I saw quite a few forearms thrown by the Seahawks Sunday. They would go for a tackle, then throw a forearm. I can't remember who all was doing it, but i saw it done more then once, and it never was called by the refs.

Yea I did notice that. I actually saw one guy after a Packers kick return repeatedly punching someone in the back. Was right in front of a Zebra too. In my opinion the Refs are really, really bad this year.

With fines on some sort of performance rating scale... it has gotten to the point where you expect about 3 to 5 bad calls a game.. and just hope they don't spring up at critical junctions of the game. Or that they are distributed between the two teams.. not like the Vikes vs Lions this past week.. talk about horse pucky calls going against a single team.

What kills me is when they miss a call even after reviewing it. The Lions fumble was a bad call exacerbated by the ref blowing the replay. At least in the Chargers-Broncos game Hochuli admitted it was a blown call but was not allowed by rule to overturn it. I can swallow that as he's human, but the league needs to allow for such so that the correct call can be made when the ref knows he blew it. If the point of replay is to get the call right, why isn't it being used for that purpose? I also think they need more officials on the field. You're asking middle aged men to keep up with world class athletes out there, and that's just unreasonable. We have the technology to aid the officials. Let's use it more efficiently.

No, full-time employees. NFL officials currently are part-time employees which makes as much sense as expecting a McDonald's fry cook to make you a gourmet meal.

Cheesey,

I saw that.. BTW, I thought his form was pretty bad. His stances were off, his breathing was pretty bad and I heard no yell as he delivered the forearm. And the punch was a little better but not much.

Those guys wouldn't last 20 seconds in the ring... :icon_smile:
