Officiating Saints vs Jags

TheOak · 08-18-2012, 05:54 AM

At first this season I didn't think the scrub refs would be such a big deal..

They absolutely kill the pace of a game...

Those two pass interference calls were BS. This is not college, arm bar is allowed.

That WAS an interception.

Did you actually have to go under the hood for ball placement from a previous play? That is what the chains are for jackwagon!

Why did you call a pass incomplete but spot the ball as if it were a reception, then throw a delay of game flag because we couldn't figure out WTF you were doing?

Those Zebras cost us the game.... I have never in my life blamed officiating for a loss, and I know this is preseason... But they really did screw us.

Really in the game their was 4 BS Pass Interference calls, 2 on the Jags last drive, and 2 earlier in the game I think Gabbert may of still been in the game.

They ruled Hendersons incomplete pass a catch.

They ruled was it Whites? Interception which was clean an incomplete.

They missed several holding call.

They had to use instant replay to figure out where the ball was last spotted.

Jags scored 27 pts in that game, Refs gave them about 14 of that.

So lets say....... Saints 24 Jaguars 13

Really for the sake of it, lets not even count the Saints last TD because it wasnt necessary and call it Saints 17 Jaguars 13

Henderson's catch was complete. The ball is allowed to touch the ground.

Ruling on the field was complete and I saw that replay two dozen times, it is not conclusive enough to overturn the ruling on the field.

I still can't get over the 2 back to back phantom PI calls, you can't cover any better...

Same ref called both of them also.

Worst I have seen in a long time.

But its pre-season and they're still developing as well.

It wouldn't have bothered me nearly as much if the calls had gone both ways. We were hosed all night long.

I miss the old referees. These ones are trash.

The refs last night were garbage. Everyone will miss holding calls but the PI calls? The one on the last drive was clearly overthrown and not catchable. I know they are replacement officials but last night was absolutely pathetic.

Not only was it an uncatchable ball, but that wasn't pass interference on any level of football from Pee-Wee to the NFL.

They looked like a bunch of drunks the NFL rounded up off Bourbon St.
