TERRIBLE officiating. Detroit got screwed.

Jamaal Williams did make a real smart play going down at the 1 though.


Really makes you wonder

Why GB has had so much success. NFL likes to promote the brand. Rodgers is a big piece of that.

Although he wasn't your MVP tonight. It was the big boy who faked the neck snapping backwards to sell 2 egregious calls.


That’s probably it

The league has so much tied up in the smallest media market in professional sports that they’ll dictate which team gets the calls. The calls were really bad tonight, and advantageous for GB, but read what you’re writing. Literally decades of subsidizing the most challenging market in the sport, via officiating. Not back to back hall of fame QBs, or the absence of a meddlesome, Daniel Snyder-type owner. But the league needs a media market of 200k so badly to survive that it will subvert it’s own integrity.


The game is too fast for 50 - 60 year old officials.

They can't keep up with world class athletes, hence too many bad/non calls.


Not so sure it's that alone

The hands to the face calls were made by an official that was standing still, eagerly waiting for Bubba's head to snap backwards so he could throw his flag.

Pass interference is difficult to call no matter what age you are.


What a game it was!

All the more reason not to watch the joke of the NFL.

And I can’t stand The Lions
