Do they ever list all the errors from their union run games?

Did anyone notice the game seemed to flow more smoothly without all the fags?

And we missed some calls too like the safety in the endzone... but the game flow was good.

I thought especially in the last half they held up the game quite a bit with all their trying to get things figured out.

If you watch the highlights, when will smith is being held in the endzone, the back judge is staring at it happening right there, looks to the other official and then just ignores it

Surely they've been trained to recognize holding, or was that goodells way of saying

I was watching this and definitely noticed it. It seemed to be something they did a lot. They would all kind of look at each other and expect the other guy to do something. It also took them forever to set things up, like extra points. There was one play I remember where the Saints had already lined up to snap the ball, were calling signals, and the refs ran in and stopped it to measure... took them forever to decide to do it (should have been obvious in seconds) and then they took a reeeeeal long time to get the measurement done, while the Saints players just stood around impatiently, like come on, let's go.

I don't think it was official bias against the Saints as much as, Roger Goodell is plain old incompetent....

A couple things on the scab refs............they missed some obvious calls, especially holding right in their faces. I didn't see them missing one call and then pulling a BS penalty to make up for it which the NFL refs are notorious for. The game did flow smoothly in the first half and then something happened in the second half where they began making calls and looked confused while doing it. I think after the preseason they will be fine.

First game they called, they didn't want to throw too many flags but they did miss a few obvious ones. Glad they go the replay right with the non INT but actually should have been called on the field that way cause one official was looking dead at it. Overall it was about the same if you ask me.
