If they cared at all about player safety we wouldn’t have the Thursday games

they would also get rid of helmets, pads, all tacklers would have to at least attempt to wrap-up or attack the ball on every contact, no launching and no hitting a player while their feet are off the ground (a good faith attempt to go at the ball would be allowed if you have reasonable position), all plays and penalties would be reviewable

it would change the game but that would be the pathway to making the game a lot safer and it wouldnt make the game less physical but it would make it a different kind of physical and im not sure any coaches, or committee or the league itself is brave enough to do anything like that
 
Two Words: Walt Coleman.

it's walt anderson this week lol - but same difference

i love how joe buck mentions how experienced this crew is but ngl the experienced crews have frequently been the worst in this league

it feels like this crew is made up of all the leftovers from all the crews that made up the rams-chiefs crew

How about flag football
 
So if the NFL fired an official for a missed call in an ordinary 1PM game on a Sunday, screwing up this much in a big prime time game with major playoff implications should mean Walt Anderson and this whole crew to be fired and banned from officiating any more games.
 
Terrible DPI call, 2 minute warning you have to let the players play. Almost as if this game is rigged for the Cowboys.
 
haha these refs are absolute garbage

there will be no repercussions though because they aided jerrah and what jerrah wants is apparently good for business to the nfl
 
man it really feels like im going after the NFL this week
it feels bad for them to consistently let themselves down only a couple of weeks after i fell in love with the game all over again

but with the redskins, the player safety stuff etc. i hate this league sometimes
 
i cant believe the cowboys basically get this win off a penalty - penalty gets them the kneel downs - what an absolute disaster from an officiating standpoint
 
If anyone wants to finally get Goodell out, find something that says Goodell, the NFL, Jerry and Walt Coleman all worked together to fix this game.
