The Refs Helped The Chefs Win Again

[mudwhistle]

Interesting idea, but how would this Independent company be funded and how could they train their officials without hundreds of games worth of real-time experience with Pros playing at full speed?

Watching game film, just like teams do when they prepare for the next game.

It's not hard to be an NFL official if you know the rules and have been watching football for long enough.

NFL officials are all part-timers. This alone makes it easy to bribe them.

Well, ideally there would be more than company that provides refs, so we would have competition for the best officiating.


And you wouldn't need to train a whole bunch of new refs. If refs that are employed by the college and professional leagues were all fired b/c their services were no longer needed, where do you suppose they would get jobs?

. . . and once they had jobs at professional referee companies, only those who perform the best would get advancement and gigs.

Interesting idea, but how would this Independent company be funded

As I already indicated, college and professional leagues would hire them out by the revenue generated by ticket sales and merchandising.

.. . . and once refs are a respected field? These companies might even be able to get into the endorsements and taking ads game.

If i knew of every scheme to generate revenue for such a company? I suppose I would be in the business of starting companies.

But of this, you can be sure. If it were against the law, or socially and publicly a bad thing that refs on the payroll of the same folks that run the games? Eventually, where there is a need? It gets filled.

That's how the free market works.



. . . likewise, we could take away the cartel status, but clearly cities that generate more revenue would continually dominate.

If the funding source is still from the league, that isn't any different than what we have now.

Not necessarily.

Refs can feel free to make calls that go against what and how the league would pressure them to do so, keep their impartiality, as they can't be fired by the league.


It is no different than how external auditors work with companies. Just b/c a corporation is paying external auditors or counsel, does not mean that those folks are required to cover for corrupt corruption, waste and crime.


It will be left to the fans and the press to judge how well the refs are doing. And then? Their popularity will transfer into how often the league hires them.

We have laws that would prevent collusion between a referee company and any of the leagues.

They could call holding on every play in every down of every game if they wanted to.

Same for unnec. hits after a play is over! I saw someone run down a player who scored a TD! Both feet in the End Zone, but he still dragged the guy to the ground! Late hits out of bounds is rampant! Of course when Mahomes gets the call, it's the refs helping out the Chiefs!

[Couchpotato]

The Chefs won another close game they should have lost.

And guess why?

The refs refused to call their right tackle for false-starts and refused to call holding on them.

Chef right tackle Jawann Taylor moved early on almost every snap and it was never called. Even Chris Collinsworth pointed it out.

And on almost every important play it was easy to spot that the Chefs were holding and it was never called, but every time the Chargers looked like they were going to start rolling the refs called holding.

Every right tackle in the league does this. Watch a game where TJ Watt, Hutchenson, Garrett, Bosa, Crosby or any of the other top end edge rushers are playing the tackle is almost always moving a milisec before snap. Please just stop.

 

[Couchpotato]

Did you look at every play and pick out all the missed holding, hands to the face, etc etc calls or just the ones that fit this moronic narrative?

Bull Shit. It's cheating

Nope, I'm not some sort of anal-retentive prick like yourself.

It's like Jordon Rules.

The NFL is helping the Chefs win games because they think it draws in more viewers.

Fact is it doesn't.

It instead pisses off fans of other teams and causes them to turn the channel to something else.

Is it false starting? Yes. Do they only not call it against the Chiefs? Nope. The tackle in question was doing the same thing in Jacksonville and they didnt call it then either. Was there also a vast conspiracy to rig games for Jacksonville? If there was they really fucked that up.

This is the claim of all loser fanbases.

Which loser franchise do you root for?

So much winning!

It's "Chiefs." Not "Chefs." Kansas City CHIEFS. "Chefs" are cooks.

Anyway, I agree that sometimes it really does seem that the refs are trying to help a certain team win.
