Denver Broncos vs Alanta Falcons MNF In-Game Thread

[pulledclear]

These Refs are an EASY target. The regular officials were HORRIFIC last year!

[Fed_42420]

just turned the game on, broncos 4 turnovers in first quarter and only down 10. looks to me like they can win if they hold onto the ball

[R.P. McMurphy]

Donkos offense is a fukkin disaster right now. They are moving it fine.. but enough with the fukkin turnovers already

[FB1907]

refs icing the game...All of the are on the under bet

[pulledclear]

It's definitely the refs fault the players have IQs below 100

Try below 90 and thats NO JOKE>

[Kav]

these refs are a joke wtf is taking so long!

[hels]

And you can't blame the replacement refs, they aren't the ones striking. It's either no refs equals no NFL OR replacement refs equals NFL football. We're all watching so obviously it doesn't matter to us.

What are the regular refs striking for, a base salary of 50k and 5k a game.... and they want 5.8k per game. Under their current plan of reffing 17 weeks a season they would be making 199k by 2019 -- they make 151k in 2012. Fukk them

That's a fact.

[delpiero7]

Broncos have turned the ball over 3 times and Falcons have only really taken advantage once, and that was only when they started at the 1 yard line.

Manning won't continually be this shit, I have a feeling Atl may rue their missed chances, they should be out of sight by now.

Also, how many billions of $$$ does the NFL make, and they've taken officials from a pub league to referee the games. Great thinking.

[onlooker]

What a boring ass game.

[Donkeys2012]

Refs are definatley on the under this is a bunch of bullshit. That ref diving in the pile count see shit.

[txrangers]

the ref who called that falcons ball prematurely is probably from atlanta. disgraceful....that was clearly broncos ball.

[hels]

and the majority of the regular NFL refs have 9-5 Monday-Friday jobs as well. They live like kings.

[pulledclear]

Its easy to blame these Refs when you lack personal accountability.

[hels]

What a boring ass game.

It took an hour to play the first quarter. A fukkin hour to play 15 minutes of football. Unreasonable.

[YoungAD7]

terrible 1st quarter took an hr lol!!!!

[pulledclear]

Its the American way.

True. Reffing any sport isn't easy. I ref soccer, not at any elite level but shit happens quickly... these guys do the best they can.

Given the furore over the officiating in the first couple of weeks of the season , the normal refs will probably add another $1k per game to their demands lol.

[pulledclear]

Who do you think will be dumb enough to pick up Peyton after Denver DUMPS him.

[pulledclear]

Jets!

[Stelio Kontos]

I don't want to to see that damn referee any more throughout this game....

[pulledclear]

Miami!

[pulledclear]

Jax????

Very true, the scrutiny replacement refs have received is because they are 'replacement.' It's like putting grade 1 teachers in a grade 8 classroom -- they're going to make mistakes.

[R.P. McMurphy]

Dropped a probable pick 6 by Denver. This game so far is all about Falcons jumping at opportunities and Denver is blowing theirs... and oh yeah shitty home cooked officiating!

[hels]

Did the ref just throw a flag on the coach

[lunchbawks]

Refs taking over.. football is shit atl better cover

[face]

falcons rolling. game is a snoozer, gonna watch baseball

[onlooker]

Doesn't look like the 2nd quarter is going any faster.

[pulledclear]

Hey Fox shut the fck up! Your team is garbage!!

[YoungAD7]

lmao this is hysterical

[hels]

Will probably take an hour 15.

I guess the Denver booth doesn't know how to count past 10

[delpiero7]

1 hour to play ONE quarter?!

Whoever is paying for advertising time must really be getting value for money.

Dunno why I am watching this. It's almost 3am in England and I start work in 6 hours, but I am staying up to watch this mess of a game.

A Denver comeback would make it worthwhile though.

[hels]

lmao this is hysterical

The first quarter was comedy hour gold!!
