These replacement refs tonight were a sham and embarrassment to the NFL shield. How much longer is the commish and owners going to keep telling us fans everything is ok?

Not just tonight. They are murdering the entire season. It's ridiculous. The NFL makes billions a year. It could have negotiated with the refs and come to some sort of deal, but like with the players union, it wants to destroy them, so it's willing to sacrifice the game, to play a joke of a season, to save, what to them, is pennies. There have been easily half a dozen games decided by these incompetent refs. (I'm not a Packers' fan either, I just like good, fair football.)

WOW, i couldn't see the game as it was not shown on sky, but got up to watch the highlights ans WOW... Unbelievable, and to make it worse i had money on the packers -3. Shocking decision. How that can be called a TD, is beyond me, and apparently when it was reviewed it couldn't be overturned because you cannot overturn calls when they both have the ball or something...Surely the bloke looks at it in slow mo and goes that can't be ruled a touch down and over-rules it... Need the real refs back as that was a shocker.

Last night's game was a joke. Giving GB a kickoff ball for the 2 pt conversion play. Refs probably didn't even know there were different balls. Not understanding pass interference, holding, or any infractions. Usually on a hail mary it's a free for all in the end zone but Golden Tate's blatant two hand shove in Shield's back - you have to call that. And then the call. Here's a picture that sums it up:

What's even worse is because this was the Monday night game this was supposedly one of the best ref crews out there. You have to wonder if the call would have gone GB's way if the game had been in GB because these guys seem overwhelmed by the moment. These guy are in way over their heads.

Then the tools like Jerry Jones saying he didn't see it and he hasn't heard any negative feedback. If it was his precious Cowboys his plastic surgery face would be melting.

I feel sorry for the replacement refs. They are clearly not prepared, yesterday's game was a shocker. HILARIOUS!

However, they are doing whatever they can, at least we are having the games, otherwise would be NBA 2011 2.0.

NFL fans are having a taste of what football fans are used to, and that is not good at all. Chelsea 1-1 Barcelona 2009?

ROGER GOODEL, STOP BEEING SO IRACIONAL!!!!

I still havent gotten over the BS from last night....I was so mad posting would have made it worse...I honestly liked the Seahawks, after they housed Chelsea, and the Russell Wilson story, along with the beast Marshawn Lynch, but Wilson's post game interview just showed me that he has absolutely no pride and integrity in himself and the game he claims to love and left the MLB for..It is just disgusting, that jokes who have players in their fantasy teams and still tell the player to his face, and also people that used to ref Lingerie Football League are now allowed to ref a NFL Game (America's most watch TV show), it is just ridiculous.....Goddell just keeps hitting new lows, WTF is wrong with that dumb ass, like really, upholding that decision? and i thought the English FA was the worst sports governing body ever....

A stat from ESPN: About $1billion exchanged hands last night after that final play, a shitload of people lost a lot of money last night....

3 former PAC-12 refs who were dismissed for poor performance by the PAC-12 are replacement refs.

I didn't have a problem with WIlson so much as Golden Tate. When asked about the blatant two hand shove he responded twice "I don't know what you're talking about".

I blame Goodell AND the owners. Goodell is extremely powerful but he still works for the owners. These owners want to break the union and they don't care what happens. As Steve Young said it best "it's an inelastic demand" and we (the fans) keep watching.

Jerry Jones is just a billionaire salesman (owner)of the cowboys, even Deon Sanders said that (without the idiot part).....if that had happened to the cowboys?, i bet that dumb ass would have been on CNN now yelling for the world to see that his delusional super bowl winning team was robbed, NEVER EVER LISTEN TO JERRY JONES on FOOTBALL....He is that owner that wanted to be player when he was younger, but had absolutely no talent and football IQ, then ended up having enough money to have a team and become a football celebrity....I hate the fact that he even has an opinion on football, let alone that ESPN or whatever network would seem it necessary to let us know what his dumb opinion is, all he does is sell us the cowboys delusional superbowl capability that only he and Romo (QB that has forgotten what it is like to play in a playoff game).

As long as we keep watching, Goodell's power keeps rising...It is dumb that watching the game would love is increasing his power, and it is true we just wont stop watching football just because the refs are bad, but something need to be done asap....What annoys me is that the NFL is a multi-billion dollar industry, these owners get rich everyday and they are holding backs on a couple of millions in pension plans to the refs, that is cruel and unusual punishment.....lol......These replacement refs are surely doing a good job in letting us know that refereeing is a full-time job and as such the regular refs deserve their pensions and retirement plans

The Tate interview was funny, but Wilson was like "i knew that was a touchdown, we have been working too hard for it not to be", also asked how he was feeling right after he threw the ball, he said something stupid like he want nervous, that he knew it was a touchdown...If he believes that play was a touchdown, which he said more than once then he has gone way down in my book, i just annoying cause i was supporting his 5'10 ass since preseason...
