Easy to fix this. Make NFL rules more black/white, remove judgement everywhere possible and PLAY BALL!

After the Browns lost last week to the Seahawks, Cleveland coach Freddie Kitchens opted not to discuss officiating. "I got a memo the other day,' Kitchen said. I am not commenting on it. You guys saw the game.' He's not the only one who got the memo. On October 11 (two days before the Seahawks-Browns [more]

That’s bull.
They should be able to voice their opinions/thoughts about the officials.
If the zebras don’t do their jobs, shouldn’t they be held accountable?
JMO of course.
If they want to stop the criticism, have refs that know what they are doing.
I know they have a difficult job, but the NFL needs to make their job easier by fixing the rules.

Like in the good old days.

Me feeling is the replays are good but the way they handle them are bad. I believe the replay official should be able to look at the replay views once in real time and once in slow motion, if it's indisputable they should be able to see it. To me if you have to watch and re-watch it's automatically disputable.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

NFL Inc is too insecure. They have to be able to live with the fact that officials are going to make poor calls and teams are going to say what they think about said calls. Fining players or organizations for giving their opinion is stupid. It doesn't remove the problem it only masks it. It's kind of naive on their part. It reminds me of my grandson. He crawls into a box and pulls the one flap in front of him. He is hiding and no one can see him. It doesn't matter that 3/4 of his body isn't even in the box, if you can't see his face you can't see him.

Except for the Green Bay Packers I won’t even watch the bullshit product that the NFL puts on tv.
I didn’t even watch yesterday’s Packers game, it was too nice a day to sit in my chair and watch an NFL game and get pissed off.
My wife and I took a pleasant walk in the woods.
I’m certainly very happy that the Packers won but I found out that I didn’t even miss it.

Wonder if Booger Got the same memo?

He was following "The ESPN" playbook of trying to create a story instead of adding color commentary to the game, which is his real job!

It's not the refs, it's the absolute dumpster fire The NFL has created and can't figure out how to put it out.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

The college system of review is much better. guys with the technology quickly make the call, and can initiate the review. There seems to be a higher threshhold to overturn, which I think is good.

Perhaps, no PI reviews (even from the booth) until the last 5 min per half would be good.

Unfortunately, the egos in the NFL will not allow them to adopt the college system, or a derivative thereof....unless of course it was endorsed by Jay Z
