    The fake injuries was total BS.

    yeah i dont think that we win that game even if the refs call a perfect game yesterday. it just adds to the frustration when the team is playing like crap and the refs are that bad.

    I have to say yesterday must have been the most outrage I've seen from a crowd at a Jets game, and rightfully so.

    I am not sure I have not seen more bad calls in games this year, but the indecisiveness was the problem- lack of a whistle on the Cotchery play- when he is touch on the ground he is down immediately the ball can't pop out- its down.
    I would rather have had a officiating crew that actually had blown Thomas Jones down and not been able to overturn because of inconclusive evidence then one that I think probably just failed to blow the whistle. How many flags were picked up yesterday and how is denver not assessed a timeout or penalty after every fucking injury.

    Anyone else think Keller got interfered with on the deep ball that was overthrown to him?

    Refs have been told to let plays go to the end -- and not blow whistle.

    I don't know what the people watching on TV saw but the replay they kept showing at the stadium looked pretty clear to me that Cotchery had curled up into a ball and secured the football before the Denver player came crashing in.

    I actually thought the challenge on the punt was a bad challenge because it was only 18 yards of field position and then you've got to go the whole rest of the second half without being able to challenge the next awful call these guys were sure to make. Imagine my surprise when the refs somehow managed to uphold that awful call. I don't know which is worse, the ref that made the initial call that was 2 feet away from the Broncos player stepping on the line, or the guy in the booth that couldn't see that.

    That's waht it looked like to me and I have reviewed the tape and it still looks like that to me and it also looked like the Denver WR was out of bounds on that 2nd TD and clearly the Den cover man touched the GL so the ball should have been placed on the 20.

    The first denver touchdown was BULLSHIT plain and simple. I could not believe the call. I don't think it was the right call. Am I off base here thinking it was a blowin call. Was not the runner clearly down by contact before the ball came loose. Or am I just not ready to be an nfl ref. WTF!!!
