My question is why are they working with C grade refs?
I will say the game yesterday between Detroit and Tennessee was one of the better games I've ever watched at the NFL level. Really an awesome game. Yea, the ref's still screwed the pooch on a couple calls there as well, but wow it was nice seeing these guys competing at a very raw level similar to college.
I'm assuming you know I'm a Lions fan.. That game was CRAZY! One of the better games I've seen in years. Even though they lost.
Again, all refs make bad calls, and no calls. These "replacement" refs are just the same. They've ref'd what, 6 games so far? Give 'em a brake. Plus, what's their incentive to do better? Their jobs are gone again as soon as the Union cronies give the overpaid normal refs even more money..

TN just about screwed the pooch; what a wild game.
Did anyone see Belicheck grab the ref after the call at the end of the game Pats/Ravens last night? He's gonna be writing a check for sure....
