    Officiating

    It's at an all time bad this postseason. Cant say it's affected the outcome of any games, but its really had an effect on the lines.

    It's a bad idea. Maybe replace 1 or 2 of the newer or lower rated officials, but this isn't working. Detroit easily could have covered last night. That's unthinkable when the line was around 8 and the game ended at 20.

    Refs not calling penalties they should. Hence the unders

    Lions game last night?

    Why are Lions games so badly officiated?

    Don't think Lions deserved the W but come on that WR grabs lions DB's facemask in the endzone and gets a penalty called? Then that deep ball deemed uncatchable? Hell no. Those unsportmanlike penalties?

    Just everytime Lions were about to generate momentum, refs are there to make sure it doesn't happen.

    I think obviously coaches like Pete Caroll and Bellichick get benefit of the calls because sometimes refs are scared to call fouls against these guys especially at home

    Cost every +3 1st half bettor today. Of course giving up a hail mary doesn't help, but officials cost the gmen some points.

    No clue why they separate crews that work the whole year together. Truly makes no sense.

    Not calling some of those penalties allowed Rogers to set up camp in the Pocket.

    I have no idea why but Seattle gets all the calls. Totally disagree about Belichek getting calls. If anything he's held to a higher standard. The Seahawks get all the breaks.
