Man, F these refs & broadcasting crew

[James in PA]

I'm delighted for the win, but you have to be more partial than that when you're calling a broadcast on a national network and especially if you are an officiating crew. These clowns all so badly wanted to be part of a Cinderella story. That is really infuriating and disgusting. F them all.

I didn't get the sense the broadcast was 'in' for the Colts. I think the Rivers story is just an incredible one. The only call I thought was a little shameful was them covering for the refs on the BS PI call on their go-ahead FG drive, but they do that from time to time for the sake of protecting officiating from getting egg on their face. It wasn't PI and the breakup was clean.

Seahawks against the world today

Should have seen that coming

 

[James in PA]

I just felt they made it all about Rivers and the Colts D. I get it. Their shorthanded D played a great game, but with a little help from their zebra friends. Guess what, our D played a great game too, as usual.

broadcast crew seemed ok. Hawks were Sleepy and of course Rivers was going to be the story.

Refs were bad, but not the worst I've seen

 

[BigMeach]

The refs were quite frustrating. Them letting the Colts DB's shove and be really handsy in all important situations, but the second we do it it's a flag? But the team that should have won did win, which is all that matters to me.

The broadcast crew was fine minus McCourty. That guys an idiot.

I don't think the officials cared about the egg they had the whole damn chicken sitting on thier face and they still did thier best to f-us.

I dont mind bad or so so officiating where its piss poor both ways, but this game today? made SB XL look like amateur hour.

Officiating SUCKED A$$ today... The Seahawks still managed to beat the Blue Horseshoes AND the Zebra's.

 

[Seahawkfan80]

They put peppermint on a turd....and it was still a turd.

@JPatera76

Oh he mad, yo.

 

[SeahawkSteve80]

One of the most infuriating games I’ve seen in a long time. That whole CBS broadcast was a total joke. Full of Colts fans.

 

[glenwo2]

Okay...FIXED the 2nd picture somehow.

You tell me that ref wasn't pissed at Meyers for f***ing up the "storyline".

 

[Glasgow Seahawk]

Not convinced the 'replay assistant' calls the receiver out if mcdonald hadn't thrown that challenge flag in the first half. Colts were literally snapping it until MM threw the challenge

100% correct

Meanwhile against the lions the NFL:




Edit: Also the NFL Said he didn’t have possession until he was in the endzone. Here’s another angle poor lighting (got it from the comments of that post)


He never had the ball at all it was on the ground and… he was still never in the endzone



Hopefully this isn’t a sign of what’s to come thursday

Shit like this is enough to make me stop watching. Honestly.
