last nites game hinged on 3 penalty calls, all went against buffalo, all were incorrect.
buffalo was winning until the safety on a phantom intentional grounding
in what has become typical of the nfl, the game was decided by the refs.

I need to make friends with one or two refs to find out who they are favoring for upcoming games.

That's why the NFL should thank God for the Redzone channel on Sundays. Going from game to game keeps the pace moving even while the refs are slowing it down. I pretty much watch for fantasy these days - another thing the NFL should be thankful for. Rarely watch more than a few minutes of a Thursday or Monday night game. In the past I would watch every minute.

Yeah as bad as the officiating is I feel like it doesn't phase me as much as others. Thanks to modern technology my attention span is 0 anyway so I just got RZ/other games going when a game slows down.

TNF depends on the matchup, don't watch that a ton. MNF usually watch most of it because that is the end of the sweats for the week.

Red zone masks virtually all (and there's a lot of them) of the in game flaws of nfl football. Last year I was stuck without red zone, and wouldn't even bother on Sundays as watching only one game that isn't your team is BRUTAL.

You are almost 20 games under .500 in NFL and CFB. You said you would keep track of your CFB picks and abandoned the thread when you fell to 43%

You posted another string of laughable NBA losers last night (1-3) taking you to 46%. You are one of the worst gamblers I have ever seen.

You can't actually be betting those games because you have no bankroll left.

You talking about anyone's record is surreal.

Quoting for fucking truth.

+1000

Probably why I don't care about the officiating as much as others. I haven't really enjoyed watching isolated NFL games for awhile, they have way too many stoppages for commercials, challenges, penalties, etc. Just usually watch RZ or go through bunch of games at once. It just provides such a nice flow over 1 game.

The only NFL games I'll watch beginning to end is like Pats/Colts, Pats/Broncos, 9ers/Hawks or something of that nature

You should not be encouraging this type of behavior. I understand that you don't like ak but backing up someone who just trolls people and bashes their picks is terrible.

Did akp say word to you when you played cavs -500 on moneyline over the knicks a few weeks back? No, he didn't.

Not saying Miami didn't deserve to win, pretty much dominated after the first few drives where Buff got FGs but I think he is referring to the PI call on Gilmore (think that was his name) down the middle which broke the game open? Really bad call as he timed the play perfectly.
ok so you know I am a dolphins fan but I think you know that I try and be objective. That PI call was close but watching it, you could definitely see the defended make contact with the receiver a split second before the ball got there. Watching the game with a Cowboys fan, he agreed also.

It was close but certainly not a phantom call.

here is the play again (could go either way if you ask me) ... http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on...ting-stephon-gilmore-calls-pi-a-bullshit-call

no, it could not go either way, that was a phantom call made possible because of a bad angle

he hit the receiver early. It is close but still early. We will agree to disagree. Just like when there is an instant replay, many times even the announcers or the guy the so-called expert they have, disagree what the call will be.

Miami was clearly better anyways and they were gonna win regardless of that call.

Bring on week 11

I concur with people are saying about red zone. Never gave it much thought, but you do miss all those referee circle jerks

lol jeez

Lemme tell ya a couple a 3 things from last nights game.

1. That was PI
2. Dolphins D dominated 2nd half regardless
3. I'm not positive on this but if it was a Dolphins game I'm guessing some white trash F'd up some other white trash outside the stadium before/after the game.

he did not hit the receiver early, he reached around him with perfect timing. The receiver wasn't impacted at all until after the deflection

the ref that called the penalty was behind the play, he didn't see anything

So when I bitch about the first offensive PI called in an the endzone on a hail mary in an NFL game since 1975 im a cry baby. But when someone else cries about a PI in 3rd quarter of a game against a team that was probably going to lose anyway its ok.

Graham knew Gronk had a 3 TD game this year and the only way he could possibly replicate such a performance was to blatantly cheat
