Every Jeff Triplette reffed game is a clusterfuck. He should change his name to Ziggy Hood, he spends so much time under the hood correcting his dreadful calls.

no one gave up on the play and he was full speed into the end zone. they shouldn't be blowing the whistle in that situation is my beef. its already over with for me

So you think a ref shouldn't stop a play he thinks dead, until video replay proves he's right?

Its a bad beat for sure, but officiating in reveres would make the NFL even more unwatchable.

do u watch the NFL often? no sarcasm intended. the NFL stated more than once they don't want the refs blowing the whistles when plays like that happen so there is a true outcome to the play. its not like 3 refs said the play was dead it was one ref who blew his whistle close to 5 seconds after the fumble

Yes and No....

You don't want your whole lineup to be contrarian. Obviously you still want the +EV plays as well. It is a balance.

Gotta figure out which of the 25-50% owned guys you like and don't like.

Yea I agree.
If Calvin does 159/3 you certainly want to have him even if 90% of the field owns him.

But I'm sure the money is won and lost with the cheap guys combined with hitting on the top level guys.

You can't gamble on the moon.

Well I guess you can, but you would have to be a fucking huge degen.

I'll be honest, I'm not a big NFL fan, so I can't say what the NFL wants the officials to do. I do watch it though and it seems to me that NFL makes up their rules on the fly. Sometimes a catch is catch and sometimes it's not.

Yeah then they got the Mon-Thurs slate...interesting cause Ben is out and Vick is cheap but obviously that hurts Bell/Brown a lot.

I would think with the game in London at 9:30 in the morning next week they will have like a Thurs/London slate. Game is live on Yahoo. I don't even think it is on a TV network.

Next week Sun night/Mon slate going to be hilarious with Saints/Cowboys.

im a huge fan of NBA late night contests that only have 2 or 3 games. these NFL primetime contests are pretty fun tho as i said before there aren't many line ups that can win and when u have 2 low % guys that go off you basically win at the very least your money back

That seems like a bad call on Stafford. Ball was going forward. Atleast that is how they usually call that one.
