I think it's funny that Olsen is making the exact same face in the background.

The replacement refs are overcompensating with some of this stuff. "Oh, I saw it, I saw it...let me call a penalty".

I hope it gets straightened out. The funny thing is that whoever didn't understand in the past comments like, 'there's holding on every play'...should know that has always been true. There is 'some degree' of judgement these refs should make before calling everything. For example, the unecessary roughness call last night? It wasn't horrible, but the players forward progress had still not stopped..it was an unecessary call...like so many this pre-season already.

I hope you're not refering to the call against #42 Wilson late in the game.

Actually I am 2jake. It was just 1 example (review my post, b/c I did say I could understand it, but that it demonstrated). The WR made a move, was corraled by 2 defensive players & he snuck aorund. He hit the ground & not even a 1/2 second later was hit by Keon Wilson. You will see a hit within less than 1 second throughout the season & 7/10 times it will not be called. I played running back & was often hit after landing on the ground. Why did it get called? Because he led with his head & refs are confused as to what thye need to call in relation to that. He was not a defensless player.

My point, don't get caught up on that example: Throughout the night refs called plays correctly, but very literally. If they do this throughout the season you will hear others talking about what I am & follow. You can't call every holding incident, you can't call every touch of a WR at 5 yards & 1 inch or incidental contact as holding or PI. Games will drag on & be grueling.

I disagree.... I thought it was a penalty. I know they called a lot of penalties but, from what I could see

(and remember) most if not all were the correct call.
