is it me or.............
do you think Albert Haynesworth should have gotten a personal foul for tackling Flacco after the whistle was blown for their offsides? I am so sick of these refs

Yeah I thought it was pretty blatant and should have been flagged. He rammed through the line so fast, when you do that you know there's gonna be a flag and that there's no play. Him tackling Flacco was well over the top and unquestionably should have been flagged.

Yeah, it should have been a penalty.
As I type this, I am watching Matt Jones of the Jags get thrown to the ground after a reception - a full 4 yards out of bounds. No flag.

There shouldn't have been a flag on EITHER play.
The Haynesworth play happened after a whistle, but he could have done far worse to Flacco for sure. It was clear that he eased up after realizing what happened.
Terrell Suggs got a penalty for tickling Scary Collins' shoulder. It was one of the most ridiculous calls I've ever seen. I can understand a referee MISSING a penalty because he didn't see it, but to throw a flag at a CRUCIAL time in the game for something that simply DID NOT COME CLOSE TO ACTUALLY OCCURRING IN REAL LIFE is pathetic. And the league will admit that this week.
And they wonder why they call it the No Fun League - let the players play. The refs need to get out of the way.

What gets me is that there had to be another official that saw this bad call. Where was he, and why didn't he intervene? I mean, that call changed the outcome, very likely.

I was there, and the play was right in front of me. Suggs did nothing! The NFL has the worst officiating of any major sports league in the country, if not the world. And Roger Goddell won't do a damn thing about it. He should give the same scrutiny to these part time jerks as he does the players. But we all know that a'int gonna happen.

I stated before that after every game when the NFL reviews the officials they should take away game checks for calls that affect the outcome of a game. Yes for Suggs to get called for trying to bat a ball when his helmet was not touched is just wrong. We stopped them and the officials handed a free 1st down and 15 yards they were not getting from the Ravens! Sad sad sad.... Now was this why we lost the game? Again I would say no. It sure was not a help, however we needed to take that level of play up and stop them from getting points.
