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

Zero2Cool (30-Jan) : QB coach Sean Mannion

Zero2Cool (30-Jan) : DL Coach DeMarcus Covington

dfosterf (30-Jan) : from ft Belvoir, Quantico and points south. Somber reminder of this tragedy at Reagan Nat Airport

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Packers coach Matt LaFleur hires Luke Getsy as senior assistant, extends Rich Bisaccia's deal

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Chiefs again huh? I guess another Super Bowl I'll be finding something else to do.

Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : Chiefs Eagles...again...sigh

dfosterf (27-Jan) : Happy Birthday Dave!

Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : happy birthday dhazer

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over

beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs

Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
