NFL Referees calls are really starting to get on my nerves, i mean comeon its football, they are starting to call some really stupid penaltys, tonights game green bay @ Seattle, greenbay defender accidently runs into matt hasselbeck and knocks him down, saying he hit him in the helmet, there was no evidence on any replay of him getting hit in the helmet, and just other stuff that i could put all on here, but i do not have the patience, nor do i have the video evidence of these penalties, but big football fans, u know what im talking about..

I agree. That call last basically ended the game for green bay. It would have been fourth and nine and sea hawks would have punted. But instead they get 15 more yards and a first down that leads to a touchdown. Green Bay would had the ball with lots of time left on the clock and would have only been down by 3 points. I am not saying Green Bay would have won for sure but, that call decided the game right then. What exactly is roughing the passer? If that was roughing the passer then they need to put a flag around the quarterback or play two hand touch.

Yeah I saw that hit too and I was disgusted by it. They protect the quarterback way to much. Like the Giants game where Vince Young should have been sacked but the defender pulled off because he thought threw the ball so he let go to avoid a penalty.

I agree, the NFL should fine the refs for making BS calls like the roughing the passer penalty. Even the commentators thought it was a BS call.

That call was crazy. It seems as though some QB's get "favored" more than others. Especially if they are a popular QB, or with outstanding skills, then they are more protected and the defense can't even look their way without drawing a flag. It is getting crazy.....let them play!

I blame Goddell. The new commish wants to show his power so he is having the refs crac down on everything as well.

especially when it comes to roughing the qb. you cant touch that guy without a fifteen yarder against your team. its not right and it took away all of greenbays momentum today.
