There are 22 players on the field and 7 referees, some people make contact with the other team multiple times. Ever sat in a room and tried to watch a dozen 5year olds… Even if the referees were all Steve Buscemi they could watch everything all the time lol.

Do you visit many boards for other teams? You should try it, especially after that team loses. The consensus across the league is that the Referees are screwing everyone.

To me that’s a level playing field.

Did you watch the video of Simms and Florio? There are refs designed to look for EXACTLY those holds. If it makes you feel better to let the refs off and blame Allen that’s obviously your prerogative. It’s not accurate, but it’s your prerogative.

With all due respect, it might save a lot of dedicated Fans a lot of time and energy, if you would just look at the Title of this thread. Whether or not a petition would even be effective, it's the thought that counts. The consensus appears to be that (among other things), we have a COACHING PROBLEM. After 13 weeks, if that's not clear to you, enjoy the bye-week, and let's see how well-coached we are against the dirty birds. Should be an interesting game, to say the least.

Save time? Didn’t realize you were so busy. My points are about Allen and things impacting the team’s performance. Very on topic.

This is an actual fact. Every week on any fan board after a loss is a thread about how the refs are out to get them and how the game is fixed. I see them all the time.
