidental holding on a defensive player is an automatic 1st down. How about a spot 10 yard penalty like offensive holding. No automatic 1st down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember the calls being this slanted or blatant in the 80s and 90s. They didn't have credibility issues back then. He's turned the league into boxing. It's corrupt. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtina Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Now that gambling is officially sanctioned by the nfl, there is an obvious correlation between that and the rise of horrible game affecting officiating. It has really spoiled football for me, I’m watching a lot less and wouldn’t let myself get emotionally invested last night. The amazing part is that they’re able to keep the officials silent. It’s rare to hear a callout like Sauce’s and finally Saleh reacting at the end 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthCoastJetsFan Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Rightly or wrongly, teams with less talent get called for more penalties. It is a fact of life in the NFL Up until the late 90s though, the QB protection racket wasn't really in effect. It all started with Brady getting hit low and all of a sudden there was a rule passed (even though the Steelers put Carson Palmer out of a playoff game with a low cheap shot... guess Palmer wasn't good enough). Now, if you have a star QB, your OL can do pretty much anything. Yes, these were horrible calls. But, as usual, the vaunted Jets defense just can't come up with a stop when they need one. Just like the end of the Buffalo game, and so many others over the years, they gave up too many ridiculous plays in that last drive. You simply cannot allow a QB to run for a first down when it's 3rd and 25. Where is the pressure in that situation? You've got to make him get rid of the ball early, but they never do. Yes the officiating is horrible. It is affecting the watchability of the games, definitely. But it's not the reason the Jets lost. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Of Bavaria Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 It you declare Angel Hernandez a statistical outlier, NFL Refs have always been the worst officials out of the four main professional sports leagues. NHL refs continue to be the standard other official should wish to attain. NBA refs are not too bad as well. MLB umpires outside the couple asswipes that make the game about them aren't terrible. NFL Refs have been and will always be the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t remember this growing up I think the proof it was this bad is the existence of replay. Pretty sure it came to the NFL first before it came to the other major sports. Amazingly, the refereeing still stinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(e.g. If a team was trailing, they would get PP's to try to make the game more exciting). I think that has changed in recent years and now they make more legit calls.

The "Make Up" Call in the NHL was totally real. So was putting their whistle away in a close game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetPotato Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 It's been this way for a while. Mahomes is clearly the heir apparent to the Brady treatment. The integrity of the game takes a back seat to the latest trends that bring in casual fan dollars. If you really care about the sport of football, the NFL will disappoint you every time. This is a league for them, not us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the game is officiated differently with rodgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
