Refs strike again - Mickeypoo - 10-25-2015

I realize that you have to overcome bad officiating, but I do not remember a year where I have seen so many game changing, awful calls.  The latest example: Bills stop the Jags with around 3 minutes left.  Oh wait, phantom PI call on Buffalo.  When I say phantom, I mean the Buffalo defender didn't even touch the receiver and was diving for the ball.  Next play:  touchdown Jags instead of 4th down.  Even the announcers were like WTF was that!!  I feel like I just wasted 3 hours.  I might as well have watched WWE.  At least I know that is fixed.  It really takes away from the game.

Bad call, sure.

By the way, confusing title. I thought we'd have to deal with replacement refs again.

Oh, sorry on the title. Was not trying to be tricky. Lol

NFL is trying pretty hard to make the Jags a viable franchise in London in the future by building a fanbase there. Letting them lose after being up 27-3 wouldn't help their efforts there. That's why I am not surprised in the slightest by some ref shenanigans.

I really hope London gets the chance to veto that shitty franchise.
