The NFL NEEDS Full Time Refs

[HoustonRaven]

I think y'all know why.

This is embarrassing.

It's a joke! The ref was looking right at 64! It shows how a ref can definitely influence a game whether on purpose or not.

I've never really been on the full time ref train, but after some of the stuff we've seen this year all over the league I'm on it now. Unbelievable.

I've been around long enough here to have seen this conversation multiple times, but I completely agree with HR, it's pathetic not only when there are cameras covering virtually everything on the field, but at what point should there be an allowance for a team to challenge this kind of nonsense?

[RavenMadness]

On board too... Didn't have trouble with calling holding though did he?

How would this cat sitting in an office in April make him see a guy I saw with no training from 2500 miles away?

Because it wouldn't 'just' be sitting in an office.

It would be like the MLB. Seminars, practical situations, officiating in other leagues, etc.

You know, like the other leagues do.

I'm thinking simulations of in game scenarios, odd plays, etc. that rarely challenge the rule book as well as actually learning the book.

[Stone]

A damn good time to start this thread.

[HoustonRaven]

I mean, this is comical at this point.

[RavenMadness]

Wow.... Just wow!

It's so bad tonight. We usually are on the wrong side of calls, but god damn.... from the bullshit Urschel call to the bogus Webb PI, this is getting 2007 Patriot level ridiculous.
