No Redskin Fans, You did not lose because of the Officiating...Get over it

[GonzoLays]

Is there a fanbase in America that WHINES and b****ES more about the Refs than the Washington Redskins. These dimwits think there is a league wide conspiracy against the team. There are atleast 20 threads on extrememorons.com about the officiating. They ALWAYS complain about the officiating. They blame this loss on officiating. They blamed all nine losses last year on officiating.

They are crazy. They think EVERYONE IS OUT TO GET THEM, from Tom Jackson to Len Pasquerrili.

Get over it Redskin fans, you cannot blame every loss on the officials. And NO, not every beat writer or telecaster is against the skins. Yikes!

[Rock Chalk]

Do you even come here after a loss?

[frerottenextelway]

I hate Skins fans. Their 1st TD came on a drive where Moss caught a 3rd down pass out of bounds, and their last TD came after a bogus penalty when we sacked Brunell on 4th down. And many of them have the nerve to say the tuck rule cost them the game, atleast over at KFFL. Give me a break, take off the diapers, drop the tissues, and stfu.

[Dudeskey]

Yet they neglect the fact their offensive line got away with murder holding just about any defender that got penetration today...™ :kiddingme

[Finger Roll]

reminds me of when the Raiders lost the game against the Pats. Still laughing over that Hilarious!

Amen. They held like the Raiders a few years ago, when the League spent a whole season trying to make up the tuck call to them.

This place whines and bitches when we lose and get hosed by the refs as bad as any fanbase in the country. We are STILL whining about the no-call blocks in the back on the Dainty Hall return for a TD.

[SoCalBronco]

The refs were awful on both sides. Cooley DID get interfered with and that should have been called. But by contrast, Engelberger and especially Pryce were openly held without any flags being thrown. There were very bad calls on both sides.

[Clockwork Orange]

Psst, Moss was out of bounds on that 3rd down "catch" on your first TD drive.

We can trade bad calls/no calls for a while. It was pretty damn even.

[Breck Bronc]

Every teams fans whine about the refs after a close loss. Get over it.

[tapedeck]

cough...

Rhonde Barber just cold clocked the referee as he was trying to hit Kevin Mawae of the New York Jets but missed. The ref was out for a good two to three minutes. But the kicker is, he stayed in the game and he only got a 15 yard penalty!

Remember when Rod Smith inadvertently hit the referee in the Monday Night Contest - I think last year - and got kicked out of the game? Same situation, and Rod's hit was less violent than Rhonde's, and two different outcomes.

I agree...i'm not saying either team got the benefit...these refs...shouldn't be refs. His feet were in but his knee went out of bounds...i really dont know if that is out of bounds or not.

[Liebs]

the whole game was poorly ref'd on both sides.

like people already mentioned, a drive which resulted in a score was allowed after a 3rd down conversion where Moss was clearly out of bounds. i was f'ing baffled by this call and it makes me loose faith in the replay process.

Push off on the TD called back may have been weak.

defensive holding on denver after the sack to end the game was weak.

no PI called for cooley, but the ball may gave been uncatchable

but the single most bone headed thing all game was the F"ING non calls on holding. I remember one play endelberger was tackled, even the announcers mentioned and there was no call. this happened several times.
one of the worst officiated games i have on recent memory.

the replay clearly showed that his knee was down out of bounds BEFORE the ball was caught. The announcers were shocked the play wasn't overturned. His feet being in bounds should have been of no consequence.

And as said the calls were terrible both ways today. :blowhorn:

[Rascal]

That was probably one of the worst officiating games I've ever seen. I don't know how many times I saw one of our d-lineman get hogtied. In rodeo those type of plays would win you belt buckles...in football it's suppose to get a you yellow flag thrown in your general direction.

How that ref could call Moss in bounds is beyond me.

Good hard fought game though.

Although ****ing Sean Taylor needs to be shot. WTF was he doing there at the end when we were in victory formation and he slams his way through. I would have beat the living **** out of somebody for doing that. No reason for that crap.

I was yelling at the Refs in the 4th quarter because they just completely ruined an otherwise awesome game. They were determined to be the stars of the show today. It was horrid, but nothing that openly changed the game. Even if the safety had counted, it was so early in the game that things could have gone a 100 different directions. It's not like it was the last play of the game.

It's poetic justice for winning in Dallas and against Seattle. When you live on the edge like this, your gonna lose once in a while.

Get over it Skins fans. Losing one like this hurts... Denver fans know all too well. I always complain about the no-call against Dante Hall a few years ago, and the truth is that Denver had several chances after that to change their fate and did not.

We can go back and forth and mention calls or noncalls that were bad. This was one of the worse officiated games I've ever seem. You think it might be karma why that official gets knocked out cold? Hhmmm. Not wishing bad on anybody but I did find that a little ironic.

Also the rain got in Clintons eyes so he couldn't have a 300 yard day against you. If it wasn't for the rain Bell wouldn't have gotten even 2 yards rushing. We should have won 86-0. Bell is on speed. I am filing a lawsuit against your team for beating us.

[Raider Bill]

I thought the Moss catch was clearly out of bounds and I thought would be overturned.

I figured the Brunell over the LOS call would be upheld since the replay was from an offset angle and it was tough to say exactly where he was, and it was overturned.

These were two real interesting plays.

The Moss play looked pretty easy to call. Out of bounds.

The Brunell play, that confused me. Since when are you allowed to review a play and then assess a penalty to it? I thought that if a crew misses a call, that's it.

Hey, I'll give you credit for showing up, but where's the rest of them trolls?

[Ballhawk]

Many of the bad calls had evened out or close to it. Their two biggest gripes are the PI against Patten (they scored a TD anyways and gianed more TOP, so that actually worked out better for them) and the Tuck rule, which is in fact a rule. It is not like they made a play, Jake tried to pull back but ball went forward.

Even the blocked FG was followed by their block punt, zero effect as they got 3 points. The two plays nullified each other.

I have tons of respect for the skins right now.

As far as the point of this thread, I thought the officiating was terrible and subsequent calls were made to make up for earlier bad calls.

It didnt favor one side IMO.

You think i'm not happy about our 3-1 start? You can bet my balls on it i'm satisfied. But our division is tough i dont know if we can make the playoffs or not. Because all 4 teams are playing like playoff teams and our whole division has teams with winning records.

[wabbit]

The holding on both sides of this game was so bad I can only guess the refs decided it would have slowed the game too much to call each & every one.

I don't remember a game where there were so many bad calls, and yet so many legitimate calls unpunished.

Yeah, it was beyond bad & I suspect the weekly ref review won't be kind to this crew

One of the refs sure got jacked up with some bad karma on that last drive though. Anyone have a video of that? Anyways, very well played game and props to the Broncos. Now please kill the rest of the nfc east. Thank you.

[KJ25]

As long as I didn't have to listen to Bernie Kukar (sp?) say 1st down I'm not complaining...

Seriously now the were 2 reasons the Broncos won the game and they were the 2 Tatum Bell runs. Portis avareged 5 a pop, Brunell torched the secondary for most of the game and Plummer didn't look good at all but the Skins couldn't prevent the 2 game breaking plays so they didn't deserve to win. The zebras on national geographic deserve more threads then the refs so let it go.

The true conspiracy:

Denver did agree in last years trade that they would concede to the Redskins during the 2005 season, in fact, it was one of the motivating 'terms' in the deal. The gameplan Denver put together was limited at best and in fact we gave them every opportunity to win, including poor officiating in the second half. The problem was that the Skins just didn't get it done. There, is your true conspiracy (YOU SUCK). Oh, and go Chiefs!

I just wanted to login and say it was a good win for the Broncos. I dont think we lost that game due to officiating, I think both teams had more opportunities for big plays and they didnt make them. I wish Brunell had chosen to run that 2 point conversion and I think there may have been overtime.

Why is it verboten to criticize the refs? Sometimes they're horse****, and they deserve to be critiqued, just like the players and coaches. I saw two teams fighting their hearts out in bad weather yesterday and the level of officiating was far below the level of play.

[BurgundyNGold]

Yesterday was just a terrible day for the zebras -- in a LOT of games. Joey Harrington's "fumble" was a joke. Worse still, review clearly showed that is was a pass, they didn't overturn it. The week before, they actually DID overturn a Lions TD on an other than conclusive replay. I like replay, but if you're not going to use it to fix bad calls, what good is it?

The crew in the Denver game yesterday screwed both teams. They sould be send back to remedial Miller Lite ref school or something, because they don't get it. BTW, kudos to FOX for using the sideline reporter letting us in on the injury report the friggin umipre, while completely negecting an injury report on Shawn Springs -- who is only our #1 corner. Clowns.

[TotallyScrewed]

Slap is 100% right on about critiquing the officiation. Why not??

This crew sucked the entire game and didn't even get it right on review. Pathetic! Obviously, these guys were interested in something else...coffee, PJ's, what that cheerleader is wearing under that rain coat, something. Whats the criteria for becoming a ref?? It must be pretty loose or a good ol' boys club.

My "limited" take on the game is:

1) Brunell was on fire. Dang that boy was accurate and making good decisions all day...except the past the line of scrimage play. He threw well. He ran well. Remarkable!

2) The refs sucked.

3) The Broncos shouldn't look to Jake in bad weather. Don't get me wrong, I really like Jake, if Griese is the alternative, but a badly thrown, and wet, heavy and slippery ball is very tough to catch...RUN the damn ball.

Ps...Where did Rod go?

Get over it Redskin fans, you cannot blame every loss on the officials. And NO, not every beat writer or telecaster is against the skins. Yikes!

To be honest, your defensive ranking has just been knocked down a couple of notches thanks to my beloved Washington Redskins. Give respect where respect is due, the Redskins gave Denver a run for thier money and IMO outplayed them in every aspect of the game. A blocked field goal, a turnover, the tuck rule, and 2 big running plays were what won the game for Denver. When it is all said and done, thats al that matters.

I think the bad calls went in both directions and Denver won the game, but that isnt because you outplayed the Skins, its because Denver got the breaks at the right times and again thats all that matters. A hard fought game from both teams and its not a bad loss from my perspective as a Redskins team.

Please, is that not the game of football? Or is football the game of statistics and whoever has the most yards wins the game? Uh, no. That is why you have to play the game. Turnovers are apart of the game. Officiating is part of the game.

The poll asks why did the lose? They say it was the officials, or the weather, or Paul Tagiliabue. But hey, I think they forgot the most important one: The Denver Broncos simply beat us.
Actually, even over at extremskins.com (which, BTW = remedial Redskins fan board), only 29% of those polled think we got screwed by the refs. I challenge any fan base to only have 29% of them either so ill-informed or irate with anger as to think that way. Let alone, as I mentioned, a less distinguished fan board like extremeskins.com.

No need to hate dude..we are just overly passionate.

Psst...by the way your long run there was a no call block in the back. :)


Our guy was pushed into your guy.

Re stats:

Priest Holmes once gained 300 all purpose yards in a game. Chiefs lost that day.

To be honest, your defensive ranking has just been knocked down a couple of notches thanks to my beloved Washington Redskins. Give respect where respect is due, the Redskins gave Denver a run for thier money and IMO outplayed them in every aspect of the game. A blocked field goal, a turnover, the tuck rule, and 2 big running plays were what won the game for Denver. When it is all said and done, thats al that matters.

I think the bad calls went in both directions and Denver won the game, but that isnt because you outplayed the Skins, its because Denver got the breaks at the right times and again thats all that matters. A hard fought game from both teams and its not a bad loss from my perspective as a Redskins team.

Seems like the only phase of the game they didn't outplay the Broncos on was the one where you cross the goal line.

For all those pointing to the 'tuck rule' as their lame excuse, try eyeballing the execution of a particular handoff exchange on the opening drive. That probably has as much to do with the Redskin loss as the tuck rule.

Who got the breaks at the right time???

BTW, blocking a FG and stopping a 2 pt converstion isn't a BREAK!!! IT'S CALLED A PLAY. That's what the game is all about.

next skins fans will be calling themselves still undeated with one loss.

The skins were the one who got all those non-holding calls on that last drive. And if that weren't enough the broncos had two key penaltiies that extended your last drive.

A final potential game tying drive that would been halted several times if not for the lack of holding calls and then Denver penalties.

Both sides benefited and were penalized by the horrible refs for sure. But I'd take my zebra benefits at the END OF THE GAME. and thats what the skins got.

anyone else agree or disagree here?

so what are the skins griping about???

If the skins hadn't been allowed to score that cheap score at the end then maybe their fans would accept the defeat better. As it is ... the ignorant excuses still fly.

I've heard so many stupid skins excuses today having friends and family skins fans.

My favorite is the excuse that the bad weather played into it. Totally ignoring the fact that Brunella plays better in weather than jake and the bad weather nullifies and evens the home advantage because the crowds are much much quieter.

Brunellas own coach praised how well he throws a wet ball. Yet for some reason skin fans still use this excuse.

If you ask me many many things lined up for the skins.

-bad weather >>>> advantage skins O because of QB play
-home field diminished >>>> bad weather tends to quiet crowds
-both got breaks but Skins got theirs AT THE END OF THE GAME !!!!

yet the skins continue to complain...
