I was just about to allude to this (minus the numbers) I would expect steelers fans to be the first team to complain about officiating over the coarse of this season. It seems like almost every week they are getting calls/fines that you could say are "example" calls against their uber-aggressive defense.
Yeah that's my point. It's just bad. Not bad just for the Jets or the Steelers or the rest of the NFL for that matter. 2010 NFL refs are inbred retards. Guaranteed these zebra cocksmokers are gonna blow a critical call in the playoffs.
Yeah, but these rules are in place because of what happened to players such as Mike Webster, Justin Strzelczyk, Merril Hoge and Terry Long. Now I know three of those guys were linemen and likely did not take helmet to helmet shots from defenders who launched themselves after a running start. Point is, though, that too many players take brutal beatings in the NFL and the league wants to eliminate early stage Alzheimer's and dementia and the like. I don't understand you people who think the nasty helmet-to-helmet shots belong in the sport.
2 bad spots on one drive and the holding I can say anything else but dad complained about a hit that he thought was roughing
Jets got away with alot of physical play and holding by their DBs today. All in all, I think the bad calls probably evened out, though the late non-call (holding/interference) on a potential winning TD was pretty big.
yeah we got away with a big one down the stretch like i said, officiating is just bad. not biased, bad
Agreed. I saw Cromartie get away with holding at least twice, and Lowery could've easily been called for a PI penalty that probably would've lost us the game. The refs aren't biased, they just suck.
Lowery clearly held Sanders no call, and look at the front left part of the end zone on the final play. Our wide receiver is clearly wrapped up by the defender for at least 5 seconds, no call.
Exactly I wish more folks would realize this and not pull conspiracy theories out of their ass every week.
Huh!?!? It's a bad call if it hurts MY team. If it helps MY team then it is a good call and I won't even mention it. By the way, did you know that David Stern is a STEELERS fan!!?!! RIGGED!
Ward was being handled pretty well in the middle of the end zone. But they almost never make those type of calls in those situations.
