Its pretty crappy to be honest, and the days of aggressive defense is fading away.

I think it allows the NFL to script the outcome of the season using the refs. It enables them to put the teams that draw the highest TV ratings in the best position to win. Between the way they schedule some of these Thursday night games and the refs they can put just about any team they want in the playoffs.
