I am about done with the NFL

Protected from criticism? On any given week some player(s) or coach(es) are going off about the officiating. It is inconsistent. Certainly they are not protected. The fines deter, but they do not eliminate.

Side me with those who think the refs do an amazing job - MOST of the time. There are those head-scratching moments to be sure, and they're frustrating, but the body of work the officials present from one season to the next is pretty damn solid in my opinion.

Blame the league for implementing silly rules to promote offense and to protect QBs. Don't blame the refs for doing all that is humanly possible to enforce them.
