The replacement refs are not blind, retarded or deaf. You guys should try refing a game, it is difficult. There are always controversial calls in NFL games.
That said, try as they may, the replacement refs are in over their heads with NFL games and are not competent for the task. The NFL, being vthe competitive cauldron that it is, will see teams and players taking advantage of this incompetence.
The Packer-Seahawk play illustrates that on two counts: the bad call and the blatant push off by the receiver. I predict you will see more push offs, holding, and battles for the ball in pileups. it will get ugly.
The owners will not settle immediately given their general attitude. At best, they will wait a week to save face. At worst, they will hold a tough line. Most of the blame for this goes to them.
Better than best! The league upheld the call this morning. I'm sure that was to prevent the Green Bay Muslim football fans from burning down our embassys.
Right because you fully expected the NFL to reverse the decision and not back up the replacement refs.
